According to this report, TSUN received the notice of violations from the NCAA on Monday, February 22nd, and the University has 90 days to file a response.

TSUN recently said they will send the response next Monday, May 24th, and then release their response to the public within a few hours after that.

Now I've never taken a college course about Day-Timers, but May 24th is 91 days after February 22nd.

It would be hilarious if they got reprimanded for their response not being recieved in time.

No reprimand, just a lousy tip. If they're going to make the NCAA wait for it, they should at least keep the response in one of those Heat Wave bags so it's still warm when it gets there.

Look out San Diego St - Tate is gunning for you (assuming he is still in AA in 2011).

What's he going to do, grip the clipboard more fiercely? Distract SDSU with jazz hands from the sideline?

Tater tot, your coaches are going with a guy who can't throw it in the ocean standing on the beach to avoid your turnovers you silly little bastard. I'd be more worried about that than exacting revenge for imagined recruiting disrespect.

In other words you were the pioneer who got the arrows, your boy Shoeless Joe who Can't Throw is the settler who's going to get the land you fuckhead.

Rodriguez has said he retained counsel.

Is this a reference to the attorney he needed when being sued by West Virginia for breach of contract?

Or is this a reference to the attorney he needed when being sued in regards to condo investment?

Or is this a reference to the attorney he needs just to cover his actions while coaching football?

This is a complex man of many layers.

Just like an onion. And just like an onion, he brings tears to not one, but fans of both OSU and scUM, for completely different reasons. That takes true talent.

U-M sanctions football program: Cut staff, practice time


Michigan's storied football program will be on probation for two years, reduce practice hours and cut its quality control staff as part of self-imposed sanctions offered in the university's response to the NCAA's allegations of major rules violations.
University officials submitted the response to the NCAA on Monday and made the contents public this morning. Coach Rich Rodriguez also filed a separate response that was released to the public today as well.


****


? Allegation No. 1: The NCAA alleged that from January 2008 through September 2009, the program exceeded the limit on the number of coaches by five when quality-control staff members were involved in on- and off-field coaching, which was not permitted.
Michigan's response: Michigan has reduced the number of quality control staff members by 40 percent, from five to three, which will be in place through 2012, and prohibit them from attending practices, games and coaches meetings for the remainder of 2010.
Although the NCAA has adopted a new bylaw that allows non-coaching, sport-specific staff to attend coaches meetings, Michigan will not allow its quality control staff to take advantage of the new bylaw until 2011.
"The 60 percent remaining on the quality control staff, we're basically putting them out of commission for a year," Brandon said. "So they're not going to be in a position to do the things we expect them to do, so that is a detriment to the program as we go forward."
? Allegation No. 2: Michigan monitored and conducted what were thought to be voluntary workouts and exceeded practice time limits. The NCAA alleged football staffers improperly monitored and conducted voluntary summer workouts. It also alleged Michigan exceeded time limits for countable athletically related activities during and outside the season.
Michigan's response: University officials estimated the program exceeded the CARA (countable athletically related activities) in 2008 and 2009 by 65 hours. It has self-imposed reduction in practice and training times on a 2:1 basis, totaling 130 hours the next two years.
"We matched up to the extent we had overages in the summer, we've multiplied by two," Brandon said, adding the same formula that has been applied to fall and winter workouts. "We've proportionally penalized ourselves according to the part of the year we ... (had) overages."
In Rodriguez's response, his attorney makes clear "Rodriguez changed nothing about the CARA form process that was already in place when he arrived," adding that even before Rodriguez arrived at Michigan in January 2008, the program had "historically been late in submitting CARA forms to compliance staff." His response indicates Brad Labadie, director of football operations, was "responsible for completing and submitting CARA forms before Rodriguez arrived and he kept that responsibility after Rodriguez became head coach."
? Allegation No. 3: Herron provided "false and misleading information to the NCAA during its investigation. After denying to the NCAA he was involved in skill development during voluntary workouts in the summers of 2008 and 2009, Herron then told the NCAA nearly three months later he was briefly present at the start of the drills but did not participate. The NCAA alleged Herron monitored and conducted skill-development workouts.
Michigan's response: Herron was "terminated" after Michigan received notice of the allegations.
? Allegation No. 4: Rodriguez failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance within the program and failed to monitor staff members and time limits for practices.
Michigan's response: University officials disagree with the NCAA that Rodriguez failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance. Information gathered by the university during its investigation shows Rodriguez has been committed to compliance with NCAA bylaws and with the academic success of his players.
Rodriguez agrees there were instances mistakes were made in monitoring some areas under his control. In his response, however, he denies he failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance. As his response cited, Rodriguez has been an NCAA coach for 14 years and never has been involved in a major infraction and "he takes rules compliance seriously and demands that his staff do the same."
Brandon made clear Rodriguez was joined in the "instances of mistakes" by others in the athletic and athletic compliance departments. Rodriguez's response covers that ground as well.
"I believe our coach needed an opportunity to explain ... from his perspective," Brandon said. "These things are not simple and he made a very strong effort to really allow people who want it to read it objectively see how it transpired, why it transpired and have a better sense of what he was trying to do."
? Allegation No. 5: The athletic department failed to adequately monitor its program to assure compliance with regard to the duties of football coaches and practice time limits. The NCAA said the compliance staff failed to follow its own established procedures for monitoring training activities when it did not collect required documents between January 2008 and May 2009.
Michigan's response: Michigan has issued letters of reprimand to seven individuals who shared in the responsibility for these violations -- Rodriguez, strength and conditioning coach Mike Barwis, assistant athletic director for football Scott Draper, Labadie, senior associate athletic director Joe Parker, associate athletic director for compliance Judy Van Horn, and assistant athletic director for compliance Ann Vollano.
"No one likes that in their permanent file," Brandon said of the letters.
Michigan also has, according to the response, taken corrective measures to prevent violations from occurring in the future. The university has implemented a "fail-safe" procedure to help ensure internal tracking in a timely way.
