There are a lot of people on those planes, lots of boosters and university staff, and I doubt the coach is the one checking who is on it aside from checking that he's got his players.

Ok, so maybe Cal didn't know but someone from the program/university had to know and the fact that they are associated with the excess benefits makes the penalty of vacating games a reasonable one IMO.
