Golden State Warriors All-Star power forward David Lee had surgery Thursday

CHICAGO -- Penn State athletic director Sandy Barbour said opposing programs are lying to recruits by telling them the Nittany Lions could be put on probation by the NCAA in the wake of recent allegations in the Jerry Sandusky scandal.Its not factual, she said Tuesday at Big Ten Media Days. Its one thing to take facts and skew them a little bit. Its another thing not to be factual.Barbour said the NCAA is very pleased with how Penn State handled the matter and that the governing body as well as the Big Ten considers the matter closed.Penn State is free of sanctions and back to the full 85 scholarships, but it cant escape a shadow cast by one of the biggest scandals to hit a college program.The Sandusky case has been in the headlines again lately because of recently disclosed allegations from men who have accused Sandusky of sexual abuse that raised new questions about what his fellow Penn State assistant coaches might have seen or known before his November 2011 arrest -- and why they have largely kept quiet. The allegations have also raised questions about just how far back late coach Joe Paterno knew of the situation.Negative recruiting is nothing new and its hardly a surprise that other schools in recent years might have used the Sandusky case against Penn State. But if what Barbour is saying is true, thats taking things to a different level. And coach James Franklin said there are issues that might need to be addressed at the conference level.Barbour would not reveal which schools -- or how many -- have been lying to recruits about potential sanctions in the wake of the recent Sandusky developments. But Michigan States Mark Dantonio said its not him or his staff.Its not our MO. And thats not how we do business, he said.---IN MEMORY: Dantonio delivered heartfelt and poignant comments about former Spartans punter Mike Sadler, who along with Nebraska punter Sam Foltz died in a car crash after attending a kicking camp in Wisconsin over the weekend.He was a giver, Dantonio said. He lived life. There was no take in Mike Sadler. He made everybodys life around him better. Well miss him terribly.Sadler was a four-year starter and four-time academic All-American at Michigan State. He finished his college career after the 2014 season.He was known for his sense of humor during his time in East Lansing, even launching his own mock Heisman Trophy campaign one season with the hashtag (hash)sadler4heisman. He also regularly exchanged lines on Twitter with the (at)FauxPelini account, a popular parody of former Nebraska and current Youngstown State coach Bo Pelini.To Dantonio, he was simply a joy to be around, the sort of player who forged relationships with every coach.Foltz, a senior was a three-year starter and the Big Tens punter of the year last season. He earned a degree in agronomy in May.Nebraska did not attend Big Ten Media Days, though Dantonio said he talked to coach Mike Riley.Sam seemed to be just the same type of person, Dantonio said. Well respected.---DUNN WITH BUCKEYES: Ohio State coach Urban Meyer slammed the door on running back Brionte Dunn returning after being kicked off the team for violating rules.Theres no chance that Brionte will come back, he said.Dunn was the Buckeyes most experienced running back and was expected to compete for a starting spot vacated by Ezekiel Elliott, who was taken as the fourth overall pick in the NFL draft by the Dallas Cowboys. Dunn played in 21 games in three seasons, running for 196 yards and two touchdowns.Meyer said freshman Mike Weber figures to start at running back with Dunn gone.---FIRST IMPRESSIONS: Illinois quarterback Wes Lunt is making quite an impression on new coach Lovie Smith. The senior reminds him in some ways of former Bears quarterback Kyle Orton.Kyle made great decisions, threw the ball to the right person, good leader, Smith said. Teammates really liked him, believed in him. Our players feel the same way about Wes. Wes is a good athlete though.Lunt threw for 2,761 yards, 14 touchdowns and six interceptions while leading the Big Ten in completions per game (22.5) as a junior.

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Golden State Warriors All-Star power forward David Lee had surgery Thursday to repair a torn right hip flexor, an injury that forced him out of the starting lineup and limited his minutes in the playoffs. The procedure was performed by Dr. William Meyers at the Vincera Institute in Philadelphia, the team said. Lee will start rehabilitation in the next 10 to 14 days. No further timetable on his recovery was announced. At the end of last season, Lee had surgery to repair a torn abdominal muscle and returned before the start of training camp. Lee hurt his hip in the playoff opener at Denver on April 20, when he banged into JaVale McGee on a drive and landed on his right side. The team originally called it a season-ending injury, but Lee made a surprising return off the bench in the Game 66 clincher at home against the Nuggets.dddddddddddd. After sitting out the first two games in the second round against San Antonio, Lees minutes increased over the final four contests. He finished the playoffs -- the first appearance of his eight-year career -- averaging 5 points and 4.7 rebounds in 10.9 minutes per game. During the regular season, he averaged 18.5 points, 11.2 rebounds and 3.5 assists. Lee led the NBA with 56 double-doubles and became Golden States first All-Star since Latrell Sprewell in 1997. While the Warriors made a remarkable run in the playoffs without Lee, general manager Bob Myers insisted at his season-ending news conference May 20 that Lee will remain an integral part of the team next season. Lee has three years left on a six-year deal worth about $80 million. ' ' '
