The penalties increase for each occurrence of fake injuries, as determined by the National Coordinator for Football Officiating, Sankey wrote.

The head coach would receive a public reprimand and the school would be assessed a $50,000 penalty, and that number increases to $100,000 on the second instance. If it happens a third time, the head coach will face a suspension for the next game, as well any other staffers involved.
