NCAA scandals

NCAA scandals are very serious and one NCAA scandal that happened is Syracuse is being punished for three things. Those three things are improper benefits, academic conduct, and a failure to enforce the school's drug policy. It took the NCAA eight years to finish the investigation on the improprieties within Syracuse's athletic department. The end result was one of the toughest punishments college sports has ever seen. Orange's past, present and future in handing out a penalty that includes the vacation of 108 wins from coach Jim Boeheim's record, and the loss of three scholarships per year for the next four seasons. More than anything, the NCAA is punishing Syracuse for "a lack of institutional control." Boeheim was given a nine game suspension and Syracuse has to pay up a lot of money. One million dollars and the school has to return all of the money. There is also a $500 fine per game played by an ineligible student athlete. Syracuse is being punished for violations that spanned a decade.
