The University of the Pacific has imposed several penalties on its men’s basketball program in wake of a joint investigation with the NCAA over alleged academic misconduct.
Pacific will not compete in the postseason this season, including the West Coast Conference Tournament, and will reduce the number of basketball scholarships by a total of six over three years. Recruiting also will be limited.
Pacific Athletic Director Ted Leland said in a statement Thursday the investigation uncovered Level I violations, the most serious NCAA rules infractions, and include academic misconduct.
