INDIANAPOLIS (AP) - The NCAA has rejected an appeal from former
Indiana basketball coach Kelvin Sampson.
The NCAA said Tuesday that the NCAA Division I infractions
Committee has upheld the violations stemming from more than 100
impermissible phone calls made while Sampson was coaching at
Indiana.
Sampson received five years of potential penalties when the NCAA
ruled on the case, including an order that could keep him from
coaching in college for the next four years.
Sampson said the NCAA misinterpreted evidence and that the
infractions committee was biased against him.
