This may just be the tip of the iceberg. This guy was dealing with a lot more teams than just Oregon. Word is he's the reason Ahmad Dixon ended up at Baylor.

This must've been what Cowherd was talking about when he said a top 12-15 program going down.

Oregon’s financial ties to recruiting services questioned | CollegeFootballTalk

"Oregon might not be alone in this Lyles boat, however. According to ESPN.com, Lyles has ties to players who eventually signed with schools such as Auburn, Baylor, LSU, Oklahoma State, USC and Texas A&M. Of those schools mentioned, Auburn may have the most reason for concern."

Lache wouldn't be the first Temple running back to pay for play Suspended TCU Star Sues the NFL - Los Angeles Times but I would be surprised if it went down that way. One would think that Phil Knight would have enough snap to be more creative in paying his players besides using a university check.

I don't see the problem unless those schools also paid him.

Dixon never met a school he wouldn't commit to...Texas, Baylor, Tennessee, Baylor. If Dixon went to Baylor on a pay for play scheme Mack Brown would have had the NCAA all over that years ago. The Mighty Mack Brown losing a recruit to little old Baylor would crush his ego.

Agreed; but does it go further than 1 program is the question.
