NCAA places Miss. State on 3 years probation
12:45 PM CT

Mississippi State's football and men's basketball teams have been placed on three years probation after an investigation concluded that a tutor committed academic misconduct in aiding 10 members of the football team and one basketball player in an online general chemistry course during the fall semester of the 2018-19 school year.
The NCAA and Mississippi State found that the part-time tutor, a student who has been disassociated from the university and been given a 10-year show-cause order, had "completed multiple assignments, exams and, in some instances, nearly the entire course for student-athletes."
Both the football and men's basketball team will vacate wins as part of the negotiated resolution agreement with the NCAA, but there are no postseason bans for either program.
According to the negotiated resolution's findings, the tutor completed coursework for the basketball players and football players in exchange for cash payments, which ranged from $60 to $350. The tutor refused an interview request from the enforcement staff.
Among the mitigating factors cited was the university's prompt "self-detection and self-disclosure of the violations."

Mississippi State president Mark Keenum said in a statement that "our commitment to operating a competitive athletic program within NCAA guidelines is unwavering."
"Our staff at Mississippi State was proactive in our preventative measures, quick to respond, and worked in full cooperation with the NCAA enforcement staff," said Mississippi State director of athletics John Cohen. "With all of the compliance training that our staff and student-athletes go through on a year-round basis, it is unfortunate that a student serving as a part-time tutor was able to lead our student-athletes astray. Nevertheless, we take full responsibility for these actions. Mississippi State will work diligently to continue a culture of compliance and continue to take proactive measures moving forward."

Mr. Dookmarriot, did a tutor complete this assignment for you?

Buzz has the correct title. How fitting that State gets zapped for the evergoing improprieties at Turdtown.
