Well, there is a difference between a booster paying a kid to go to a school v. an agent giving a kid money to sign with his agency in terms of how the NCAA views it as it relates to gaining a competitive advantage.
What rocked USC so hard was the fact that agents were basically running all over campus and USC continually and "intentionally" turned a blind eye to it. If Alabama can show that it has been, and is doing everything in its power to educate athletes about agents and keep agents away from players, I think the NCAA goes light on the program itself. Saban is certainly not the poster child for having an agent friendly program. He hates their guts and publicly says so.

Honestly the best summarization I've seen all day here.
