Same with the OLOL case which had nothing to do with LSU at all.
Honestly, you can't claim that. A football player's parent got money from that. That's where a wannabe booster fricks up a program.

I think LSU gets hit somewhat for the OLOL stuff, but not directly. The Funes stuff is bad and the fact that the place he was stealing from is a hospital is absolutely abhorrent. It also doesn't help LSU that the person he was using to funnel the money is a former player's father is not exactly ideal, but I don't know how much of an NCAA issue it is and how much of a criminal issue it is.
Between those issues with football, the basketball allegations, and the tennis coaches doing who the frick knows, a LOIC charge is certainly within the realm of possibility. I think LSU gets by with just under that, something like a year or 2 postseason ban and 15 scholarships over 3 years for football. I'm not as in the know on basketball sanctions, so maybe what Tennessee got when Pearl lied to the NCAA.

How many times have you heard of a player getting money from a booster and being required to give some of the money back to the booster?
If Les Miles was lining up Funes to pay the players and knew that Funes was requiring them to give some of the money back Miles should go to jail for being dumb.

I can 100% claim that because thats the truth.
Its still technically a violation and LSU will be punished for it even though it had nothing to do with them.
The NCAA needs to better define the term "booster," pretty much anyone on this board would be considered a booster which is just laughable.
