NCAA hands South Carolina men's basketball 2-year probation

The NCAA's decision put an end to South Carolina's role in the college basketball corruption case that began in 2017.

The Gamecocks largely avoided more serious penalties like a postseason ban for what the NCAA deemed a Level I infractions case. South Carolina coach Frank Martin was not named in any NCAA allegations.

"We move forward and I am thankful to have this situation behind us," Martin said in a statement.

Evans worked at South Carolina for four seasons before leaving for Oklahoma State following the 2015-16 season. He pleaded guilty to bribery conspiracy for taking some $22,000 to steer basketball prospects to the school in Columbia.
