How can an organization tell you how to spend your money? This is America, not China.
Ed friggen' Zachary! Those weren't students he paid money to, they were full grown adults, coaches and staff, that should have to bare no scrutiny from the NCAA. They aren't students, they aren't enrolled in school and they aren't even recruits for crying out loud. The NCAA should have absolutely no say in this unless that money was transferred to students or some such nonsense as that. The NCAA didn't pay Richt that money, his employer did. He should be able to do with that money as he pleases. Just one more reason the NCAA doesn't garner any respect.
