NCAA Investigation Of Miami Started Five Months Ago

The NCAA said Wednesday it has been investigating the relationship between a convicted Ponzi scheme artist and the University of Miami for five months, and the allegations -- if true -- show the need for "serious and fundamental change" in college sports. "We were well aware of it and weren't surprised by the sensational media coverage. We've been on top of it for a while, gathering information and collecting data," Mark Emmert said earlier Wednesday in an interview with ESPN Radio's "Mike and Mike in the Morning." Emmert said that typical investigations take six to seven months to complete. Former booster Nevin Shapiro, now serving 20 years in federal prison, claims he treated players with sex parties, nightclub outings, cars and other gifts. Shapiro told Yahoo! Sports he provided improper benefits to 72 football players and other athletes at Miami from 2002 to 2010. The Hurricanes' entire football team took the practice field Wednesday, even though Shapiro's claims involve several current players.
