Memphis men's basketball team facing multiple NCAA violations

Memphis is reportedly facing four Level I and two Level II NCAA violations stemming from an 18-month investigation into the Tigers' men's basketball program.

The Daily Memphian obtained the notice of allegations and an amended notice of allegations from the Independent Accountability Resolution Process investigation. An infractions case involving former Memphis center James Wiseman was the first case accepted by the IARP in the spring of 2020.

Memphis head coach Penny Hardaway is the only person named in the notice of allegations, according to the report. It says Hardaway was involved in at least one of the Level I violations and the two Level II violations. The NCAA alleges Hardaway "failed to demonstrate that he promoted an atmosphere of compliance within the men's basketball program."

The Memphis Commercial Appeal, which also obtained the documents, reported that the investigation extended beyond Wiseman.

Letter alleges more NCAA violations against Penny Hardaway as tumult surrounding Memphis basketball increases​

Hardaway is under the NCAA microscope -- again​

The University of Memphis acknowledged Wednesday to Sports Illustrated that it has handed over a letter to the NCAA from an anonymous author that alleges multiple rules violations within the men's basketball program. Among the allegations are that head coach Penny Hardaway paid to secure the commitments of two players between 2020 and 2022.

While college basketball players are allowed to be compensated for use of their name, image and likeness -- and soon through direct revenue-sharing with their schools -- the allegations against Hardaway fall outside the bounds of what's permissible under NCAA rules.

Specifically, it's alleged in the letter, which has been reviewed by CBS Sports, that Hardaway "initiated" a $30,000 payment to the prep school coach of a now-former player in order to secure the player's commitment in 2020. The letter's writer also claimed that Hardaway paid $60,000 for another player's commitment in 2022, even though that player never ultimately suited up for the Tigers.

Also included in the letter are allegations about the scope of academic misconduct within the program. The program's academic advisor was fired in February, just as veteran center Malcolm Dandridge was suspended for potential academic misconduct.

Memphis, which has been operating under new athletic director Ed Scott since July, self-reported the issue with Dandridge to the NCAA, according to the Commercial Appeal. But in the letter, it's alleged that four players were involved in the alleged academic malfeasance through a scheme where others would be paid to complete assignments for the players.
