Fresno State has received an official letter of inquiry from the NCAA about possible rules violations in its athletic program that occurred from 1995-2002.

Kansas University athletic director Al Bohl was Fresno State’s AD from 1996-2001.

“I’m familiar with it,” Bohl said Monday about the ongoing investigation at FSU. “We self-reported the violations. The university was cooperating. That was the status when I left.”

The official letter is the latest phase in a nearly two-year NCAA review that centers on the receipt of free meals at a Fresno fast-food restaurant, and alleged benefits provided by a sports agent. It also includes a violation regarding the eligibility of a men’s basketball player and the receipt of impermissible aid by a men’s soccer player. In addition, the review involves a women’s basketball prospect.

“Fresno State has been fully cooperative with the NCAA in their review of these items over the years, and we will continue to work together with the NCAA on any unresolved issues,” Fresno State president John D. Welty said in a statement issued Monday.

Fresno State has worked with the NCAA during a 22-month period to review the initial allegations. The official letter of inquiry requires a response by Oct. 1. The NCAA is expected to announce resolution of the case early next year.

Bohl said he didn’t expect to be interviewed by the NCAA about any of the allegations, but said he “would help in any way he possibly could.”

The inquiry has nothing to do with revelations last spring that Fresno State’s athletic department made improper transfers of budget funds while Bohl was in charge of the program.

Bohl denied any wrong-doing, saying he was confident he followed proper procedures. However, the school’s business manager, Les Snyder, resigned under pressure, saying what he did was wrong and that “somebody had to take the fall.”

In June, FSU president Welty issued a statement saying he and Bohl had agreed on a resolution, but neither he nor Bohl would say if it involved the return of bonus money Bohl had earned for balancing the budget.

A few days later, KU Chancellor Robert Hemenway issued a statement of support for Bohl.

“Al wants to get on with his work here, and that’s what we want,” Hemenway said. “I am pleased with the enthusiasm, energy and leadership he has shown, and I’m confident he will continue to do a good job for us.”

Bohl officially took over at KU a year ago Thursday.
