That review has led to junior running back Jordan Hall, sophomore defensive back Corey Brown, and junior defensive back Travis Howard disclosing that they had received impermissible benefits of $300 or less each in total at a charity event they attended earlier in the year.

I mean - how could they know that was wrong. :smash:

Maybe they're related to Janoris Jenkins. Same kind of decision making process.

I'm hearing that it was a Breast Cancer Awareness charity event where everyone received gift bags. The gift bag included a T-Shirt, mouse pad, and various small things/trinkets. Supposedly the sum of the items included does not come close to $300 but that is the price they put on receiving the free stuff at the event?

AP is trying to make it sound like they are all connected to the rest of the investigation

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- Three more football players are in hot water at Ohio State.
The school reported late Thursday afternoon that running back Jordan Hall, defensive back Corey Brown and defensive back Travis Howard each received impermissible benefits of $300 or less earlier this year - after several players were suspended for accepting cash and free tattoos from the subject of a federal drug-trafficking probe.
Ohio State is awaiting final word on what sanctions it will receive from the NCAA for violations which occurred in 2010 that led to coach Jim Tressel's forced resignation in May. Several players have already been suspended and the 2010 season was vacated because of the earlier problems.
The latest admission could affect Ohio State's previous case before the NCAA, which was heard on Aug. 12.

Fairly certain that is not an "impermissible benefit".
