Kansas clears AD in equipment probe

The University of Kansas says an internal investigation has cleared athletic director Lew Perkins of any wrongdoing in connection with the loan of exercise equipment.

A former Kansas employee had claimed Perkins accepted the equipment for his home use in exchange for giving some people the chance to buy basketball tickets in prime locations at Allen Fieldhouse.

Many people had demanded that Perkins be fired.

But the university said Wednesday night that the investigation found no evidence to substantiate the former employee's claims.
