Message: [QUOTE="GoSU96, post: 319467, member: 114"] If the NCAA determines, in its sole discretion, that the university materially breached any provision of the AIA, such action shall be considered grounds for extending the term of the AIA[U][B] or imposing additional sanctions, up to and including a temporary ban on participation in certain intercollegiate athletic competition[/B][/U] and additional fines. The NCAA shall be permitted to accept as true and take into consideration all factual findings of the Freeh Report in imposing additional sanctions related to breach of the AIA and may initiate further NCA investigative and administrative proceedings. The NCAA will provide the university notice of the allegation of a material breach and an opportunity to respond, but the final determination rests with the NCAA. [B][U]Appointment of an independent Athletics Integrity Monitor[/U] for a five-year period.[/B] The NCAA requires that the university appoint an independent Athletics Integrity Monitor for a five-year period, at the university's expense. The monitor will prepare a quarterly report to the university's board of trustees, the Big Ten Conference, and the NCAA regarding the university's execution and maintenance of the provisions of the AIA. The monitor will make recommendations to the university to take any steps he or she reasonably believes are necessary to comply with the terms of the AIA and to enhance compliance with NCAA rules and regulations. The Monitor will operate under the following conditions: [LIST] [*][U][B]He or she will be selected by the NCAA[/B][/U], in consultation with the university and the Big Ten Conference. [*][U][B]He or she will have access to any university[/B][/U] facilities, personnel [U][B]and non-privileged documents and records[/B][/U] as are reasonably necessary to assist in the execution of his or her duties. The university shall preserve all such records as directed by the monitor. [*]He or she will have the authority to employ legal counsel, consultants, investigators, experts and other personnel reasonably necessary to assit in the proper discharge of his or her duties. His or her expenses will be paid by the university, and the university shall indemnify and hold harmless the monitor and his or her professional advisors from any claim by any third party except for conduct: a) outside the scope of the monitor's duties; b) undertaken in bad faith; or c) constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct [/LIST] --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Anything that hints of them trying to get around scholarship limits could bring down the death penalty on top of what they have now. The school is going to make sure that if kids are walking on that there is zero outside aid other than what is available to any other incoming student. [/QUOTE]
