OT: Syracuse Sanctions

NCAA's Statement

Over the course of a decade, Syracuse University did not control and monitor its athletics programs, and its head men's basketball coach failed to monitor his program, according to a decision issued by a Division I Committee on Infractions panel.

-Five years of probation from March 6, 2015 through March 5, 2020.
-Vacation of all wins in which ineligible men's basketball students played in 2004-05, 2005-06, 2006-07, 2010-11 and 2011-12 and ineligible football students played in 2004-05, 2005-06 and 2006-07. The public decision contains additional details.
-Fine of $500 per contest played by ineligible students.
-The school must return to the NCAA all funds it has received to date through the former Big East Conference revenue sharing for its appearances in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament.
-Suspension of the head basketball coach from the first nine conference games of 2015-16.
-Reduction of men's basketball scholarships by three for the 2015-16, 2016-17, 2017-18 and 2018-19 academic years. If the school has already executed scholarship offers for the 2015-16 year, the school may begin the four-year penalty with the 2016-17 year.
-Reduction in the number of permissible off-campus recruiters from four to two during June 1, 2015 through May 31, 2017.
-The panel also accepted the school's self-imposed postseason ban for the 2014-15 season, but noted that self-imposition of penalties after the conclusion of infractions hearings does not influence the outcome.
-Additional self-imposed penalties can be found in the public decision.

Wow.
