Well, I guess it's not against NCAA rules.
Wish they would've provided a link with an explanation, but it is what it is.

How is that better?
It sounds like a real pain. Everyone has to fly in on a specific date to eat at a specific restaurant? Taste is subjective. My favorite dish at my favorite restaurant is grilled octopus and mortadella. I recognize that is not a fine meal for some. Likewise, just as the idea of going to Cheesecake Factory is abhorrent to me, many people just love the place.

I think Jason's post after yours explains the problem here. As soon as one school gets a sanctioned way to hand cash to ex-players, the Kentucky's of the world will be on that lickity split.
Can't the NCAA just declare thia a secondary violation? My understanding is that declaring it a secondary violation is basically the NCAA saying, "this is a violation, but probably no harm is done, so we're acknowledging it happened but not doing anything."

And then there is the bequest of 100k from Burgess McSwain's estate to Debbie Crowder, to 'take care of her dogs'...maybe I don't have the details exactly right, but all the folks in Orange County have everyone's best interests in mind, and are absolutely on the up-and-up. Or somethings like that.
(personally, I think that was a neat gesture from Dean, but I also think he wasn't planning on it being headline news, either.)
