Never once was anything proven by the NCAA. Not once. They sent undercover agents onto UNLV's campus and even asked students if those players were in class. They walked away with nothing. Tark sued the NCAA and walked away with a multi-million dollar settlement a few years after he was forced out by the UNLV President, who was the immediately removed by UNLV.
Things you probably didn't know... The next batch of players UNLV had coming in (before Tark was removed) included Jalen Rose, Shawn Kemp, and Jason Kidd.
