Ark. St. proposes penalties for NCAA violations

Arkansas State is offering to forfeit victories in several sports from the 2005-2007 seasons, plus cut one football and one basketball scholarship for two years, as penalties for inadvertently allowing ineligible athletes to play.

A Monday news release from ASU says the school had submitted a summary-disposition report to the NCAA Infractions Committee. The report is on violations of NCAA rules on progress-toward-degree requirements, originally discovered by the school and self-reported to the NCAA.

ASU says it’s also prepared to forfeit six football wins in the 2006 season and four in 2005, 15 men’s basketball wins in the 2006-2007 season, 12 basketball wins in 2005-2006, three baseball wins in the 2006-2007 season, and five women’s soccer wins during the 2005-2006 season.
