Oklahoma State hit with probation, fine for NCAA infractions

On Friday, the NCAA determined that the Oklahoma State University athletic department violated NCAA policies by not following its own drug testing policy and allowed a student group to participate in hosting prospects, according to a decision issued by a Division I Committee on Infractions panel.

The school was penalized with one year of probation, $8,500 in fines, suspension of the Orange Pride student group program and university-imposed recruiting restrictions.

This case stemmed from a series of articles published in Sports Illustrated stating various claims of alleged NCAA violations. According to the NCAA report, more than 50,000 emails and other documents were reviewed and nearly 90 interviews were conducted. Many of the allegations from the series of articles were unfounded, but the investigation concluded that the university violated its drug testing policy and committed recruiting violations.
