Boeheim suspended 9 ACC games for next year and has 108 victories vacated
5 year probation
Syracuse must also pay back all of their NCAA tourney revenue form 2011-2013
$500 fine for every game that ineligible SA's participated going back to 2002.
Loss of 3 scholarships per year for each of the next 4 seasons (2015-16 through 2018-19), but the school has already maxed out the 13 for next season, so they may have to push that off a year and go from 2016-17 through 2019-20).


Good. Finally a major program gets punished for this stuff.
