Looks like all those 2011 NCAA accusations might be coming back to bite the Golden Lions.
Wide-spread certification issues dating back nearly a decade have the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff in big trouble with the NCAA. The NCAA released its infraction report on Tuesday, stemming from certification issues that were originally discovered in 2011.
Specifically, over five academic years, the institution erroneously certified 124 student-athletes for competition when it failed to apply NCAA Bylaw 14 progress-toward-degree, degree credit hours, nonqualifier status and two-year transfer requirements.
The violations could also strip UAPB of its 2010 men's basketball title.

C'mon UAPB..do better.
