Report: Academic fraud was common at Oklahoma St over past decade

STILLWATER, Okla. – Sports Illustrated is reporting that more than a dozen Oklahoma State football players admitted to academic misconduct over the past decade.

The magazine says the players described receiving exam answers in advance, passing classes for little or no work and using tutors who completed work for them.

The article was the second of five planned by Sports Illustrated looking at alleged misconduct in the Oklahoma State football program dating to 2001 under coaches Les Miles and Mike Gundy.

Oklahoma State said it has notified the NCAA about the allegations and launched its own investigation.
