Texas Tech athletic director Gerald Myers says the public likely has already seen some of what will emerge from a 20-month NCAA investigation into the school.
Texas Tech scheduled a news conference for tonight to release an NCAA official letter of inquiry."You can pretty well assume all the things that have been in the media over the last several months are probably going to be in there," Myers said Sunday of the letter.
Myers said he hadn't yet seen the letter and probably would get it this morning. The Associated Press was unable Sunday night to reach the NCAA, which has declined to comment since its investigation began in February 1996.
The Houston Chronicle in March 1995 began a series of stories containing a variety of alleged violations the athletic department, including possible grade irregularities, questionable coursework and recruiting violations, mostly in the men's basketball and football programs.
A month ago, the university released an internal audit revealing 76 athletes have competed ineligibly since 1991 because of a rash of academic compliance mistakes.
