For the first time in its storied history, the University of Alabama's football team will be put on NCAA probation. Three seasons after winning its sixth national championship, the team was given three years of sanctions for displaying "a distressing failure of institutional control" over players. Investigators said the university violated NCAA rules by not reporting that cornerback cornerback Antonio Langham had illegally signed a contract with an agent.
