Overview
- The Committee on Infractions issued two-year show-cause orders for Jim McElwain, Mike McGee and Nate Mason, and a four-year show-cause for Jake Kostner.
- Central Michigan was fined $30,000 plus 1% of its football budget and placed on two years of probation.
- The NCAA applied head-coach responsibility to McElwain despite determining he may have been unaware of the scheme.
- Kostner received the stiffest terms, including a first-year ban from all athletic activities and a second-year suspension for 50% of regular-season games.
- McElwain retired after the 2024 season, so any return to an NCAA program would require serving the imposed restrictions.
