NORMAN, Okla. -- The NCAA has put Oklahoma on three years of probation and issued a $15,000 fine for major violations in its men's basketball program.

The Division I infractions committee also vacated all 13 wins from Oklahoma's 2009-10 season, took away a scholarship and limited recruiting efforts.

Most of the penalties had been proposed by the school, which said former assistant Oronde Taliaferro broke NCAA rules by failing to report that a player had received an impermissible extra benefit and by lying to investigators.

The violations occurred while the Sooners were still on probation for major rules violations involving recruiting phone calls by former coach Kelvin Sampson and football players being paid for work they weren't doing at a Norman car dealership.

Under NCAA bylaws, a "repeat violator" can face a minimum of having the sport dropped for one or two seasons.

What does the probation mean? Is that a post-season ban or what?

Does it say postseason ban?

Probation is nothing. It means if we mess up again during those three years, our punishment will be harsher than if we weren't on probation.

No, no it does not.

Ah, so a slap on the wrist. It took them that long to take a scholarship away?

Personally, I'm pretty pissed that the NCAA is making us OU basketball fans forget about that 13-18 season that started with us being ranked #17 in the country.

It sounds like we got a good deal from the NCAA. In the big scheme of things, losing one scholarship for a program that was already on probation is relatively minor.

My guess is that if Capel had still been the coach the penalties might have been worse.

I wish they would vacate the time I spent watching them play after Midnight in Alaska.

Is the scholarship loss just for the 2011-12 season?

Weren't you already on probation when these violations occurred?
