College football

The Associated Press reported that Kansas State has discovered possible rules violation. K-State is cooperating with an NCAA investigation into its football program. The reported violations centered on a former university employee, three former football players and two current members of the team.

KSU Athletic director Tim Weiser said in a conference call with reporters that the athletic department started investigating allegations of extra benefits and academic misconduct after they surfaced in March. He said the former employee understood the rules and deliberately broke them. Weiser said the school won’t tolerate violations of NCAA rules.
