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.

Famous quotes containing the word specific:

    Patriotism is proud of a country’s virtues and eager to correct its deficiencies; it also acknowledges the legitimate patriotism of other countries, with their own specific virtues. The pride of nationalism, however, trumpets its country’s virtues and denies its deficiencies, while it is contemptuous toward the virtues of other countries. It wants to be, and proclaims itself to be, “the greatest,” but greatness is not required of a country; only goodness is.
    Sydney J. Harris (1917–1986)
