The NCAA says it has found major infractions involving all 14 sports at IUPUI.

The NCAA said Tuesday that IUPUI allowed erroneous eligibility certification for 97 student-athletes from 2003-04 through 2006-07, demonstrating a lack of institutional control and a failure to monitor by the university.

Violations involving athletes include not enrolling in a degree-seeking program, not meeting progress toward degree requirements, insufficient minimum enrollment standards and competing after graduating by re-enrolling in the same baccalaureate program. The violations resulted in some of the student-athletes practicing, competing, and receiving athletic scholarships or travel expenses while not eligible to do so.

I was wondering when the ncaa would land on these blatant transgressors...

At this rate, the NCAA may award USC extra schollies for cooperating somewhat in the ongoing investigation.

What a joke the NCAA has become in terms of "enforcement".

the NCAA is probably so upset with USC...that several mid-majors will have to pay a heavy price

At a minimum they should force them (IUPUI) to come up with a proper name for the university!

my prediction is that Butler will be banned from postseason play for 2 years.
