Specific Wrongdoings

The specifically proven allegations are documented from the NCAA published findings.

1. During a December 1989 visit by the student-athlete to the representative's residence, the representative provided between $400 and $500 cash and four new tires (approximate value of $350) for the young man's automobile.

2. During a February 1990 telephone conversation, the representative directed the student-athlete to mail his two delinquent car payment coupons to the representative. Subsequent to this telephone conversation, the young man mailed the coupons to the representative; and on February 20, 1990, the representative paid $299 and $278.88 to satisfy the debt utilizing money orders purchased near the representative's business.

3. In February 1990, the representative visited the young man's residence in Auburn where he provided between $100 and $200 cash to the student-athlete. In the spring of 1990, the representative provided $1,200 cash to a relative, who drove to the student-athlete's residence where he provided $1,200 cash to the young man.

4. During a December 1990 visit by the student-athlete to the representative's office, the representative provided $540 cash to the young man, of which $500 was a Christmas gift and $40 was to purchase gasoline.

5. Following the 1990 Hall of Fame Bowl game, the representative provided $100 cash to the student-athlete for the young man's performance in the game. Subsequent to the Hall of Fame Bowl game and prior to the 1990 football season, the representative and the student-athlete discussed a bonus payment system based upon the young man's performance in football games (e.g., big hits, touchdowns and interceptions). As a result of this agreement, the representative provided cash totaling at least $700 to the student-athlete after 1990 home football contests.

6. In the spring of 1991, following the completion of the young man's eligibility, the representative visited the student-athlete's trailer home and placed at least $250 in cash inside a trailer apartment sign. Thereafter, the representative telephoned the student-athlete and instructed the young man to look behind the trailer sign for the cash.
