According to multiple outlets, the NCAA has denied the University of Missouri’s appeal for sanctions leveled against three programs.

For the football program, with a win Friday against Arkansas, it will mean despite a 6-6 finish, the Tigers will not be eligible for a bowl game.  They will also miss out on shared revenue with the Southeastern Conference.  That is an estimated cost in the range of $8-9 million.  Mizzou also lost it’s appeal on scholarship reductions and recruiting restrictions.

Among the penalties originally handed down by the NCAA:

-5-percent reduction in scholarships for football, baseball and softball for 2019-20.
-Recruiting restrictions including a seven-week ban on unofficial visits, and a reduction of official visits, communications, off-campus recruiting contacts and evaluations
-$5,000 fine plus 1-percent reduction of football, baseball and softball budgets.
-Postseason bans for baseball and softball.
