3.3. A student-athlete will be in breach of protocol and treated as if there was a positive test for a banned substance other than a street/illicit drug as defined in Bylaw 31.2.3 if the student-athlete: • refuses to sign the notification form or custody and control form; • fails to arrive at the collection station without justification as determined by Drug Free Sport; • fails to provide a urine specimen according to protocol; • leaves the collection station without authorization from the certified collector before providing a specimen according to protocol; or • attempts to alter the integrity of the collection process. The certified collector will inform the student-athlete of these implications (in the presence of a witness) and record such. If the student-athlete is not available, the certified collector will notify the NCAA official responsible for administration of the event or an institutional representative.

3.4. Tampering. A student-athlete who is involved in a case of clearly observed tampering with an NCAA drug-test sample, as documented per NCAA drug-testing protocol by a drug-testing crew member, shall be charged with the loss of a minimum of two seasons of competition in all sports and shall remain ineligible for all regular-season and postseason competition during the time period ending two calendar years (730 days) from the date of the tampering.

quote:
6.5. The student-athlete and collector (and witness, if present) will sign certifying that the procedures were followed as described in the protocol. Any deviation from the procedures must be described and recorded at that time. If deviations are alleged, the student-athlete will be required to provide another specimen.
6.6. After the collection has been completed, the specimens will be forwarded to the laboratory.
6.7. All specimens are the property of the NCAA.
6.8. In cases of suspected manipulation, a student-athlete’s sample may be tested for all banned substances.

quote:
6.2.1. The student-athlete will select a sealed beaker from a supply of such and attach a unique bar code to the beaker. 6.2.2. A collector will require the student-athlete to rinse and dry his or her hands. 6.2.3. A collector will monitor the furnishing of the specimen by observation in order to ensure the integrity of the specimen. 6.2.4. The student-athlete will be responsible for keeping the collection beaker closed and controlled.

There is very little wiggle room in there, apart from interpreting the tampering bylaw as meaning that he would have had to watch KF use fake urine, then submit the fake urine sample to which he then informed him that he knew it was fake.

Beginning to fill with fake urine, then emptying it out - (first he should have stopped him then and said sorry but I have to have that fake urine submitted as one sample and then had kf go get another cup and submit both samples. The first sample would have been the "tampered with" sample.) then filling it with his real, untampered with urine could fit more closely with bylaw 3.3 which is that he did not maintain the integrity of his sample. Hard to argue that the final submission was actually tampepered with if the collector admits that it was 100% KF's urine and met gravity requirements upon submission. That would still be 3.3 in that KF did not maintain control of the sample through the entire testing process, but the final submission could arguably be considered non tampered with or interpreted as any of the other "diluted etc etc"

Just me being hopeful - I know Miami is coming up and that without KF we still have a very good, underestimated team.
