There was no rule against that airplane ride.

Well that is just not true. Somebody not directly associated with the school, who was not related to the recruit and would be categorized as a booster, arranged for and paid for an unofficial visit for a recruit. That has been against the rules since pretty much day one. The rule even specifies directly that people outside of a recruit’s immediate family can not pay for travel. That happened. It is cut and dried. They consider that improper benefits, no different than a Mcdonalds bag full of cash. It was clearly against the rules in place at the time.
