An important part of the NCAA case, according to the NY Times article, is that the Tennessee NIL group (the Volunteer Club) used a private jet to fly Nico Iamaleava to Knoxville while he was being recruited.
The article states the Volunteer Club is closely linked to a marketing agency called Spyre Sports Group. The two entities share the same top officers and the same address in Knoxville. Which is gonna make it hard for Tennessee to prove there's no overlap between their recruiting efforts and their use of NIL funds.

I hope that they get their 2022 season vacated. Selfishly, as an Alabama fan, that game in Knoxville still burns me up.
Can’t convince me that a school willing to spend like that on a HS QB while cheating in hundreds of violations didn’t have boosters willing to bribe officials.
If I’m a booster putting up $3M for a QB why would I not spend $100k on an official(s) to break a streak against my rival?
How would anyone ever know? The officials aren’t audited or held accountable for “bad” calls.
The sport is corrupt to the marrow right now. Players are bought, gamble, likely point shave, are tampered with, secured with hookers and shopping new deals the moment they sign their current deal.
It’s a disgusting sport and I’ve been staring at my ticket renewal form asking myself why I would pay thousands to watch it other than tradition at this point.
