Arizona can finally close the book on a dark chapter of its recent past.
The NCAA’s Independent Accountability Resolution Process (IARP) has made its decision on how to punish Arizona for numerous alleged violations, mostly by the men’s basketball program under former coach Sean Miller.
And the punishment is … not that much. Or at least, not much more than had already been self-imposed.
The Wildcats will lose one scholarship for the 2023-24 season, while for a 7-week period during the 2022-23 season they’ll be unable to communicate with recruits via phone or written messages.
