“We are hopeful the NCAA will recognize our sincere effort to adhere to NCAA rules and will accept our self-imposed sanctions,” athletic director Jamie Pollard said. “We are definitely a stronger organization as a result of what we learned about our internal monitoring system and we look forward to resolving these self-reported violations in a timely manner.”
So what are they going to do? Restrict the amount of fertilizer they put on their cheerleaders' alfalfa?

What is interesting is that it appears to be a 'blanket' violation covering multiple sports. Is it so the NCAA does not target just one sport?? The violations are from 2008 to 2011, yet the football team is mentioned from 2011 to 2012. Is the basketball team to blame for the other years?
The articles I have read are all the same. Bad reporting? No one sport is mentioned for the violations over the span of the years. Not sure what Jamie has going on over there...
These are the same violations that brought Indiana down. Although that was by a repeat offender.

The reason the readings are all the same is because they are going off the university press release. The NCAA is not commenting and this was not a result of investigative journalism. Here's how it works. The university sends a statement to paper. Paper throws in a lead and a few transitional statements. Presto, it's an article!

Most likely that story was written by AP's correspondent in Iowa City instead of the news service's main office in Des Moines, so that's why the Iowa City dateline was used. It's confusing, however, and certainly could have been posted without a dateline.
