Our old friend Jim McElwain perhaps was a bit disingenuous about who worked for the school and was "directly involved in the game."
-Bill Kanine, Chuck McGuirk, Kory Mindel, Sean McBride, Mark Bolle, and Tom Murphy were each listed as an "Equipment Assistant" on the official NCAA 1-2-4 (b) form that was signed by Jim McElwain.
However, Bill Kanine, Chuck McGuirk, Kory Mindel, Sean McBride, and Mark Bolle are all older, prominent donors and/or board members at Central Michigan. I doubt any of them were carrying footballs and pads. In that environment, it is certainly possible that one more non-team guy could slip in.
Conor Stalions had a pass that read "VB," which was different than a general sideline pass. A VB, visting bench, pass gave access to the team area between the 20 yard-lines where only the team and staff get to be. There were only 50 VB passes.
#50 was Tom Murphy, another "Equipment Assistant." I have not yet found a Tom Murphy who is a prominent board member/donor at Central Michigan. I wonder if that was Stalions name that day.
