Woah NCAA is now pursuing rules that would allow them to penalize Donde and other university administrators. Crazy.
More illegal and vividly corrupt "rules" from the racketeering organization that is the NCAA. Or what else do you call protecting favorites and assailing their rivals on a systemic level and grand scale with the known result of determining outcomes?

The easy comparison is the NCAA going after Tennessee over Nico.
The NCAA passed its collectives are boosters "guideline" for the specific purpose of a future case against Tennessee (which plan was already in the works). And they did it AFTER Nico was already committed.
However much the corrupt weasels in the media choose to ignore this manifest fact of an
ex post facto rule or law with fraudulent intent, the truth is still there plainly for anyone who has eyes to see.

Moreover, if the NCAA wished in earnest to
retroactively enforce a "guideline" on boosters, and the NCAA earnestly wished to choose a big case to "make a statement," then the NCAA's only honest choice would have been to investigate Saban's entire tenure at Alabama.
Bama fans and Saban defenders openly
brag that Saban was "clever" and "smart" because he ran his gigantic bag game in money and prizes, houses and cars, through
boosters. That's exactly the substance of Saban's bogus claim to implausible "plausible deniability." Saban's illicit booster network and Saban's "plausible deniability" are two sides of one and the same coin. They are identical in fact.
And once the investigation "uncovers" what everyone in the world already knows, that Kirby imported Saban's bag game and booster racket wholesale, then go after UGA. Two vivid cases of LOIC.
