lets see if our friend advises on what he preaches...from the Claude Bassett case in an OTL transcript.....
Farrey - Bassett left a long paper trail. It's precisely the kind of evidence the NCAA needs to make a big case, a rarity in recent years.
In the four years leading up to the Kentucky case, the NCAA found what it considered major violations in just six Division A football programs, the lowest total for any four year period in its history.
Smrt - The enforcement staff is as good as the information it gets. The more direct information you get, the better off you are.
Farrey - Former NCAA investigator Chuck Smrt says cheaters have gotten more sophisticated over the years.
Smrt - ATM is a great potential way for a violation, because you never have to interact with the athlete. Money is put into an account, the athlete has an ATM card, and the athlete never sees the person. It has a limit, can't go back all the time, because there's only $300 or $400 or $800 or $1,000, whatever, going in each month. So, it eliminates some of the interaction.
That's an example of the information. If we don't -- if the athlete doesn't tell us, we're never going to get that.
There was this myth that somehow we had -- we were the Gestapo or the Starr Chamber, and I think we're more of a paper tiger.
