It's is obvious how to evade the NCAA nowadays. Leave no paper trail and do anything incriminating face to face with the party you are doing business. Deny whatever wrongdoing whatsoever if someone comes snooping. Sue the NCAA once you hear what the gist/details will be handed down. Big schools and their teams of lawyers skew anything necessary in the timeline mentioned to put reasonable doubt towards the incriminating individuals. Not to mention, the NCAA loses money when their babies are on probation.
Want a top flight kid that may have accepted gifts or said coach is going to supply him some? Hire a team to sanitize all social media and the player's image overall.
In other words, IU self reporting made it loud and clear to the blue bloods to NEVER go that route unless they want gutted (yes I know we sanctioned ourselves, but if we hadn't would the NCAA be more lenient or strict?) Best way to cheat and stay clear is destroy any documents pertaining to the violation at hand and lie your teeth off.
I do not condone this, it is just reality.
