CORAL GABLES, Fla. -- Miami finally received its notice of allegations from the NCAA, which accused the school of having a "lack of institutional control" for not monitoring the conduct of a booster who provided thousands of dollars in cash, gifts and other items to football and men's basketball players.

The allegations arrived on Tuesday. The institutional-control charge is typically one of the most severe the NCAA can bring after an investigation of rules violations.

The NCAA declined comment Tuesday night, a day after revealing that it was erasing some elements of its case against Miami because the information was obtained in impermissible ways.

"We deeply regret any violations, but we have suffered enough," Miami president Donna Shalala said in a statement announcing the university had received notice from the NCAA.

A person familiar with the situation told The Associated Press about the lack of institutional control charge and that several former members of Miami coaching staffs are named in the notice of allegations, including Missouri basketball coach Frank Haith, who was with the Hurricanes from 2004-11.

"I did get a notice of allegation," Haith said after Missouri beat Florida on Tuesday night. "Contrary to what was reported (weeks ago), there was no unethical conduct in my notice of allegation. And it is just an allegation, so we get a chance to defend ourselves. My

attorney's here and he's going to forward that to (athletic

director) Mike (Alden) and his staff here tomorrow, but the biggest

thing I ought to tell you: I'm glad this thing is almost over

with."

Alden told ESPN.com a few weeks ago that he supported Haith, and he reiterated that to local reporters after Tuesday's game.

Said Alden to reporters after the game: "Let's go ahead and deal with it and move forward. I'm looking forward to working with Frank for a long time."

Next up: The sanctions phase, in which Miami's penalties will be decided. The Hurricanes have already self-imposed several sanctions, including sitting out two bowl games and a conference football championship game. Shalala said on Monday that she believes those punishments should be enough.

This saga started in September 2010, when the university told the NCAA that convicted Ponzi scheme architect and former Miami booster Nevin Shapiro made allegations to the school against former players. Shapiro said he interacted mostly with football players and recruits, as well as a significantly smaller number of men's basketball players.

Shapiro is serving a 20-year prison term for masterminding a $930 million fraud scheme.

"Many of the charges brought forth are based on the word of a man who made a fortune by lying," Shalala wrote. "The NCAA enforcement staff acknowledged to the University that if Nevin Shapiro, a convicted con man, said something more than once, it considered the allegation 'corroborated' -- an argument which is both ludicrous and counter to legal practice"

Miami wants to get through the sanctions portion of the process as quickly as possible. But typically, it takes about three months for a hearing, and then can take several weeks -- if not months more -- for the penalties to be handed down. The sides coming to a settlement beforehand is another possibility.

Shalala said Miami will work diligently to prepare a response to the allegations within 90 days.

"We trust that the Committee on Infractions will provide the fairness and integrity missing during the investigative process," Shalala wrote.
