Maryland men's and women's basketball programs hit for NCAA rules violations

The Maryland men’s and women’s basketball programs committed minor rules violations, the NCAA announced Tuesday.

After he joined Mark Turgeon’s staff as director of player personnel for the 2017-18 season, current assistant coach Matt Brady instructed a player on his shooting form on 10 occasions without telling coach Mark Turgeon or members of his staff, and also provided Turgeon, at the coach’s behest, with oral scouting reports eight times.

Brady, a former Division I head coach at James Madison and Marist who became an assistant following the 2017-18 season, was suspended by the athletic department for the first six games of the 2018-19 season, as well as prohibited him from attending 15 practices.
