Louisville men’s basketball head coach Rick Pitino was ousted by the university after the FBI alleged in a criminal complaint that coaches with the program participated in a scheme to pay a recruit’s family.

In addition to the 29 schools that said they had conducted internal reviews in their men’s basketball programs, another 35 schools and the Big East Conference said they were not specifically responding to the federal probe. But many of the “no” responses came with the caveat that the school’s athletic department is always reviewing its compliance.

Twenty schools declined to respond to the AP’s survey, including one university that declined to respond on the record but acknowledged privately that it was reviewing its program because of the probe.

The vast majority of schools surveyed have shoe deals with Nike, Adidas or Under Armour.

When asked about the NCAA basketball scandal last week, Drew said: “First of all, I think every college coach is disappointed, because we always want our game and what we love to do to be shown in a positive light. So that’s unfortunate. At the same time, there’s a lot of good that goes on with our game. There’s a lot of young people that get degrees and become successful and do it the right way. We just try to make sure that the good gets accented more than the negative.”
