MOON TOWNSHIP, Pa. (AP) -- A Robert Morris internal investigation into former basketball coach Mike Rice found no evidence of the ''coaches against player'' brawls alleged by an ex-Rutgers employee, though one former Colonial contacted by the school claims Rice used anti-gay slurs on several occasions and engaged in a shoving match with a player during halftime of a game.
