Mizzou football team banned from bowl this season as part of academic fraud penalties

[Cajunfanatico]

In the case of the NCAA vs. Missouri, transparency was grounds for a harsher punishment. Just ask athletic director Jim Sterk.

The Tigers' football team was banned from competing in a bowl game this season as part of penalties announced Thursday by the NCAA following an investigation into academic fraud committed by a former tutor.

The NCAA found the tutor, Yolanda Kumar, "violated NCAA ethical conduct, academic misconduct and academic extra benefits rules when she completed academic work for 12 student-athletes," according to a Division I Committee on Infractions panel.

Mizzou will appeal the decision, which includes three years of probation and one-year postseason bans, scholarship reductions and vacation of records for the football, softball and baseball teams for games in which the 12 athletes participated.

"The university moved swiftly and fully cooperated with the NCAA Enforcement staff to jointly investigate the allegations that were made," Sterk said. "We are shocked and dismayed by the penalties that have been imposed today and will aggressively fight for what is right.

This guy got it.

We have essentially caught treams in down times before and not capitalized. Ole Miss was in the middle of the Freeze fallout and they still kicked our butts.

We did beat K State in a year were they went 6-6. Snyder's first year back after s coaching change, I think.
