The NCAA has placed USC's football program on probation for a violation of rules between 2022 and 2023.

In a release issued on Tuesday (h/t Connor Morrissette of 247Sports.com), the discipline stems from a violation of "on- and off-field coaching activities" during the spring of 2022, fall of 2022 and spring of 2023 resulting in the program "exceeding the permissible number of countable coaches by six for two academic years."

USC was also fined $50,000.
