According to Dana O’Neil at ESPN, Villanova is investigating whether men’s basketball assistant coach Doug Martin lied about his career in collegiate basketball.

In a bio he submitted to the school, Martin included that he played basketball at UW-Green Bay. Apparently, Green Bay has no records of a Doug Martin ever playing there. Green Bay’s website also lists stats from each basketball season. Martin’s name can’t be found there, either. 

Even a former player that would have been on the team the years Martin claims to have played at UW-Green Bay said that he never played with anyone named Doug Martin.

Villanova and coach Jay Wright are looking into the matter further.
