The NCAA has hammered Missouri’s football, baseball and softball programs due to academic tutor misconduct.
The organization released the following list of punishments today with a straight face while fully knowing that North Carolina went unpunished for years of alleged academic fraud:
The NCAA report is out on #Mizzou. Softball and baseball banned from 2018-19 postseason. Football banned from 2019-20 postseason. Each of those programs will have a 5% reduction in scholarships for the 2019-20 year. Full penalties in the pic pic.twitter.com/oA3JCGD9sk
Here’s the release from the NCAA, which often sticks it to programs like Missouri while letting programs like North Carolina cheat without punishment:
A former University of Missouri, Columbia, tutor 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.
