The University of Miami won’t allow its football team to play in a bowl game this season because of a National Collegiate Athletic Association investigation.
The NCAA inquiry began after former Miami booster Nevin Shapiro told prosecutors he provided cash and benefits to at least 72 athletes from 2002 through 2010, according to Yahoo! Sports. The NCAA on Aug. 30 ordered eight Miami players to miss games and repay benefits from Shapiro.
