College basketball scandal widens with guilty plea and new witness

New York Attorney Charles Tucker pleaded guilty to attempting to fix games. Dennis Reed of Bowling Green University was called in for questioning as the probe expands. District Attorney Hogan declined to reveal details beyond Reed being another player tied to the investigation. Tucker faces sentencing after a prior indictment on bribery and conspiracy involving players from Connecticut, Columbia, NYU, and Oregon. The case now involves 37 players from 22 colleges.
