 Head football coach Galen Hall was accused of committing minor rules violations, which became a major issue with the NCAA because of the just-completed probation.Though Hall denied the allegations, he was forced to resign in the middle of the 1989 season, and the football program was placed back on NCAA probation the following year.At about the same time, the NCAA was investigating allegations that the Florida Gators men's basketball program had allowed sports agents to pay star plays.
