Breaking: Major NCAA Violations by MIZZOU

[Harry0569]

Major NCAA violations announced by Missouri, and the Tigers' entire 2013-14 season -- when Frank Haith was the coach -- will be vacated.

[Harry0569]

Two biggest Mizzou violations: one donor provided impermissible benefits to three student-athletes, another donor provided benefits to 11.

Wins vacated and probably nothing else. Sounds about the right level of penalties for paying for players in a P5 program.

So Missouri is banning itself from postseason play this year. That had to be a tough decision.

[LA_Mustang]

Just like Syracuse last year.

When did these occur? If under new rules would probably be an example of bias as they will get a slap on the wrist.

An 8-8 team that lost to a 7 loss Arky team by 30+...so tough for them to self impose a post season ban. Please...give me a break. F the NCAA

Since Missouri self imposed the ban and not the NCAA I would not see why anyone would be upset at the NCAA.

Sounds like they were doing the old cutting on the automatic sprinkler system job.

Because they will accept it as their official ban and not impose another one, which would be the fair thing to do.

Right the NCAA doesn't have to accept the self imposed sanctions.

Missouri officials announced on Wednesday that a 19-month investigation into its men's basketball program has uncovered multiple rules violations, including donors providing impermissible benefits to players and at least one prospect.

The violations occurred under former coach Frank Haith, who is now the coach at Tulsa.

Neither current coach Kim Anderson nor anybody on his staff were involved.

Missouri has vacated all wins from the 2013-14 season and will lose one of its men's basketball scholarship in 2015-16 and another no later than the 2017-18 season. Beyond that, the Tigers are banned from this postseason, meaning they will not compete in the SEC Tournament or any other postseason competition sanctioned by the NCAA.

One donor, who committed Level I violations, has been permanently disassociated.

Another donor, who committed Level II violations, has been disassociated for two years.

"We will win at Mizzou and do so with integrity and class," said Missouri AD Mack Rhoades. "I am satisfied the University fully cooperated with the NCAA and will continue to do so. We must do better and we will. Our working relationship with the current men's basketball staff is strong, and I am confident in their commitment to upholding our standards."

This is the second time a program run by Haith has encountered NCAA issues.

The 2012 AP National Coach of the Year served a five-game ban to open the 2013-14 season while at Missouri because of violations that happened on his watch at Miami, where he coached from 2004 to 2011. CBS Sports' attempt to reach Haith for comment Wednesday afternoon was not immediately succesful.

"We are obviously very disappointed that the actions of a few individuals have put our program in this situation," Anderson said. "However, I am appreciative to Mack Rhoades and our staff for their guidance and support throughout this process. I hurt for our kids more than anything and for our only senior, Ryan Rosburg, in particular. But I am confident we will overcome this and be stronger as a team and as a staff because of it. We are committed to representing this great university and state with honor and integrity."

That's huge for an 8-8 team that is 10th in their conference to remove themselves from the postseason.
