| 2010-08-01 | The_Criminal | ACC | Nuisance | Crime Link | 6 | Hurricanes dismiss DE Steven Wesley
Posted by John Taylor on July 31, 2010 4:33 PM ET Unfortunately for Miami, they have (voluntarily) lost some experienced depth this afternoon. Fortunately for the Hurricanes, they lost it at arguably the deepest position on their roster. Citing a source close to the situation, the Miami Herald is reporting that defensive end Steven Wesley has been dismissed from the football program. No specific reason was given for the senior's dismissal, and a source would not confirm or deny that it was related to academics. Wesley started six games in 2009 and played in a total of eleven. During his career with the Hurricanes, Wesley played in a total of 33 games. While Allen Bailey and Adewale Ojomo will enter summer camp as the starters, Wesley was expected to once again be a part of their line rotation. |

--- NCAA sanctions Missouri Western women’s hoops By HEATHER HOLLINGSWORTH, Associated Press Writer Jul 8, 6:18 pm EDT KANSAS CITY, Mo.

Besides the ineligible athlete, whose play was deemed a major violation, the NCAA also found that a former student-athlete received extra benefits from a former coach, a secondary infraction. The school, in St. Joseph, also lost a scholarship to offer and was barred from recruiting abroad for approximately the next year. The probation expires in July 2011. |

| 2008-07-01 | Trailer_Trash | Ducks | Nuisance | Crime Link | 1 | The NHL indefinitely suspended Anaheim Ducks owner Henry Samueli on Tuesday following the billionaire philanthropist's guilty plea to a felony count of lying to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Commissioner Gary Bettman said the NHL will review Samueli's status after he is sentenced on Aug. 18 and determine the length of his suspension. Samueli, the co-founder of the chipmaker Broadcom Corp., entered the guilty plea in U.S. District Court in Santa Ana on Monday after a federal probe into illegal stock option backdating at Broadcom. Federal prosecutors have recommended a sentence of five years' probation and a $12.2 million fine. During his suspension, Samueli can't be involved in Ducks matters or activities. Chief executive officer Michael Schulman will be responsible for the club's day-to-day operations. "I respect the decision made by Commissioner Bettman and will abide by the terms of the suspension," Samueli said in a statement released by the Ducks. "I'm confident the team will be in great hands in my absence." Samueli's wife, Susan, said she would also relinquish her role as co-owner to "avoid any improper appearance." "Although we will not be involved in decision-making, we will be cheering on our Ducks as loudly as ever," she said in the statement. Schulman said the team supported Samueli, 53, and expected to compete for another Stanley Cup championship this season. The Ducks became the first California-based club to win the Stanley Cup in 2007 and have qualified for the playoffs in three consecutive seasons. Broadcom's other co-founder, Henry T. Nicholas III, is awaiting trial on multiple counts of conspiracy, securities fraud and other charges related to the alleged backdating scheme. The company agreed in April to pay $12 million to the Securities and Exchange Commission to settle allegations of stock option backdating without admitting any wrongdoing. |
