Florida State is petitioning the NCAA for reduced penalties levied on the school for NIL rule violations related to football recruiting efforts that took place in spring 2022, according to Yahoo Sports' Ross Dellenger.
The penalties, as announced by the NCAA in January, included a fine as well as a reduction in scholarships, official visits and recruiting communications.
In a three-page letter to the NCAA D-I Committee on Infractions, a law firm representing FSU petitioned the NCAA to reconsider these penalties as well as a three-year disassociation from a booster, Dellenger reported.
FSU has agreed to other parts of the negotiated penalty, including a three-game suspension for the involved assistant coach, Dellenger noted.
