I agree. That article in the Advocate is a walking contradiction. First, they say sanctions were levied based on recruiting violations with an unknown player. Next, they detail Womack's story of signing the FAA and the fact that he was not a firm LSU commit. Later on, they state that it is unclear if any other athletes beside Womack and LSU's 4 early enrollees signed FAAs. How can it be unclear if you state that they got in trouble over an unknown player who signed an FAA?
All of the information currently out there on this is from this article which says it is from public records. It only states that LSU declined to comment. Why didn't they provide excerpts from LSU's self reporting document or the notice of sanctions from the SEC office? For a rule that could have serious ramifications, no other media outlet has picked it up to my knowldege.
