$5,000 dollar fine for the football program? I guess they will have to shut it down now.
 
This does feel like it shoulda been a bigger deal... like take away their ACC championship. Oh wait.

Basketball coach Kevin Stallings also developed an alert system to ensure the non-permissible coaches would not get caught and ordered the deletion of video to prevent Pitt administration from confirming the violations, according to the report. Despite being warned by administrators within the athletic department, Stallings did not cease the violations and was determined that he failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance while at Pitt. ... The report also states that Pitt's former director of basketball operations produced personalized recruiting videos for 12 prospects to watch while visiting the school and later refused to participate in an enforcement interview about his involvement with the activities while on staff at Pitt.

In addition, football coach Pat Narduzzi was found to have been present at a football practice when three former quality control staff members performed coaching duties, which also exceeded the number of permissible coaches. The violation went undetected in part because the football program used a system to play music when outside parties were present at practice, triggering the quality control staffers to stay clear of the student-athletes.
