INDIANAPOLIS (AP) -- Boise State met with the NCAA Committee on Infractions on Friday to discuss violations by its highly successful football program and other sports.
The football violations under review were committed between 2005 and 2008. The program already is dealing with several self-imposed penalties, including fewer scholarships for the next two years and reduced practice time.
The sanctions are part of a broader penalty package put in place by university officials for violations that also involve men's and women's tennis, and track and field. An NCAA inquiry and an internal investigation by the school identified 22 infractions and an absence of institutional controls necessary to fully comply with rules governing collegiate athletic programs.
The meeting began at 8:30 a.m. and ended nearly 13 hours later. Boise State athletic director Gene Bleymaier said he would have no comment when approached Friday.
