Trust me, we've passed plenty of this stuff on. UM is well-aware of what its competitors are doing and they've advised the NCAA of same.
The problem is: (1) it's hard to prove; and (2) the NCAA is in bed with the SEC. Everyone in the business knows the biggest crooks are at LSU, and that's where Emmert made his name.
If any journalist approached this from the "Let's expose this and use the information to force reform in the NCAA and allow these kids to get paid" perspective they could make some headway. All you need is some runners down here to flip and name names. LSU has local runners that will deliver to a kids front door. Common tactic for them is to get off the phone with a kid, and then have a runner show up at the kids door 30 min later with something they talked about, like gift cards etc.
