Burrow admits breaking NCAA rule for money during SDSU senior year
Atlanta receiver Ken Burrow said pressure and money needs led him to sign a contract with a management firm during his senior year at San Diego State. He received 400 dollars total and repaid it after joining the Falcons. SDSU and the Pacific Coast Athletic Conference will decide on possible forfeit of 1970 season wins. NCAA official notes no forfeitures stem from that year since SDSU did not go to a bowl.

San Diego State, schools face suit over signing amid NCAA review
The case concerns whether San Diego State and involved schools knew of the signing with Burrow. The NCAA might intervene later to verify no direct involvement. Burrow posted 54 receptions for 904 yards and 12 touchdowns in 1970 at San Diego.
