This will either be swept under the rug or become a much bigger deal by this time tomorrow. This has a flow chart and a team you like/dislike is mentioned. @UCFhonors will enjoy that right in the first paragraph.
The NCAA notoriously metes out punishments to student athletes for bad grades, smoking marijuana or accepting money and free meals. But nowhere in its 440-page Division I rulebook does it cite penalties for sexual, violent or criminal misconduct. And unlike the pro leagues, the NCAA has no personal conduct policy and no specific penalties for those who commit sexual assault.
The NCAA’s highest governance body, a group of university presidents, chancellors and athletic directors known as the Board of Governors, is well aware of the issue. But it has resisted calls by eight U.S. senators and its own study commission to fix it.
The NCAA declined to comment for this story.
