The University of Missouri athletic department announced on Tuesday that it was investigating allegations involving a former tutor for the department and was cooperating with the NCAA.

Later on Tuesday night, the extent of the wrongdoing was revealed when the former tutor took to social media to explain herself.

According to The Kansas City Star, former tutor Yolanda Kumar admitted that she had completed entire courses, among other things, for Missouri athletes:

“I have knowingly participated in academic dishonesty in my position as a tutor at the University of Missouri-Columbia Intercollegiate Athletic department, which is not limited to assistance with assignments. I have taken and assisted with entrance assessment, completed entire courses, and I been present to provide assistance with online assessments. It was encouraged, promoted, and supported by at least two Academic Coordinators for athletes in revenue generating sports, however, the wide spread desperation to succeed by other student-athletes at the bottom of an inverted pyramid of the organization’s construct cross (sic) multiple sports. I self-reported on November 2 and naively wanted to close the door on the manner after seeking counsel. I immediately resigned from my position on November 7 prior to meeting with a member for compliance, general counsel, and an individual that reports to the chancellor.

“You are able to see this post because I respect and honor your thoughts of me. I wanted you to hear it from me first. I apologize for disappointing you.

“I just can’t carry this burden anymore.”

Kumar’s admissions are not good for the school. The last thing the Tigers need at the moment is an academic fraud scandal.

It’s still not clear whether the football team was involved, but the entire Mizzou athletic department could be in for a long investigation if Kumar’s admissions are true.
