16 for football, 6 for basketball.

How in the hell are any of these not as bad or worse than giving someone a suit to wear to an award ceremony?

PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT – REPORTED ON OCT. 31, 2018
A football player received “one night of lodging,” along with something else that Ohio State redacted from the public record, from a “friend.” However, per the records, “the relationship did not meet the preexisting relationship test,” deeming the player received preferential treatment.

As a self-imposed punishment, Ohio State will develop a plan to track potential issues with preferential treatment and extra benefits, especially during bye weeks and vacation periods.

STUDENT-ATHLETE REINSTATEMENT – REPORTED ON AUG. 29, 2018
The football recruiting staff took prospects and prospects' families somewhere that had a “food/entertainment combo package.” The staff members did not reduce the amount of “host money” given to prospects and their families to account for the food and entertainment package. Therefore, the prospects received more money than allotted, constituting a Level III NCAA violation.

As part of the self-punishment, eight prospects paid the “value of the benefit” to a charity of their choice.

In the second one, it was directly monetary related. 8 prospects paid the "value of their benefit" to charity of choice? WTF.

It is a strategic reporting. UGAg did it too. It is the "see how well we police ourselves? No need to come down here. We got everything"
