The NCAA reprimanded a UCLA assistant coach on Friday for violating ethical conduct rules during the training of two prospects.

While the organization didn't mention the name of the violator, multiple outlets, including Bruce Feldman of Fox Sports, confirmed it was offensive line coach Adrian Klemm.

The two-year show-cause penalty will last though Sept. 15, 2018, and will apply if he seeks employment at another NCAA school during that time. If he were to take a new job, that school would have to appear before the Committee on Infractions.

UCLA was also fined $5,000 for the infraction.

Klemm admitted to paying for housing and private training sessions on behalf of two prospects, unaware at the time that the move violated NCAA regulations.

The NCAA also accepted multiple penalties self-imposed by UCLA in the matter, including a reduction of one full-time football coach during the spring recruiting period, spring practice period, and the first two games of this season.
