Is he suspended with or without pay?

I mean what message are they sending with a one-half suspension? It's utterly ridiculous

If you feel you are warranted to suspend the kid, then give him something real. If you have nothing on him, then leave it alone.

This is like a one foot in, one foot out sort of response from the NCAA. Almost as if they felt pressure to do SOMETHING

Oh, and I guess ESPN gets another feather in the hat for this one too?

Not suspending him would be less embarrassing for the NCAA

that they can prove he violated a small rule but not a big rule? i agree it comes off a bit silly but the rules are on the books and he did clearly violate the lesser even if they cant prove the higher standard for a real punishment.

Guys I'm upset too. I paid full price for my student ticket and only see a half of Johnny Football. Not cool.

betting A&M second half of that game is probably a safe bet.

What happens when JFF goes pro after this year and he cashes in on all of those autographs?

How does the NCAA gonna deal with delayed payment?

The Penn State boards must be very amusing right now. Those tin foil hat wearing retards are probably ready to explode at any moment.

Devier Posey was overpaid $728 for a summer job and got suspended for 5 games.

NCAA justice.
