The fbi is certainly involved. Their investigation is targetted at a
casino owner (a big auburn booster) and a banker for matters unrelated
to football. The fbi wiretapped conversations between the two and
discovered details of payments through the bank to auburn players. The
fbi is not investigating that, but the ncaa is.
