SEATTLE -- A former football program manager and a former graduate assistant football coach have been implicated in a University of Washington fraud investigation that found more than $40,000 in unauthorized long distance phone-card charges.
The probe focused on charges between September 1998 and February 2002, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer reported Saturday.
Head football coach Rick Neuheisel, who was hired in January 1999, was told last week that the university had "just cause'' to fire him amid revelations that he participated in a neighborhood gambling pool involving the past two NCAA basketball tournaments. Coaches are not allowed to gamble on college sports under NCAA rules. He is undergoing a termination process that is expected to take several weeks
