What are the chances the teams high school girls play on will get caught up in the scandal rocking men's BB?

Are the girls teams also connected to the apparel companies?

Could there be other groups/individuals who are involved in things similar to what we are reading about on the men's side?
 
I would anticipate some of that on a much lower scale. It is apparent that some scouts do have influence.

There is a major difference that puts more risk in the men's game. If a top women's prospect graduates and goes pro after four years, she might get $70,000 per year---maybe. The guy will get a signing bonus of $3 million and probably $5 million per year in his first contract. There is money for payoffs. There is enough money involved that an Adidas contract might make millions for Adidas. If you put millions on the table, someone is going to want a piece of it enough to bend the rules.
