And the plot keeps thickening. Now it is going back to his freshman year.

But whoever redacted the records missed a spot, and left a crucial bit of evidence in the deposition of former UT athletic director Doug Dickey. Naughright’s lawyers asked Dickey, after establishing that Naughright was a guest lecturer in a course Manning took as a freshman, if he was aware that she accused him of “academic fraud” in 1994.

 Unfortunately there are 3 pages that are confidential and can not be made public without manning or the accuser signing it. Which most likely won't happen due to the non disclosure agreement. The class in question was a pass/fail freshman course

Tegano—an adjunct professor and athletic department figure who had a dining hall on campus named for him after Manning donated $3 million to the university in his name—told the Post that the the class in question was a one-hour pass/fail class, and the grade was entirely attendance-based

From one of the comments. Academic fraud in this case could be "Many possibilities: Manning skips the class and has a friend sign him in (some professors pass around sign-in sheets, which is of course ridiculous), or he signed somebody else’s name, or he just skipped class altogether and tried to alter the professor’s grade-book."
