Clemons’ Conversations Reportedly Being Probed By FBI

Missourinet affiliate KFRU in Columbia is reporting that the FBI has obtained over two-dozen hours of Rickey Clemons’ phone conversations recorded the Boone County Jail. They’ve also obtained mail he received at the jail. The FBI wouldn’t comment on why they acquired the tape other than to say it’s part of an on-going investigation. Clemons, who was dismissed from the Missouri basketball team last month, is expected to be released on Sunday. The University of Missouri sports information department declined to comment to the Missourinet on the situation and a call placed to Athletic Director Mike Alden’s office last night, has not been returned. The NCAA is also investigating claims made by Clemons former girlfriend. She says he received money and clothes at Mizzou and that he had at least one paper written for him.
