The NCAA has sanctioned the SMU men's basketball program for multiple violations, including academic fraud and unethical conduct, a Division I Committee on Infractions panel has ruled.
The penalties will keep SMU from the 2016 postseason. In addition, Larry Brown, who was cited for a lack of head coach control, has been suspended for nine games during the upcoming season.
The penalties were revealed Tuesday, more than eight months after the school acknowledged an NCAA investigation. It is the 10th major infractions case for SMU over the years.
