Reporter compares it to Shepard's suspension a while back... Miles agrees.

HAHA

I dont really care because the NCAA is a bunch of bs anyway. Soon they will not be governing college football.

But yeah it seems silly that shep got 4 games for talking about an investigation that led to nothing.

I'm surprised he was given any suspension at all, with no proof that he received money. We all know that he did. But still, no proof. The NCAA would have had to get a fake undercover "broker" to conduct a transaction to prove something like that.

Why would he sit there and sign picture after picture and not once think about getting money for it? It's almost an insult to everybody's intelligence to try to get us to be on board with that idea.

Until the NCAA steps in on all situations(including those who get arrested or break laws)and it doesn't matter who the player is,big star or an unknown,the coaches/schools are going to do what they want as far as dealing out punishment,we really have no say so.I don't know if anyone has noticed but over the past 8-10 years the rate of NCAA athletes getting in trouble with the law (and otherwise) has increased (you would have to be blind to not notice)Why even worry about something we have zero control over? Seems the current popular attitude is win at all cost,do what we need to do to get that W or keep winning,nothing else matters.

He'll get this short suspension and once he leaves the NCAA will look into it more and take away scholarships from TAM. how it always works. I dont really care its just a really messed up system the NCAA has right now.But half a game suspension is just a joke.
