The NCAA found that Coach Antonio Pierce was the ringleader behind a scheme that involved impermissible recruiting and violations during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The report indicated that Pierce instilled fear in staff members, pressuring them into participating in violations with the threat of job loss.
Pierce obstructed the investigation by providing misleading information and failing to present his financial records, suggesting he believed he could evade punishment.
The implications of his show-cause order mean that if Pierce takes any NCAA coaching job, he will face a suspension and severe restrictions.
