02:56 PM ET 10.26 | A new four-tiered penalty structure for NCAA violations is expected to be adopted by the Division I Board of Directors on Tuesday that will place more accountability on the head coaches of programs. Most notably, any violations committed by assistant coaches ??? academic, recruiting or otherwise ??? will fall to the program's head coaches, according to a USA Today report. The NCAA will no longer accept the claim of ignorance, unless that coach is promoting a culture of compliance in their program and staff.

According to the report, the document submitted for approval alludes to compliance cases that have been heard in recent years, including former Connecticut Huskies coach Jim Calhoun's recruitment of Nate Miles.

Four-tiered. Sounds like the cakes at Cafe Intermezzo.
