I never said that. The same is true of middle and smaller programs as well, and at high schools. Football players in general get away with garbage that the average student does not; and the better the player, the more they can get away with.
But to say that the top programs do not care, or that they have less concern about "shady stuff" than lesser programs, is simply not true. Some particular programs at the top have let it slide far more than others, like Florida during the Urban Meyer years. Jameis Winston was the kind of player you just can't replace, so he no doubt got a lot of leeway. But none of that is specific to the elite programs. If FSU would have booted Jameis Winston, you know plenty of lower-level P5 teams and G5 teams would have offered him a scholarship in a heartbeat. I mean, we're the team that has Isheem Young on its roster, when he is clearly a top P5-level athlete.
