NCAA Inquiry Is Embarrassing--to Its Director
NCAA Executive Director Dick Schultz, who could come under investigation by his own organization, said he was “embarrassed” that rules violations may have occurred while he was athletic director at the University of Virginia.
Virginia is investigating whether its athletic fund-raising arm illegally made loans to student-athletes from 1982-90. Schultz was athletic director there from 1981-87.
“I guess the only thing I want clearly understood is that I had absolutely no knowledge of any major NCAA rules violations while I was there,” Schultz said in San Diego during a meeting of the National Assn. of Collegiate Directors of Athletics.
