Former IU coach Kelvin Sampson released a statement today through his publicist in response to the not-so-nice things IU had to say about him in their letter to the NCAA. Here is the well-crafted response Sampson's lawyers composed:

"In no way did I ever hide or withhold information from Indiana University's compliance department. I vehemently deny the inference that I made and concealed impermissible calls. The NCAA has never alleged that I initiated any illegal phone calls to recruits while serving as the head coach at Indiana. I always provided Indiana with everything they requested, including all documents and phone records."

Sounds like he's clean to me. What do you think?
