Confessions of a Fixer: How one former coach perpetuated a cheating scheme
by ButterflyEffect

    The fixer’s name is Mr. White. He spoke to The Chronicle on the condition that his first name not be used, for fear of retribution. He is a married, 42-year-old father of two. Over a nearly 20-year career, he worked for four colleges, from the mid-Atlantic region to the South.

    His side business was lucrative. One year, he says, he made more than $40,000 arranging classes. But he says money wasn’t his motive.

    Part of it was about the players. He believes that many would not have earned a major-college scholarship without his help.

    The other part was about his career. He wanted a big-time coaching job, and he figured this could give him exposure to many programs.
