Back in March, the NCAA dealt the Syracuse basketball program, and head coach Jim Boeheim, with a harsh group of penalties for violations that go back as long as ten years ago. Both the university and Boeheim filed their own individual appeals to cut down on some of the penalties, which are some of the most draconian that the NCAA has issued as NCAA Basketball odds fans might have learned about.

Today, the NCAA ruled on some of the appeal. The Orange get back one of their scholarships (they had lost three per season for four seasons) per year, so now they lose two. They also had to vacate 101 wins. The NCAA has not yet ruled on Boeheim’s nine-game suspension.
