Sooner probation hits football and basketball programs
The Big Eight imposed a two year probation on Oklahoma for recruiting violations, barring them from post season football and television games, and applying a similar probation to basketball without sanctions. Two assistant coaches were barred from recruiting for one year, while quarterback Kerry Jackson’s transcript irregularities led to four forfeited conference games, handing the league title to Nebraska. Oklahoma officials called the action severe and pledged reforms.
