The Boatright family is considering legal action against the NCAA.

The NCAA released detailed information Saturday about the case involving UConn freshman Ryan Boatright who was cleared Saturday to return to game action.

Boatright played in Sunday's 50-48 loss to Notre Dame in Hartford. He had six points and two rebounds.

Scott Tompsett, the attorney for Boatright's mother Tanesha, is accusing the NCAA of violating the family's privacy by releasing information to the public. He also said that the NCAA's statement contains "false and misleading information."

Tompsett released a statement Sunday morning.

Here's the full statement:

"I am astounded that the NCAA released confidential information about Ryan's case. Ryan and his mother Tanesha cooperated fully with the NCAA with the clear understanding that the information they provided would be kept confidential and would not be released to the public. The NCAA has violated the Boatrights' privacy by releasing their personal information.

"Moreover, the NCAA's statement contains false and misleading information. For example, the statement implies that the benefits in question were provided to influence Ryan's decision either to attend UConn or chose an agent, if and when he goes pro. That is false and the NCAA knows it.

"In fact, the two individuals who provided the benefits are friends of the Boatrights. They were simply helping the family with no expectation of repayment or reciprocation. And there's not a shred of evidence that they influenced Ryan's decision to attend UConn or that they intend to represent Ryan if he ever goes pro.

"The public also should know that the NCAA never told Tanesha and Ryan who made the accusations about them or told them the substance of the accusations so they could defend themselves. Further, contrary to the NCAA's statement, neither Tanesha nor Ryan received a car from anyone.

"Until the NCAA released its statement, the Boatrights considered this matter closed. But the NCAA's improper release of private and false information has caused the Boatrights to consider their legal options."

The NCAA issued the following statement in response to allegations made Tompsett:

"Scott Tompsett's allegations are not accurate. The NCAA statement regarding Ryan Boatright is factual and in response to numerous public misstatements and the resulting inaccurate reporting by some media. The NCAA acted appropriately to ensure the misleading accounts did not continue. The NCAA did not violate the student-athlete or family's privacy in any way, nor did it imply that the benefits were used to influence Ryan Boatright to attend the University of Connecticut.

"In fact, both UConn and Mr. Boatright should be commended for their cooperation throughout the process to gather information. The school and student-athlete's dedication to uncover the facts should be viewed as a positive example, not somehow construed negatively. Had Ms. Boatright cooperated fully from the beginning, this matter could have been settled months ago."

In other news, UConn president Susan Herbst released a statement about the Boatright case earlier this morning.

Here's what Herbst had to say:

"We are pleased that Ryan is now eligible to play basketball, and thank his family, friends, fellow students, faculty, coaches and everyone who has supported him and the university over the last several months.

"This young man has shown tremendous patience and poise all the while in the national spotlight. This is a strength of character that is seldom demanded of college freshmen and I am extraordinarily proud of him, our team and our coaching staff.

"As far as the process that took place over the last few months, the University does have ideas about how it might be improved and we would like continue this dialogue."
