The worst Texas ever did was have some football players sell tickets, a coach (David McWilliams) giving a player money to go home for a funeral, and giving Marcus Dupree a pair of cowboy boots.

A. Significant violations of NCAA legislation.

1. During the period December 1984 to March 1985, while recruiting a prospective student - athlete, a former assistant football coach made statements that reasonably could have led the young man to believe that he would receive benefits not available to other students if he enrolled at the institution. Also, several days after the young man's official paid visit to the university's campus, the coach gave the young man an orange mesh jersey with the prospect's last name and the number "8" on the back. [NCAA Bylaws 1 - 1 - (b) and 1 - 1 - (b) - (1" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer">

(WOW! Stop the presses!)

2. On at least two occasions during the 1980 - 81 academic year, prior to the enrollment of a prospective student - athlete, a representative of the university's athletics interests entertained the young man, members of his family and a high school coach; further, during the young man's enrollment (198 1 - 1985), the representative provided automobile transportation, entertainment and cash to the young man and members of his family. Specifically, after the young man signed a letter of intent with the university and prior to the prospect's enrollment, th e representative entertained the young man and members of his family for a steak dinner; further, approximately one month later, the representative entertained the prospect, his brother and one of the young men's assistant high school football coaches for a meal at a restaurant. Subsequent to the young man's enrollment, the representative: (a) transported the young man and members of his family to restaurants where he entertained them for meals on numerous occasions on a regular basis during the institution's vacation periods; (b) entertained the young man's brother prior to a home football game in 1982 and also provided him a ticket to this game; (c) entertained members of the young man's family for a meal at a restaurant in the Austin area following home football games on approximately two or three occasions each year during the young man's enrollment; (d) gave a total of approximately $40 to $50 cash to the young man and his brother, and permitted the young men to purchase a steak dinner on those occasions during the prospect's freshman and sophomore years following "night football contests" in Austin, and (e) mailed a $50 check on several occasions t o the father of the young man in order to purchase Christmas and birthday gifts for his sons.

(LOL. 40-50 bucks!)

3. In January 1984, the former recruiting coordinator and present assistant director of athletics obtained a $2,600 loan from a bank in Austin and purchased a cashier's check in this amount for the cost of repairing the automobile of a student - athlete; further, the damage to the automobile was caused by two student - athletes who, several days after the repair bill was paid, each obtained a $1,300 loan and paid the recruiting coordinator's $2,600 loan balance. When this transaction was discovered by university officials, it was not reported to the NCAA because the institution concluded wrong ly that it did not constitute a violation.

(They repaid the loan. LOL)

4. By his ignorance of some NCAA rules and by ignoring others, an assistant football coach was involved in several violations. Specifically, he: (a) provided small amounts of cash (up to $20) to a student - athlete over the course of the young man's enrollment (1983 - 1986), cash that was later repaid upon request; (b) loaned a student - athlete $200 to pay bail bond, a loan that was repaid; (c) failed to convey the proper rules interpre tations to a representative of the university's athletics interests, which caused the representative (who was prepared to abide by the rules) to contact a prospective student - athlete in person and to assist the prospect in obtaining employment with his fir m prior to the young man's graduation from high school and before the young man signed his letter of intent, and (d) signed the young man to a National Letter of Intent during an improper recruiting contact at the young man's high school.

(LOL again. Minor chickenshit stuff)

5. During the period January 1982 to December 1984, a former assistant football coach (the present head football coach), two former assistant football coaches and a former recruiting coordinator (present assistant director of athletics) arranged for or provided several student - athletes with various amounts of cash for the young men's personal use. Further, on several of these occasions, the student - athletes repaid the money.
