[edit] accurate?
i removed:
- He got Michigan in trouble by giving money from his illegal gambling ring to players. He also allegedly gave more than $800,000 in cash to Michigan State University point guard Mateen Cleaves. (It should be noted that there is no evidence on the Web that corroborates this assertion, other than sources that refer to this Wikipedia entry as the original source.)
I cannot find info on this. can someone verify it? Kingturtle 05:02, 30 August 2005 (UTC)
McCord is still alive, and was not a supporter of Michigan. Typical wikipedia misinformation.
[edit] Please Delete Booster Information
There was a Dr. James McCord who graduated from the University of Michigan, and he was likely the booster. (http://www.medicineatmichigan.org/magazine/2004/spring/classnotes/default.asp). The Watergate James McCord was born in Okalahoma and graduated from George Washington University before joining the CIA. It makes no sense that he would all of a sudden become a Michigan booster after his conviction.
