DrB, the author of your linked article, is full of cow patties. The truth is your violations started in 1976 but Minor and Cofer didn't sign until 1981. So all of you orange clad Pickens rock lovers want us to believe that as 7th graders, Clemson Agricultural was paying these 2 kids, buying them cars, getting their relatives jobs, etc.? Really? We're not that stupid unlike the Pickens orange kool-aid drinkers.
Here's a few links for you. 1st is a direct lick to the NCAA Legislative services database where you can see the report for yourself and even download it. Imagine that. The second is an article by the New York Times that explains briefly the Minor and Cofer situation. Oh, The New York Times is much more credible the shakintheteets or DrB.
And finally a brief excerpt from the NCAA website.
