BREAKING: Details to come, but major NCAA violations found in #Mizzou basketball program. Entire 2013-14 season to be vacated.

Not much known now. They won't be in the SEC Tournament though this season.

@jerrymeyer247 @JoeWalljasper Sounds like Tulsa vetted Haith as poorly as Tennessee vetted Tyndall

lmao

Missouri says it received a verbal NCAA notice of inquiry on April 14, 2014. Frank Haith took the Tulsa job four days later.

People like Haith should not be allowed to be head coaches again, as they abandon one fire only to start another. Haith was tied to the 2011 University of Miami scandal involving Nevin Shapiro.

There seems to be a pattern here. Why would anyone hire the guy at this point:question:

Because he got Miami (FL) to not just the NCAA tournament but the second round is my guess (the school's only made it into the postseason like 7 times total).

All I know is he took a 30-5 team that finished a regular season #3 and had won the Big 12 tournament - at a school that had made the NCAA tournament 4 years in a row and like 9 of the last 14 seasons - and in less than 2 years destroyed it. (After they finally got him out of there, it won like 9 games total last year).

Tulsa should terminate Haith's contract. Tulsa can do much better. That is a program that spring boards coaches to bigger programs (Nolan Richardson, Tubby Smith, Bill Self,....Danny Manning???).

So Mizzou is about to get pounded by the NCAA yet UNC plays on...

I wish someone would explain this to me.

For a university to cheat in athletics is bad enough, but to cheat in academics is worse. That not only subverts the whole foundation of education, but it cheats every past and current athlete and student at the institution.

So how is UNC still fielding teams and having no sanctions?

Never understood why Mizzou would take the chance. His malfeasance at Miami was no secret when they hired him.

Two things:

1. Missouri is self-imposing sanctions in hope that the NCAA says that was enough down the line whenever they actually hear the case.

2. It is ridiculous that UNC has not been punished yet, but is anyone really surprised? At some point, the NCAA will stop taking their time and levy sanctions that aren't severe enough because they don't have the guts to kill the UNC basketball program.

Does that work? First the SEC pounded Pearl, then UT smacked him, then the NCAA really worked him over. (And how did he get the big buy out when he left? Off topic, just wondered.). So I would think Mizzery would just wait for the NCAA to hit...apparently conference and school penalties don't impact their actions.

Yes, it does work sometimes if they are hard enough on themselves. They seem to have done a pretty good job of covering bases here, but you can never tell with the NCAA.

Yes, it does. Southern Cal's self-punishments (scholarship reduction, self-suspension from the tournament, wins vacated, etc) were the reason its basketball program didn't get hammered nearly as hard as the football program did however many years back.

I wish, one time, that a school (with the conference backing) would tell the NCAA to "shove it" until they deal will with UNC (Chapel Hill) appropriately.

USC told them to shove it.

Actually, that's probably what the NCAA needs. They've been almost toothless ever since how badly they botched that Miami investigation (and overstepped their own bounds) and the thing with Penn State.
