Attorney General Troy King’s office today began a review of information of a sports agent’s alleged contact with former University of Alabama offensive lineman Andre Smith. “The next step would be one of two things, the review would not show us compelling evidence to investigate or it would, and we would act accordingly,” Bence said. “We don’t take these matters lightly and we intend to give them a thorough review.” The Alabama Uniform Athlete Agents Act requires sports agents to register in Alabama and prohibits certain contacts with athletes such as giving athletes money before a contract is signed. It also requires sports agents to notify university officials if a contract has been made with an athlete.
