Brendan Paul, the individual apprehended by federal agents this week and accused of being Sean “Diddy” Combs’ alleged “drug mule,” previously played basketball at Syracuse University.

Paul, aged 25, was taken into custody by federal agents at Miami-Opa Locka Executive Airport on Monday, where he was attempting to board a private jet with the rapper.

Authorities, collaborating with Homeland Security and Border Patrol, reportedly discovered substances suspected to be cocaine and marijuana edibles in Paul’s possession.

Before transferring to Division II Fairmont State in 2020, Paul served as a walk-on player for Syracuse’s basketball team for two seasons.
