(AP) — Brian Lee Tribble, who prosecutors say supplied the co caine that killed basketball star Len Bias, surrendered Monday and was jailed when he couldn’t post $250,()()() bond. Tribble, a long-time friend of Bias, was indicted Friday on charges of distributing cocaine, possessing cocaine with intent to distribute, possessing cocaine and possessing PCP, said his lawyer, William Cahill. David Gregg and Terry Long, two of Bias’ teammates at the University of Maryland, were served notice of their indictment on charges of possesion of co caine, but they were not required to turn themselves in, said Prince George’s County Sheriff James V. Aluisi. Tribble has asked for a hearing before a circuit court judge to seek a reduction in his bail and is scheduled for a 1:30 p.m. bond hearing today. Arthur A. Marshall Jr., state’s attorney for Prince George’s County, said before the grand jury returned the indictments that he believed Tribble supplied the cocaine that killed Bias. Allegations (continued from pagel) to the student body, the Times Herald said. A&M Head Basketball Coach Shelby Metcalf and Athletic Director Jackie Sherrill were unavailable for comment, when The Battalion at tempted to contact them Monday. Assistant coach John Thornton told The Battalion Monday that it was the athletic department’s policy not to comment on any allegations or hearsay. Metcalf was contacted by The Bryan-College Station Eagle Satur day, and said, “I think (the accusa tions are) groundless, but I’ve been told not to comment.” The Times Herald quoted former Aggies Kenny Brown, Phil James, Tyren Naulls, Darnell Williams, Reggie Roberts and Tyrone Emer son as saying they had received pre paid airline tickets arranged by coaches to travel home from College Station. James and Naulls are from Los Angeles, Williams is from New York, and Emerson is from Chicago, Ill. Roberts, the Times Herald re ported, said he received prepaid tickets one summer while at A&M to Fort Walton Beach, Fla., so he could visit his parents who moved there from McKinney. Brown was quoted by the newspa per as listing several A&M violations. Kenny Brown Alleges several Texas A&M basketball violations. According to the Times Herald, Brown said: • The summer before his enroll ment at A&M Metcalf gave him a plane ticket to travel to Tucson, Ariz.. Metcalf did not ask to be re imbursed for the ticket. • Former assistant coach and re cruiting coordinator John Widdi- combe reimbursed him $80 to $100 per car trip he made to his home in Memphis, Tenn. • He attended Hill College, a ju nior college in Hillsboro, without paying dormitory fees or tuition. He and then-A&M recruit Lowell Mc Henry also received small amounts of cash for meals by Hill athletic di rector and basketball coach Ray Rob erts. Roberts, the paper reported, den ied handing out cash tp players or knowledge of A&M players attend ing Hill without paying. Two other A&M players, Reggie Roberts and Brian Marshall, the Times Herald reported, said they believed A&M paid their tuition while at Hill College. The newspaper also quoted Rob erts, Naulls, Emerson and former Aggie forward A1 Culton as saying they could obtain rental cars through members of the coaching staff to use when recruits were visit ing the campus. Fred Burton, a forward in 1984- 85 and part of last season, said Met calf stopped supplying rental cars af ter one player “really took advantage of it,” but he was able to borrow Widdicombe’s car several times, the Times Herald said. Burton, James, Williams and Cul ton were quoted as saying they sold complimentary tickets to boosters and athletic team managers. Burton, the paper reported, said he sold his tickets for the 1985 tour nament for between $400 and $500.
