NCAA Legal Cases
This is an excerpt from the paper...
The National Collegiate Athletic Association bylaws provide a list of banned drugs or substances in Bylaw 31.2.3.5. Baylor UniversityÆs basketball program was recently reprimanded, censured and penalized with five years of probation and ôlimited in schedule for one year to the number of games contained in the conference regular seasonö (Major, 2005, p. 1). The issue responsible for these sanctions stems from NCAA Bylaw 10.2, which maintains ôA member institutionÆs athletic department staff members who have knowledge of a student-athleteÆs use at any time of a substance on the list of banned drugs, as set forth in Bylaw 31.2.3.5, shall follow institutional procedures dealing with drug abuse or be subject to disciplinary or corrective action as set forth in Bylaw 19.5.2.2ö (NCAA, 2006, p. 53). At their NCAA infraction hearing, Baylor athletic department staff were found in violation of Bylaw 10.2, for failing to follow procedures for reporting banned drug use. The University was also found to be in violation of Bylaw 6.01.1, institutional control, and Bylaw 10.1, unethical conduct.

Conclusion
The final outcome of Baylor UniversityÆs violation of Bylaws 10.1, 10.2, and 6.01.1 resulted in a number of penalties against the institution which are illustrated in the following list:
Public reprimand and censure.
Probation for five years, from 2005-2010.
A two year ban on participating in non-conference basketball games.
Financial aid reductions of four menÆs basketball scholarships for 2004-05 and one for 2005-06.
A reduction in the number of paid recruiting visits from 12 to 9 for the 2006-07 academic years.
The infractions hearing committee also noted that the head coach resigned and his coaching staff was replaced at the outcome of their hearing. ESSAY TWO
