UVa and the NCAA announced that the Hoos will face a relatively minor set of sanctions for recruiting violations that occurred during 2016.
Here’s what happened:
The newly hired football staff wanted to personally verify the height and weight of position-specific prospects before offering scholarships to them. For this reason, the coaches decided to pose for photos standing next to prospects. During the spring 2016 evaluation period, the staff posed for photos with 32 prospects at 23 high schools.
Reaction from fans has been a pretty resounding “Well that’s stupid.”
@Cavs_Corner The rules are kind of dumb and antiquated anyway.
