Michigan Admits Violations.

Michigan admitted to a series of violations in its football program but also said it did not think that the problems related to practice time and coaching activities warranted major punishment from the N.C.A.A., which will hold a hearing on the case in August. A final decision on penalties could take months. The violations came to light last fall when players told The Detroit Free Press they were exceeding N.C.A.A. limits on practice and training time.
