NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — University President David Boren has sent a letter to the NCAA stating that Oklahoma’s athletic department conforms to the agency’s rules, despite an investigation into potential violations by the men’s basketball program.
Boren sent the letter to the NCAA’s James Elworth last week as Oklahoma’s probation for major rules violations by the football and men’s basketball programs was set to expire. It was obtained by The Associated Press on Tuesday through an open records request.
Boren stated that Oklahoma’s “athletic policies and practices conform to all the requirements of NCAA regulations as required at the conclusion of our probationary period.”
Oklahoma’s probation was due to end May 23, but the university and the NCAA are investigating whether the basketball team broke any rules before then.
