SHORT TAKES : Misuse of Phone Credit Card Probed, Notre Dame Tells NCAA
Notre Dame officials have informed the NCAA of a university investigation of possible misuse of a telephone credit card number by members of the football team, according to a newspaper report Wednesday.
The telephone charges reached thousands of dollars and could involve several players, the South Bend Tribune reported.
Coach Lou Holtz refused to comment but hinted several players may be disciplined for reasons he declined to explain.
“We never discuss disciplinary matters within the university,” he said. “When we practice, a certain number of individuals will be confined to study hall.”
Athletic Director Richard Rosenthal was out of town and could not be reached for comment.
