Duncanville High Girls Basketball Coach Resigns Amid Investigation Into Program

The report was sent to the University Scholastic League (UIL) Thursday and centers around a now junior player.

While there are text messages from Self-Morgan showing she looked into getting that player's mother a job to get the teen to transfer to Duncanville High School, there is no proof she followed through and with that, they said there was no evidence of recruiting.

The report summarized, "insufficient evidence exists to find that Cathy Self-Morgan engaged in prohibited recruiting."

The investigation did show problems with how Duncanville's athletic facilities are being used, but there weren't any UIL violations.
