What specific penalties did the school receive?
per a state rep that helped write the law....
quote:
There is a law on the books in Georgia designed to punish anyone who gets a student athlete to do something illegal that in turn causes the school to lose money. The amount of money can be perceived or actual.
"In the law we put it that way," said state representative Chuck Sims. "Because you really don't know how much money they may have gotten if they had to go to the Sun Bowl versus the Rose Bowl."

That is a law that creates a civil cause of action. There are no charges for the state to bring.
The school could sue the guy, but he is likely judgement proof. Additionally, NYC's point is probably correct based on the way the statute is worded.
Very unlikely that UGA sues, imo.
