Between approximately May 16 and 30, 2013, representative 1 (Tuley) employed two then men's basketball student-athletes (Jordan Clarkson and Tony Criswell, as well as team manager Ricky Bolton) as interns through his company and paid them each approximately $1,100 for work not performed. Representative 1 also provided student-athletes 2 and 3
with $25 each in cash as well as housing, use of
representative 1's personal vehicle, access to a local gym and at least two meals, all at no cost. The total
value of the impermissible benefits provided to student-athletes 2 and 3, including impermissible compensation, was approximately $5,444. Bolton's compensation and benefits are not included in this total, although he was the one permitted to drive the vehicle.
Between May 20 and 31, 2014, representative 1 (Tuley) employed another then men's basketball student-athlete (Cam Biedscheid, as well as student manager Patrick Holman) as an intern through his company and paid him approximately $1,000 for work not performed. Representative 1 also provided student-athlete 4 with housing, use of representative 1's personal vehicle, an iPad, access to a local gym and at least three meals, all at no cost. The total value of the impermissible benefits provided to student-athlete 4, including the impermissible compensation, was approximately $2,558. Holman's compensation and benefits are not included in this total.
Between May 25 and 31, 2014, representative 1 (Tuley) employed student-athlete 1 (Jakeenan Gant) as an intern through his company and paid him approximately $1,000 for work not performed. Representative 1 also provided student-athlete 1 with approximately $520 in cash as well as housing, use of representative 1's personal vehicle, an iPad, access to a local gym and at least three meals, all at no cost. The total value of the impermissible benefits provided to student-athlete 1, including the impermissible compensation, was approximately $2,434.

Clayton’s email to Anderson describes that Holman “was provided a vehicle to use during his employment at T3, but Mark indicated that none of the student-athletes have been provided transportation to eliminate any scrutiny of doing so.”
It does not appear, given the prior awareness of MU staffers, that the housing and use of a vehicle would have been considered impermissible benefits by themselves. But it seems they became viewed that way after the NCAA and school in their review determined that the players had been compensated “for work-not-performed at a business through a summer internship program,” as stated in Missouri’s release.

Holman was the student manager that also participated in the internship.
What you are detailing are impermissible benefits, not compensation. They weren't considered as such until MU decided they needed to find fault with the internships and were outlined up front as part of the internship.
They weren't 'paid' differently for participating in the internships.

Each player and manager was provided with housing at no cost during the internship as well as local transportation and an iPad. Tuley said he provided those same things to all out-of-state interns.
Those are three things specified as “impermissible inducements and extra benefits” he is said to have provided the players through the internship program, in violation of NCAA rules.
The list of violations also states that the players received cash in the amount of $520 and that Tuley arranged for the use of a local gym. Tuley said the cash was provided for gas and food because Clarkson, Criswell and Bolton arrived with no money. He doesn’t deny arranging for the use of the gym for players to work out but said he paid nothing for that privilege.
Missouri was aware that housing and transportation were provided, according to an email Tuley sent to Brunette on May 14, 2013, and forwarded to the Tribune.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
