06/25/2010 - Indianapolis, IN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - An NCAA appeals committee has upheld the sanctions levied by the governing body against former Southeast Missouri men's basketball coach Scott Edgar.
The NCAA penalized Southeast Missouri's men's and women's basketball programs for violations in August 2009. The issues surrounded extra benefits to players and unethical conduct by Edgar, who was first placed on leave by the school when a notice of allegations was first sent and then fired soon after.
Penalties included three years of probation and a vacations of records from 2006-08. Edgar was also given a show-cause order that restricted his ability to land a coaching position at another NCAA institution.
Edgar appealed his penalty, but the NCAA Division I Infractions Appeals Committee rejected his assertions.
"The findings are not clearly contrary to the evidence presented, there was no procedural error which resulted in the findings, and the facts found by the Committee on Infractions do constitute a violation of NCAA rules," the NCAA stated on Friday.
Edgar was hired in May as the basketball coach at Eastern Oklahoma State College -- a junior college.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
