In ku's 1988 probation

the NCAA directly speaks to their inability to make attempts to curtail cheating or even recognize that blatent violations should be considered a problem:

"the university's disturbing failure to exercise appropriate institutional control over the men's intercollegiate basketball program. The university appeared before the committee in 1983 in connection with violations and has had subsequent communications with the committee regarding the university's athletics administration. Although the university argued that it adopted procedures to ensure that all of its athletics programs comply with the terms of NCAA legislation, the violations found in this case indicate that these procedures were not implemented in the men's basketball program in a manner that accomplished this result."

"The committee also was troubled by statements by the university in its official response to the NCAA's letter of official inquiry and during the hearing before the committee that clear and admitted violations of NCAA regulations somehow should not be considered violations. Such statements diminished the committee's sense of confidence that the university was prepared to take institutional action to discipline individuals for whom it was responsible and who were involved in NCAA violations."
