CORAL GABLES, FLA. (AP)
Miami's football team will lose a total of nine scholarships and the men's basketball team will lose three, as part of the penalties the school was handed Tuesday by the NCAA as the Nevin Shapiro scandal presumably drew to a close.

Both of those scholarship losses will be stretched out over three years. But for the first time since 2010, the football team will be permitted to appear in a postseason game.

The school will also serve three years of probation. Former men's basketball coach Frank Haith, now at Missouri, will sit out the first five games of his team's upcoming season, and three former Miami assistant coaches were handed two-year show-cause bans.

If that had been us, we'd be BOHICA'd like nobody's business.

That is one of the worst college scandals ever, and that's all that was handed to them? If there was any doubt before what a joke the NCAA is, it was removed today.  :facepalm:

This is in addition to the self-imposed penalties that Miami placed on itself the last couple of years.

...

It wound up taking more than 18 weeks, but in the end, was what the school wanted. Miami self-imposed postseason bans in 2011 and 2012, missing two bowl games and last season's Atlantic Coast Conference title game -- along with more than 30 practices and some reductions in recruiting."...

Interesting article on the situation. Alabama did pretty much the same thing.

1. Be active and upfront about self-reporting violations

In November 2009, Miami notified NCAA officials in Indianapolis that it might have a potential problem.

Then in March of the following year, according to the NCAA’s public findings, Miami self-reported that 32 coaches across multiple sports and two staff members violated rules regarding text messages and telephone contacts to prospects from August 2007 to December 2008.

The 'Canes followed that up with more information in May and then joined together with NCAA enforcement staff to conduct interviews and gather further information

They have already sat out two post season bowl bans. Last year it cost them a spot in the ACC Championship Game and a bowl game. They have a lot of recruiting restrictions which are already in place and 9 scholarships for football.

The way the NCAA messed this case up they had to accept Miami's self imposed sanctions IMO. The NCAA is not what it used to be.

what baffles me about this case is that Shapiro's "millions" shrunk to 173k
with half of that going to just two players ? 

talk about a bungle ...  :dunno:
how could it be that far off ?

Shapiro alleged that he spent millions between 2002 and 2010 on football and men's basketball recruits, athletes and coaches. A study of the allegations by The Associated Press found the NCAA was able to identify about $173,330 in extra benefits -- more than half of that, investigators said, going to former Hurricane players Vince Wilfork and Antrel Rolle.

Yep. As much as I think this is a slap on the wrist comparatively, we can all thank the NCAA for screwing up the investigation and therefore Miami not getting the sanctions they truly deserved. I can hear Pat Haden screaming all the way from LA right now.
