almost seems that Miami would have given themselves more self-imposed penalties than the NCAA handed down.
repay the money we can prove and you're good to go?

There are two committees in play here. The infractions committee and the eligibility committee. The infractions committee is investigating the school for sanctions surrounding Shapiro. The eligibility committee is totally separate and rules on player eligibility. Like Cam Newton, the school declared the players ineligible. The players then go to the NCAA to get reinstated. The school says why it declared them ineligible and the committee makes a determination.
This has nothing to do with the infractions committee. I don't know if the two committees even share information. By going down this road, the infractions committee cannot impose additional penalties on these players or the school for this season (unless the "U" committs more violations). Also if the school presents the case early enough, before all evidence is compiled, then the penalties are generally light. The eligibility committee always errs on the side of the athlete. That is why the hearing always happens almost immediately compared to the infractions committee (UNC's hearing isn't until Oct.). With the bankruptcy court now involved the infractions committee might not address this case for years. Everyone involved will be long gone.
