You still didn't illustrate what you think actually happened, but talked about ineligibility and penalties.
I'm glad the NCAA is done with this. Sad that some Duke fans still want to reach negative characterizations without having additional facts.
He doesn't illustrate, because that WOULD be speculation. Needless to say however, if Lance Thomas had some "legit by NCAA rules" method of getting 100K in credit, he would not have needed to bother not talking or having a confidentiality agreement.
Note again that CDu, like the rest of us, aren't assuming that Duke did anything itself wrong - for example it's entirely possible that Lance got credit by the Jeweler anticipating future earnings as a means to pay it off (which the NCAA forbids) - but even THAT would be a violation.
This is not something to be proud of. This is something to wish it would go away.
