Was Alonzo Lee Recruiting for North Carolina A&T…On Morgan State's Dime?
Written by HBCU Digest, Posted in Morgan State University, Sports
It’s a viable question when you consider the strong recruiting class that North Carolina A&T just signed up, and the nine players that Morgan State University was able to bring in. The rumors about Alonzo Lee coming to A&T were well in motion prior to the announcement in early January, so there’s no question Lee had the benefit of selling players on wherever he was destined to wind up.
But the ethical question does come up on if Lee was recruiting players to Morgan, only to then sell them on his vision for A&T once the new year rolled around. Did Morgan State, in essence, have Lee on the payroll while he was bolstering the squad at his future place of employment?
The rumors continue, but they appear to be getting louder. Alonzo Lee is expected to be named the next head football coach at North Carolina A&T, with interim head coach George Ragsdale staying on as assistant head coach.
