The University of San Francisco’s men’s golf program last week received a one-year probation after the NCAA determined that two former head coaches engaged in recruiting violations over a four-year period.
The NCAA Division I Committee on Infractions ruled that the school failed to monitor its golf program and promote an atmosphere of compliance.
As a result, USF, ranked 45th in the country, was placed on one year of probation (through April 5, 2019), prohibited from recruiting activities with international players for three months, vacated the records of the ineligible student-athletes, and received a one-month recruiting ban and a $5,000 fine.
