The NCAA will announce the findings of an investigation of the USC athletic department at a news conference at noon today.

The probe dealt with a departmentwide matter that was not limited to one sport, sources said.

The athletic department referred all questions to university officials, who were not available for comment.

The announcement will come from the NCAA’s Division I Committee on Infractions, which has been dealing with USC in this matter.
