ANN ARBOR, Mich. - The NCAA is accusing Michigan of five potentially major rules violations under coach Rich Rodriguez, who admitted making "mistakes" but will be back for a third season.
Incoming athletic director David Brandon disclosed the NCAA conclusions Tuesday but said there were no surprises in the report. He expressed full support for his coach, who is 8-16 in two seasons.
In its notice of allegations, the NCAA said Rodriguez "failed to promote an atmosphere of compliance within the football program" and tracked neither what his staff was doing nor whether his players were following NCAA rules, particularly those limiting the time spent on practice and football-related activities.
