The Nevin Shapiro Scandal

Imposed by NCAA

1. Miami will lose a total of nine football scholarships over the next three seasons. Miami also will lose a total of three basketball scholarships over the next three seasons (one per year).

2. Miami has been placed on three years' probation: from Oct.22, 2013 through Oct.21, 2016. Miami was found guilty of "lack of institutional control."

3. Miami may only provide a prospect on unofficial visits complimentary tickets for one home game during the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons.

Self-imposed by UM

1. Two-year bowl ban following the 2011 and 2012 seasons, including the 2012 ACC Championship game.

2. Reduction of official paid visits for 2012-13 by 20 percent to a total of 36 visits.

Penalties for coaches

1. Missouri coach and former UM basketball coach Frank Haith will receive a five-game suspension.

2. Former UM receivers coach Aubrey Hill, former UM defensive line coach Clint Hurtt and former UM assistant basketball coach Jorge Fernandez received two-year show cause penalties. (Hurtt is on Louisville's staff (pending a decision by the school), but the penalty will make it difficult for Hill and Fernandez to land jobs in the next two years.)

3. Former assistant basketball coach Jake Morton did not get a show cause penalty. Of the five former UM coaches who received notices of allegation, he was the only one not to get a show-cause or suspension.
