First mention I’ve seen of it.
Was the first I had heard that too, so I started Googling. Apparently the announcement was made at the end of August. "The Division I Board of Directors has adopted three major proposals that modify infractions procedures intended to modernize and enhance the process while focusing national office and membership resources on the most serious violations."
Eliminating the IARP
The board also voted to discontinue the Independent Accountability Resolution Process, which was created in 2019 at the recommendation of the Commission on College Basketball.
The board in January placed a temporary moratorium on accepting additional cases into the IARP, at the request of the Independent Accountability Oversight Committee and the Infractions Process Committee. The number of cases referred to the independent process was greater than initially anticipated, which has prolonged case timelines and required significant resources to bring those cases to resolution.
During that time, the Transformation Committee charged the IPC with considering overall changes to the infractions process. The IPC determined that discontinuing the independent process — when combined with the proposals to modernize the peer-review process — would streamline the overall infractions process and make better use of membership and national office resources.
The IARP will be dissolved after the five remaining cases in that process are adjudicated.
