NCAA Concurs With Results Of LSU Recruiting Probe
BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — The NCAA has informed LSU that it did not find any additional violations beyond what the university reported following an internal investigation into allegations of improper contact between a former player and former assistant coach.
The initial probe, which began in the fall of 2009, centered around wide receivers coach D.J. McCarthy, who resigned late last season, and defensive lineman Akiem Hicks, a junior college transfer who never played.
LSU reported its findings to the NCAA in March and has since sanctioned itself with the loss of two scholarships for 2011-12 and with a reduction in recruiting visits.
LSU Chancellor Michael Martin says the NCAA's notice of allegations, delivered this week, affirms LSU's findings.
