No, we didn't. Get over your beaten wife syndrome from spending too much time wallowing with bama trash. NCAA said we didn't, and put it in writing in public, something never before done by them. Cam and his parents say we didn't, and he has no reason to continue to deny it that way today. As he said himself, "You can't conceal that kind of money in my community". And he got around on a scooter. Back in the day, Bo Jackson didn't even own a car until his first pro contract was signed, but some of the bama RBs of that era were from near where I grew up, and they had a Porsche and a BMW, coming from a little three room shack on the side of the highway. No doubt we had $100 handshakes and the like, but we were never competitive with what was handed out at bama or LSU.
