There are definitely specific people who posted about being called for conferring at specific games in College Bowl for doing things like raising the buzzer, turning their heads towards their teammates, etc. I guess you can be skeptical about whether they are truthfully and accurately recalling the incidents if you want, but this is not "apocryphal" and can be cited to the posts on old fora discussing it if desired.

There are definitely specific people who posted about being called for conferring at specific games in College Bowl for doing things like raising the buzzer, turning their heads towards their teammates, etc. I guess you can be skeptical about whether they are truthfully and accurately recalling the incidents if you want, but this is not "apocryphal" and can be cited to the posts on old fora discussing it if desired.
