Former Tar Heel Player Under Investigation: A former North Carolina player has been accused of raising money under false pretenses for a charity group home. Former Tar Heel and Gamecock Larry Davis held a golf tournament to benefit a group home for troubled teens. But it was later found that Davis never opened such a home. When approached about the accusations, Davis walked away from a TV interview. He promised to talk about how much money was raised and where it was spent, but since then, Davis has not returned phone calls or e-mails asking for those numbers. North Carolina’s solicitation licensing branch ordered Davis to cease and desist raising money for the charity and fined him $2,000 for taking “contributions by false pretenses.” Davis has two months to appeal the state’s ruling or pay a $2,000 fine.
