When Oregon's All-American cornerback Cliff Harris was cited for driving 118 mph on Sunday night, most of the chatter was in regards to the triple digit speed. But a report by a local television station has drawn attention to possible NCAA violations that may have led to the incident.

The car Harris was driving at the time of the when he was clocked was rented by a university employee, KEZI in Eugene reported Monday. Police said that Harris was pulled over with two other unnamed Oregon football players and one other friend in a car that was rented from Hertz. KEZI learned from Hertz the name of the woman who rented the car. The woman's identity was not revealed, though she insists she can prove no wrongdoing

NCAA rule 16.12.2.3c states:
An institutional employee or representative of the institution's athletics interests may not provide a student-athlete with extra benefits or services, including, but not limited to: The use of an automobile.

Yeah - looks fishy. But I think the NCAA needs to prove that she wouldn't have let any non-student-athlete borrow the car. She supposedly has proof that he paid for his share of borrowing the car. My guess is that the NCAA will do nothing with this.

who rents a car and then gives it to someone else to drive. Don't you sign for the car basically stating that you are the only one driving it.


Seems like a dumb thing for a university employee to do even if it is legit. What kind of car was it?
