Stanford has admitted to a pair of Level II NCAA violations for the first time in its athletic department's history.
The university self-reported both transgressions in 2014. One came in football, where former wide receiver Devon Cajuste received impermissible benefits valued at under $400 from his summer landlord. The other came in softball, where an internal inquiry found that head coach John Rittman disregarded NCAA limits on team practice hours.
The university forced Rittman to resign after its inquiry, while the NCAA reinstated Cajuste's eligibility after he repaid the value of the impermissible benefits to charity and served a one-game suspension in the 2014 season opener.
