NCAA hands UCF 1-year bowl ban

[cpawstoney]

Central Florida received a one-year bowl ban and a one-year men's basketball tournament ban from the NCAA because of recruiting violations in the two programs, the NCAA's committee on infractions announced Tuesday.

The Knights were a projected favorite to win the C-USA East Division but now aren't eligible for the C-USA championship game. Seniors on the football team would also be able to leave immediately and transfer without having to sit out a year because of a longstanding NCAA rule.

UCF will join the Big East in 2013.
