On Tuesday afternoon we learned that ESPN’s John Barr was planning on unveiling a “fresh story” regarding the Louisville men’s basketball scandal on Sunday morning’s edition of Outside The Lines.

Considering that this new story would be airing on Selection Sunday, most assume that no ground breaking news would be revealed. Had ESPN had anything substantial, they’d get it out as soon as possible, right?

On Thursday evening the four letter network released a preview clip of Sunday’s Outside The Lines episode. This is where things got a little strange. It appears that John Barr has tracked down Andre McGee and he’s an Uber driver.

The preview doens’t show much, however Jason Riley of WDRB has some notable updates.

Andre McGee did not talk to @espn, I've heard. They repeatedly asked him to comment after getting in his Uber. McGee asked them to leave — Jason Riley (@JasonRileyWDRB) March 11, 2016

It was a 3-person ESPN crew w/ reporter John Barr.They got into the Uber driven by McGee and pulled out camera. Told him this was his chance — Jason Riley (@JasonRileyWDRB) March 11, 2016

McGee said he didn't want to talk. Reporter said that was a bad idea. McGee asked them to get out. Far as I can tell, that is the interview — Jason Riley (@JasonRileyWDRB) March 11, 2016

I have not seen the @espn promo but if they are saying they got McGee on camera, that is technically true. But no substantive statement — Jason Riley (@JasonRileyWDRB) March 11, 2016
