The Wall Street Journal released a lengthy story Wednesday that indicates the following:
**A source told the paper that NCAA investigators have found violations at the school
**An NCAA report will be issued “in the near future”
**Head coach Jim Calhoun has yet to sign his contract extension
A year ago, Yahoo! Sports chronicled NCAA violations which occurred during UConn’s pursuit of recruit Nate Miles.
The Tampa Tribune later reported that Josh Nochimson, a former UConn student manager who became a sports agent, paid several thousand dollars for Miles to have surgery in December 2007.
“Could I have made a mistake? Sure.” Calhoun told Yahoo! Sports during the 2009 NCAA tournament. “The [rules] manual is 508 pages. Someone could’ve made a mistake.”
