In fact, she's the opposite: a convicted criminal that had a vendetta against the university after she was fired. She even tried to extort the university before going to the NCAA. As Jon Sundvold eloquently stated:
"When an individual acts independently of their employer, violates rules, commits extortion, and shops her accusations to the highest bidder."
And she was the sole witness (and alleged actor) in this case. She had no hard evidence to corroborate the claims she made about herself. And even if she had assisted players in academically dishonest ways, it's highly unlikely any of those players would have "cooperated" and admitted to their wrongdoing, as they would have nothing to gain and a lot to lose. Remember, the NCAA has no subpoena power, and thus no way to compel a witness to testify.
This would have been an extremely easy case to fight and win — if MU had simply denied it like all the other P5 schools do.
