The NCAA Committee on Infractions is scheduled to announce Tuesday morning whether UCF will face additional penalties for major recruiting violations within the football and men's basketball programs."UCF is committed to winning with integrity and setting the standard for NCAA compliance," UCF spokesman Grant Heston said. "Tuesday?s announcement represents the latest step in our ongoing process."
Former UCF athletics director Keith Tribble and wide receivers coach David Kelly were forced to resign in November due to their ties to the investigation. UCF men's basketball coach Donnie Jones was suspended for three Conference USA games for failing to stop Caldwell from tampering with recruits, a process that began before he was hired and appeared to be sanctioned by Tribble. Former UCF point guard A.J. Rompza missed the first 12 games of the 2011-12 season because he received money from Caldwell, who had been his mentor since the fifth grade.NCAA investigators alleged Ken Caldwell, a former Chicago club basketball coach, was affiliated with a professional sports agent and helped steer recruits to UCF.
The Knights self imposed a long list of sanctions, including vacating wins by the basketball program and reducing scholarships after it completed an investigation concurrent with the NCAA's review.
UCF appeared before the Committee on Infractions in April to discuss the case. Greg Sankey, associate commissioner of the Southeastern Conference and a committee member, will hold a teleconference Tuesday at 11 a.m. to discuss the NCAA's decision.
