Transcript | Cougars Escape Death Jack's back, I mean John. As in John Jenkins. Just when the cougar faithful thought that Jenkins1 association with the football team was final, we saw that he was still involved. The NCAA Committee on Infractions found, after an 18 month investigation, that the football program did not commit any violation. Extra-benefits violations surfaced upon allegations that former running back Ostell Miles received furniture from the UH football program during theSpringof 1993, while John Jenkins was still in charge of the ship. On the flip side, the NCAA did decide that this was a minor infractions. Unlike the programs last probation, the team will not be blacked out from television exposure or banned from any bowl appearances, should that ever be a concern. The penalties that will be assessed have been self-imposed by the university and approved by the NCAA. These penalties include: a reduction of scholarships from 25 to 24 during the 1994-95 and 1995-96 school years; reducing the number of weekly practice hours from 20 to 18 during the 1995 season ; eliminating all required out-of-season conditioning activities during the February 1995; and reducing the number of practice sessions during the 1995 Spring training period from 15 to 12. -Cesar Alvarez Top photo this page: Football head coach Helton and Athletics Director Bill Carr held a press conference to discuss the NCAA Committee on Infractions' decision.
