The Ohio State Buckeyes learned their NCAA fate Tuesday afternoon as the NCAA Committee on Infractions hit the Buckeyes with a one-year bowl ban and other penalties for a scandal that involved eight players taking a total of $14,000 in cash and tattoos in exchange for jerseys, rings and other Buckeyes memorabilia.

Jim Tressel, who was forced out of his head coaching job in wake of the scandal, was hit with a five-year “show-cause” order which all prevents him from being a college coach during that time.

Tressel is now on the staff of the Indianapolis Colts as a video-review coordinator.

The university had previously offered to vacate the 2010 season, return bowl money, go on two years of NCAA probation and use five fewer football scholarships over the next three years, but the NCAA countered with a bowl ban in Meyer's first year as head coach in 2012, further reduced the number of scholarships and tacked on a year of probation.
