The punishment will not include any loss of scholarships, reductions in postseason play or television appearances.

3 Years probation isn't really a punishment at all. They lose NOTHING! It's more like a mulligan than a punishment.

It means the actual violation was minor, but now they are on probation. At this point, there are no more minor violations for 3 years. NCAA rules are quite complex and it's very easy to commit a minor in fraction - now they have no "wiggle room."

Well the dribbler off the tee on the first hole was a minor infraction - so I don't have to count the stroke. Hit again and take the mulligan.
