So the guy took money for a service he provided?

True!! Because he never would've gotten close enough to signing a Top 50 recruit to sniff his jock strap!!

Apparently they don't have enough to charge the banana guy. At least not yet. I doubt they really go after him as that doesn't appear to be the primary end game.

And that's a valuable lesson for you UAgrad93.
Sometimes you shouldn't sniff a man's jock strap just because he is good at sports.

1). It clearly names Collin Sexton as the Atlanta based player. So stop denying it’s him.
2). It clearly portrays the fact that a meeting did happen with these guy and Collin. So stop denying it did.
3). It starts with Baker receiving $15,000 in TOTAL for the meeting, then goes on to say Baker pocketed $10,000.
Where did you think the other $5,000 went that he was given for that meeting? I’ll give you a hint. It rhymes with Pollin Hexton.
Maybe you haven't been keeping up well. Understandable the way this case is moving, but if the FBI had evidence that the money had gone to Sexton or his family Baker would have spent his morning in Federal custody with Chuck Person.
The fact that they didn't arrest him shows that they don't have that evidence yet. It may well come out later, but right now you can be sure they don't. That's literally the ONLY difference between Baker and Person's situations.
This isn't an attempt to trivialize what Baker did. He's scum and it could still end up biting Bama/Sexton but you're claiming something that even the FBI can't prove right now.

It says he is alleged to have accepted $15,000 in total. The $10,000 is just what he allegedly received at that meeting. The remainder could have been paid to him before or after the meeting just as easily as it could have been funneled to the Sextons. It's anyone's guess at this point.

Again, he is not in an public office position. That has to do with elected Govt Offices.
Think of it this way. Coaches, they use their position for personal gain all he time with endorsement deals and that is legal.
Code of Ala. § 36-25-1
Public official. Any person elected to public office, whether or not that person has taken office, by the vote of the people at state, county, or municipal level of government or their instrumentalities, including governmental corporations, and any person appointed to a position at the state, county, or municipal level of government or their instrumentalities, including governmental corporations. For purposes of this chapter, a public official includes the chairs and vice-chairs or the equivalent offices of each state political party as defined in Section 17-16-2.

I appreciate your wanting, but the other $5000 was paid in a May meeting. The OP posted the actual report since you are having a hard time understanding NBC's summary. The OP did use Auburn math on the total amount paid, however. Baker allegedly got $15k: $5k in May and $10k in August. I assume that he double counted the $10k because it is mentioned twice.

Dude, you couldn't be more wrong. As a public employee he is 100% subject to the state's ethics laws. Overall, at least as many if not more employees are prosecuted for ethics violations than elected officials each year. Here are a few examples.
Employees of the General Contractors Licensing Board arrested for taking bribes.
State Education Department employee arrested for Ethics law violations.
I can literally go on all day with links, but you should have the idea now.

LSU basketball or football does not have an associate AD title for that specific sport

Eta: It appears the primary difference may be that they didn't have a wire tap on his phone and apparently don't have evidence of him actually pressuring or persuading Sexton or his dad to use CW1 services.

That's all they've released as part of the Probable Cause affadavit. I'd imagine they have corroboration that will come out at trial.
The point you're leaning towards is, however, correct. More could easily come out later that implicates the Sextons. That's why all my posts have emphasized the AS OF NOW portion.
He's a POS scumbag so there's no telling what he actually did but if the had evidence, he would have been arrested.
It's a skinny-assed rotten limb we're hanging onto, but it is the only thing keeping us out of the abyss so if you don't mind I'm just going to hang here until it breaks.

The talking heads on radio are suggesting the NCAA asked for help from the FBI.

I think the NCAA was in the dark.

I'm not a lawyer and I don't see much federal stuff, but the way I understand it that's a key component to some of the charges. The actor has to put the federal funds recipient at risk. Him just taking money to steer a kid puts him personally at risk, but not the institution. When he passed along the bribe money to the kids, it put Auburn at risk of financial loss through NCAA and SEC fines and penalties - thus checking off the second box.
As far as the proving it goes, they may well think our guy passed on money too but can't prove it - thus no charges for him yet.
