ATLANTA, Georgia -- Morehouse College's Atheltic Department faces a three-year probation and $5,000 fine for three major violations of NCAA bylaws occurring from 2009 to 2015. In July, the NCAA released the public infraction decision as part of its agreement with Morehouse College. The decision details how both the athletic department and the college occurred three NCAA infractions -- (1) NCAA Division II Manual Bylaw 14.4.3.3.5, NCAA Division II Manual Bylaw 15.3.2.3, and NCAA Division II Manual Constitution 2.8.1.
From academic years 2009-2010 to 2014-2015, the athletic department attested to playing 29 ineligible student-athletes; failing to "properly certify student-athletes' eligibility in two areas (1) continuing eligibility (progress-toward-degree requirements); and (2) good academic standing"; and improperly signing financial aid awards. This decision involves the football, cross-country, basketball, golf and baseball programs.
