How are having SB practices in FL legal within the current rules?

If the answer is already in the SEC hate thread I appolgize. I skimmed it and didnt see anything. I agree Sankey is whining and not truely representing his position. 

I assume since it was announced by the school that it has been vetted by both the B1G and NCAA and given the go ahead. But this rule:

16.8.2.2 Conditioning Expenses Outside the Playing Season. [A] An

institution shall not provide expenses
 

(e.g., travel, lodging, meals) to student-athletes in conjunction with

permissible conditioning activities
 

that may occur outside the playing season during the academic year.

(Adopted: 10/20/14)

seems to make this camp illegal. Or are the students paying their own way? 

Are they only going to be on the IMG campus, or will they have a few days off to go find a beach? Who would pay for that?

Thanks for anyone that has answers.
