Two former employees of GS have broken the NCAA conduct rules. These former staff members provided three football players with unacceptable academic assistance.
One of the former assistant compliance directors provided a flash drive of their previous work to a football player enrolled in a class the assistant director had previously taught. The athlete used one of the assignments as his own work. When the director discovered what the athlete had done, she and the athlete came up with a plan to make the student-athlete responsible for the plagiarism. During this process, the athlete told investigators that the former staff member gave him the flash drive and told him to tell a false story.
