“Supplements”. Re payments (college football) they’ve gone over the top now. A kid I

know was playing WR at Boise state - quite a big college. He was suspended for half a season in his junior year for borrowing a 20 year old car for a day from his host family. And then in his senior year was suspended for another half a season because his host family used their credit card to buy him a ticket to Amsterdam for the summer (because typically the airline only took US cards and his was Dutch) which he paid back, with proof, the same day.

Those suspensions possibly cost him the chance of being drafted to the NFL. In the end he was picked up after the draft by Atlanta falcons as an undrafted free agent which has no signing bonus, then got waived after injuring his hamstring in the third preseason game. Was featured on Hard Knocks that year. Ended up playing a year or two in the Canadian league and is now out of football.
