Zion's Stepfather Took $400K - Will the NCAA Investigate Duke Now?

Duke is the cream of the crop in NCAA basketball and a standard bearer for the league, but after more ugly court filings by Gina Ford, things are not looking good for the blue blood program. According to ESPN,

Zion Williamson's stepfather solicited and accepted a $400,000 payment from a marketing agent in October 2018 prior to Williamson's only season with the Duke Blue Devils, according to a court motion and sworn affidavit filed by his former marketing representative's attorneys in federal court on Thursday.
Gina Ford's attorneys say the affidavit and other exhibits show that Williamson was ineligible when he played for the Blue Devils in 2018-19 because his stepfather, Lee Anderson, received impermissible benefits from Slavko Duric, a Canadian marketing agent.

This comes after months of battles with Gina Ford, Williamson's scorned marketing agent. Is this the time for the NCAA to step in and do their own investigation? You tell us in the poll below.
