Source: NCAA rejects the appeal of the USC of penalties

USC has been notified by the Board of appeal of NCAA violations that all findings against the athletic department and penalties have been maintained as a close person of the situation.


USC had indicated in its previous call as the reason that their sentences were excessive. But the Board of appeal stated that these cases were not directly applicable, said the source.


USC coach Lane Kiffin talks about Mike Brown, Matt Barkley, how Trojans is dealing with NCAA sanctions and much more.

"Podcasts more."

USC losing 30 scholarships over the next three years and will be ineligible to play in title game this year, PAC-12 or a bowl game.


Continuing the provision also allows upperclassmen USC transferred to FBS schools without the typical penalty of one year, Trojans coach Lane Kiffin called "free agency" last year. Any senior USC can transfer this shoulder and play his final season in a school of his choice.


The NCAA imposed these penalties in June 2010, after decision Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush and basketball player O.J. Mayo received improper benefits. The University has also cited for a lack of institutional control. Bush made his Heisman Trophy.


Two weeks after the decision, school officials said in June they should seduce some penalties, as excessive. The Trojans were given four years probation, were to leave 14 victories and were required to ban Bush in the program.


News on Wednesday probably closes the book on the case of the USC with the NCAA, as sports director USC Pat Haden said in January that the school would take no other action following the announcement of the appeal decision.


USC issued a statement Wednesday, the specific comments until Thursday.


"USC has received a response from the NCAA on our appeal of NCAA sanctions," said the statement. "However, under NCAA rules, we cannot comment on this response until the NCAA releases the decision to the public tomorrow morning (May 26).".
