Back when Alabama got caught, I was working at a radio station in Tuscaloosa and we were doing a show on the NOA.
As part of background research for the hosts, I emailed whoever the NCAA official in charge of investigations was (that was almost 20 years ago, can't remember the name) and asked what was their adjudication standard in these matters: preponderance of evidence, reasonable doubt, the existence of verifiable links (like receipts, car titles, deposit slips, emails, taped phone calls, etc.)?
The response I received was that the committee was free to decide the credibility of any evidence presented and free to determine their own adjudication standards.
Essentially, this is like that Survivor TV show. They either vote you off the island or they don't.

I assume in OM case if they interview 5 players who all same virtually the same thing such as where they met, who they met with, and how much was involved then you can accuse them by reasonable doubt. I doubt you can actually prove money changed hands but if a number say the same thing then you can assume they are telling the truth.
