Ten minutes remained in Thursday's session of former USC assistant football coach Todd McNair's defamation trial against the NCAA when Bruce Broillet glanced at the clock on the wall of the fifth-floor room in the Stanley Mosk Courthouse.
The 5-foot-2 Broillet pointed at a big screen television with a pen as the witness, Missouri law professor Rodney Uphoff, who served as a nonvoting member of the committee, watched.
Before finding McNair guilty of unethical conduct: a one-year postseason ban and the loss of six scholarships for the football program. After the finding: a two-year postseason ban and the loss of 30 scholarships.
