COLUMBIA, S.C. (AP) — Clemson’s national championship football program has been flagged for eight NCAA infractions.
Clemson self-reported the violations and says none were considered major and all issues about the penalties have been resolved.
The football violations reported by the school included a homeowner paying a player above the going rate for work around the home on three separate occasions. Two violations involved players on social media in a promotional capacity.
The other five infractions were committed by football staffers and included reimbursing an athlete for ground transportation expenses above the school’s mileage rate.
