Another tough blow for SBC -- FIU on probation until 2012
It has been a tough week for the Sun Belt with the release of the NCAA's Academic Progress Report that ended up costing several programs scholarships. UNT lost five in football and one in men's basketball, Florida Atlantic and Florida International lost three each in football, while FIU and South Alabama lost one each in men's basketball.
As if that wasn't tough enough on the league, the NCAA came down like a ton of bricks on FIU today, putting the school on probation for four years for rules violations. FIU will now be on probation until May 19, 2012.
