“We are deeply disappointing in this determination, particularly because the sanctions imposed harm our students who were in no way involved in any wrongdoing…” the statement said. “Moving forward, we are fully committed to ensuring that appropriate corrective measures are taken to avoid any further adverse impact on our football program.”
