Update (3:59 p.m.): Oh boy.
The details are coming now. Flood not only emailed the professor, but had an in-person meeting -- and this was after he was told not to.

Good grief. Flood even "provided grammatical and minor editorial suggestions" to a paper in hopes of getting Nadir Barnwell eligible.

What do y'all suppose the return policy on a Rutgers? Asking for an academically prestigious/athletically tepid football conference.
From NJ.com:
PISCATAWAY — Kyle Flood has been suspended three games as Rutgers football coach and fined $50,000 following a university-led investigation into rules violations and amid a recent string of off-field transgressions involving players on his team.
The decision comes three days before the Scarlet Knights are set to play Penn Statefor their Big Ten opener this Saturday and three weeks after NJ Advance Media first reported that the university's office of ethics and compliance, with help from outside counsel, was investigating an email Flood sent from a personal account to a Mason Gross faculty member regarding the status of Nadir Barnwell, a junior cornerback whose academic eligibility had been in doubt since May.
Penn State is favored by seven points over Rutgers. That contest is going to be so, so dang B1G.
