Surprised nobody commented on this. Kelvin Sampson screwed OU over by getting NCAA violations against them (for illegal phone contact with recruits) -- well, guess this goes to show, once a cheater and liar -- always a cheater and liar:

Indiana made a strong statement Sunday that it has enough tolerance for secondary NCAA violations under men's basketball coach Kelvin Sampson to ensure his job status, but it will make sure Sampson and any members of his staff pay for violations with their bank accounts and their ability to fully do their jobs.
Indiana announced Sampson broke his one-year penalty from May 24, 2006, to May 25, 2007, which was imposed for recruiting violations, by participating in a three-way recruiting call on 10 occasions. As a result:
• Sampson lost a $500,000 bonus for 2007-08.
• The team lost a scholarship for 2008-09, reducing the number of scholarships to 12.
• Assistant Rob Senderoff, who set up the three-way calls, will be banned for a year from recruiting off campus and making phone calls. He also will not receive a bonus and cannot receive a salary increase next year.
Indiana also announced Sunday that it sent a report to the NCAA enforcement staff about 35 phone calls made by assistant coaches that were in violation of the NCAA limits on how much a prospect could be contacted.
