ABC News reported that during the 1987-88 season that as many as four NC State players, including forward Charles Shackleford, conspired to hold down the scores of four games in return for cash payments from a New Jersey contractor. According to the report, one of the games was March 6, 1988 against Wake Forest. NC State defeated Wake Forest by four points, after being favored by 16. According to Shackleford's lawyer and agent, Sal DiFazio, Shackleford never shaved points, although he admitted taking $65,000 from two men[1]. One of these men was identified by ABC as the key figure in the point-shaving scheme (Los Angeles Times, 3/3/90).--Wolfpak4ever (talk) 20:05, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
