ATLANTA — Georgia associate athletic director Claude Felton said the NCAA has requested permission to conduct an inquiry on campus.
Felton said Georgia officials assured the NCAA it will receive full cooperation. He said the NCAA has asked that athletic association officials, coaches and student-athletes decline comment until the inquiry is completed.
Felton said the notification from the NCAA came late Wednesday afternoon. He told The Associated Press the instructions from the NCAA prevent him from disclosing any details about the reason for the inquiry.
The inquiry comes as three SEC teams — Florida, Alabama and South Carolina — are investigating allegations involving improper contact with an agent.
