In another classic case of NCAA hypocrisy, Stephen F. Austin is being forced to vacate a total of 289 wins, including conference championships, across several sports over the course of 2013 to 2019. Due to an administrative error in regards to the academic administration office, 82 student-athletes were ruled eligible when they actually were not.
The University has been hit with Level 1 violations. Banners from the basketball team’s conference championships will be taken down.
The damage done from this is going to rock the SFA program for a while. On Wednesday, the athletic department was placed on a three-season postseason ban.
