So much so that they told reporters and showed video of him doing it?



Yes. But they told him they wouldn't cooperate with the NCAA. It's a foolproof plan.

This is a very interesting case. As I mentioned earlier, if the guys the brokers don't talk to the NCAA. Nothing will come of this. Yes I agree there will be a sideshow like the Cam case throughout the year. But the NCAA has no way of proving anything happened. Basically sort of like Cam. They are saying we did something wrong to the NCAA, but there isn't anything you can do about it. Brilliant if you ask me.

If they suspend Manziel, they not only lose the O'Bannon case, but then open themselves to lawsuits.

Jay Bilas basically won the case against them for Ed O'Bannon's lawyers when he obliterated the NCAA over their store, in which they were still selling jerseys by player names.
