Oklahoma running backs coach DeMarco Murray will serve a one-game suspension following NCAA violations related to improper contact with recruits, impacting the football program's integrity.
The NCAA concluded that Murray made 65 impermissible phone calls and 36 texts to 17 recruits over 16 months, violating recruiting rules that had been properly communicated.
In addition to Murray's violations, track and field head coach Tim Langford faced sanctions for instructing an athlete to redistribute scholarship funds, reflecting broader governance issues within the programs.
Oklahoma will incur a $5,000 fine, one year of probation, and a three-week ban on recruiting communications, along with self-imposed penalties on recruiting days.
