Mods feel free to move... Thought this would be the best place for this.

Oklahoma admits 2 major violations in men's hoops

Highlights

Oklahoma says it committed two major violations in its men's basketball program
The school asked the NCAA to place its program on two more years of probation
The incidents occurred while Oklahoma was still on probation for other violations

I believe this is what you would qualify as a repeat offender and possibly Lack of institutional control

Wonder if this will be on ESPN or if anyone will cry that they are being punished to lightly if they get away with probation. Of course the talking heads here are calling for the end of Choklahoma basketball for several seasons

NCAA Finds Major Violations in Sooners Basketball

Oklahoma had about one quarter of its recruiting days this season taken away by the NCAA on Friday as punishment for committing major violations while the men's basketball program already was on probation.

The NCAA Division I infractions committee reduced the Sooners' recruiting days from 130 to 100 and also put Oklahoma on probation for three years, vacated all 13 wins from the 2009-10 season, took away one scholarship and eliminated two of the school's 12 allowed official visits this year.

Former assistant coach Oronde Taliaferro, who resigned during the investigation, also was prohibited from recruiting for two years.

However, the Sooners were not labeled a "repeat violator," avoiding the possibility of more severe penalties.

So let me get this straight...Your already on probation because your former coach was addicted to texting like a crack head... new guys come in... one of his assistants doesn't report improper benefits.... and this is all they get.... I guess this makes me feel better about our situation in Football.
