If the NCAA was serious about stopping it they could organize some sting operations pretty easily.
I think the issue is that NCAA rules are designed for things that the schools do wrong. With Bagmen, the school isn't doing anything wrong. The school doesn't officially know. The Bagmen do not donate money to the school. The Bagmen do not interact with the kids on campus. Many bagmen don't even go to games. The Bagman system is set up in a way that totally keeps the school in the clear. If anything happens that can connect a bagman to the school...that bagman is out of the circle.
I think the bagman system is beyond the reach of NCAA regs and that's why no one ever gets nailed for it. I think it would take the Feds declaring that the bagman system violates law in some way (money laundering, mail frraud..stuff like that). It would take the Feds using Organized Crime statutes against these guys to stop it, and why in the world world they ever go to that expense?
