Virginia was placed on two years' probation by the NCAA for making improper loans to athletes. As part of its penalty, Virginia can have only one instead of two graduate assistant football coaches for one season, will lose two football scholarships during each of the next two academic years and was directed to implement a program to educate athletic department personnel about NCAA rules.
A 15-page report by the NCAA Infractions Committee on the violations was separate from another one done on what link, if any, NCAA executive director Dick Schultz had to the loans while he was Virginia's athletic director from 1981-87. That report, prepared by a private investigator hired by the NCAA, has not been released. It was being reviewed by the NCAA's Executive Committee and Joint Policy Board.
