Former Louisville assistant coach Dino Gaudio has been charged with felony extortion in a claim filed Tuesday in the United States Western District of Kentucky.
Men s basketball head coach Chris Mack fired Gaudio in March. The claim alleges that Gaudio threatened to report allegations of recruiting violations to the media unless the university paid his salary for an additional 17 months or in a lump sum equivalent to 17 months salary.
Gaudio allegedly went to an unidentified Louisville athletics personnel member and said he had videos of prospective student athletes that the basketball program had created, as well as evidence that the Cardinal graduate assistants had participated in practice. Both would qualify as Level II NCAA violations.
