Message: [QUOTE="Scrutineer, post: 4760183, member: 8240"] Here's the ruling. In a shocking (to no one) about face by the NCAA, the most egregious violations (Self's FIVE Level I violations) were all downgraded. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/ncaabk/bill-self-kansas-avoid-serious-penalties-in-ncaa-infractions-case/ar-AA1i3AKh[/URL] "The long-awaited [URL='https://www.si.com/college/college-basketball/team/kansas-jayhawks']Kansas[/URL] men’s basketball infractions case ruling is in, and the Jayhawks are walking away unscathed. In a decision announced Wednesday, the NCAA’s Independent Accountability Review Process (IARP) led to a downgrade in the severity of the [URL='https://www.si.com/college/2019/09/23/kansas-ncaa-violations-bill-self-recruiting-adidas']five Level I allegations against the program[/URL], ultimately judging this a Level II case. The Independent Resolution Panel gave Kansas a three-year probation, with no effect on the program’s postseason status. Head coach [URL='https://www.si.com/college/2021/04/02/bill-self-lifetime-contract-kansas-ncaa-investigation']Bill Self[/URL], who was initially charged with a Level I violation and was [URL='https://www.si.com/college/2022/11/02/bill-self-suspension-kansas-jayhawks-basketball-self-imposed-sanctions-ncaa-investigation-2017']suspended for four games last season[/URL], was instead charged with a Level III violation and no additional penalties. Assistant coach Kurtis Townsend, who was suspended four games last year as well, also had his charges reduced from Level I to a Level II and a Level III violation, with no additional penalties. Neither coach faces a show-cause order, which could have been applicable for Level I violations." [/QUOTE]
