LANSING, Mich. (WILX) - The Michigan State University football team will vacate wins and be placed on three years of probation for recruiting violations during the Mel Tucker era.
MSU, the NCAA and the Division I Committee on Infractions (COI) reached a negotiated resolution associated with rules violations by former staff members within the MSU football program and “the school’s failure to monitor the football program.”
As a result of violations, the COI imposed the following penalties:
Three years of probation
A financial penalty of $30,000 plus 1.5% of the budget for the football program
Restrictions on official visits, unofficial visits, recruiting communication, recruiting-person days and off-campus recruiting contacts and evaluations over the three-year probationary period
