college football » Florida and the NCAA are investigating an allegation that former Gators offensive lineman Maurkice Pouncey received $100,000 from a representative of a sports agent before last season ended, ESPN.com reported Monday. The allegation stated Pouncey received the money between Florida's loss to Alabama in the Southeastern Conference title game and its Sugar Bowl win over Cincinnati, according to the report. The alleged representative was not named.
Pouncey was selected 18th overall in this year's NFL draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Pouncey's agent is Joel Segal , but the allegation is not necessarily tied to him. A message left at Segal's office Monday seeking comment was not immediately returned.
If the allegation is true, Pouncey could be ruled ineligible for the Sugar Bowl game and Florida might have to vacate the victory among other potential penalties.
