Tide self-reported 19 secondary NCAA violations committed during the last year via a post to the school's athletics website on Sunday night.

QuoteAmong those was an incident that involved a trophy being temporarily placed in an area where prospective players would be taking official visits. Apparently, that qualifies as a violation by "impermissible recruiting decoration of an area."

Other reported football violations included free training from a former student-athlete, as well as impermissible communication between coaches and prospective student-athletes via phone conversations and text messages.

Aaron Suttles: The corrective action for the impermissible contact between members of the football staff and a prospective student-athlete called for the involved coach being prohibited from making recruiting calls for two weeks, no calls, recruiting materials, or electronic communication sent to the involved prospect for 30 days.
