Report: Corruption Case Threatens 50+ Hoops Programs

[ArmyVet]

Didn't want to start a new thread, but noted that former Big East member PITT had basketball and football program get probation. Stallings get a three year show clause.

Pittsburgh's men's basketball and football programs have been placed on three years' probation and former basketball coach Kevin Stallings received a three-year show-cause order as part of a series of violations announced by the Division I Committee on Infractions on Thursday.

Stallings is not referenced by name in the report, but the violations agreement -- covering a period from August 2015 to March 2018 -- said Pitt's former basketball coach instructed and allowed three non-coaching staff members to perform coaching duties, which exceeded the number of permissible coaches on staff.

Stallings also developed an alert system to ensure the non-permissible coaches would not get caught and ordered the deletion of video to prevent Pitt administration from confirming the violations, according to the report.

Despite being warned by administrators within the athletic department, Stallings did not cease the violations and was determined that he failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance while at Pitt.

Under the show-cause order, if Stallings is hired within that time span by a member school, he must be suspended from 30% of the first season of employment.

not sure where to place this but wow...
NCAA just hit ex-Penn coach Jerome Allen with 15-year show cause for “violating ethical conduct rules when he accepted at least $250,000 from the father of a prospect to train, recruit and place the prospect on the recruited student-athlete list.” Allen is now Celtics assistant.

Don't think I've ever heard of a 15 yr show cause. Dave Bliss got a 10 yr one.
