McCaffery says episode involving movie stars was overblown

November 3, 2010 By Todd Kimm

Iowa basketball coach Fran McCaffery says self reported NCAA violations involving movie stars Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore have been “blown out of proportion”. The couple was at an Iowa football game in September and met two basketball recruits at halftime.

“And I’ll be honest with you, I feel bad for them,” McCaffery says, “because they could not have been more delightful.” McCaffery says the incident occurred while Kutcher and Moore were in the Kinnick Stadium press box. He says they could not have been nicer to anyone who came in to meet them.

McCaffery says he doesn’t want anyone to think anything negative about the stars or the players as he says the meeting was “as innocent and unprepared as it could possibly be.”

The NCAA informed the school this week it will not face any penalties.
