Bill Self, Kansas avoid major penalties with conclusion of NCAA infractions case

The NCAA has provided its final ruling on the Kansas basketball infractions case, and the Jayhawks saw several penalties revised downward.

According to a report from Sports Illustrated, the NCAA’s Independent Accountability Review Process (IARP) concluded that the five Level I allegations against the program ultimately did not rise to that standard.

As a result, the IARP doled out a three-year probation for Kansas that will not include any postseason prohibitions. Moreover, coach Bill Self and assistant coach Kurtis Townsend both avoided a show-cause penalty.

Kansas will have to vacate all wins in which Silvio De Sousa played in during the 2017-18 campaign, a total of 15.
