what about those on academic scholarships
Now Choctaw, you know this is completely different. Your everyday student on academic scholarship does not represent the University in the national media everyday. For this to result in suspension, this was not their first offense. I'm all for giving everyone a second chance, but a third is pushing it. What they did wasn't huge, but it WAS illegal and warrants discipline. 1 game is fair, even 2 could be understood, but I'm not on the kick them off the team side yet. Now that might change if they fail another one.

I'm wondering how many of you people throwing the suspended players under the bus would still be doing so if this "rumor" of failed drug tests had not been leaked.
Say all you know is "disciplinary" issue is the reason they are suspended...you still willing to crucify these players then??
I doubt it.

Actually there is a code of conduct that academic scholarships have, violate it and they lose their scholarship. Just like athletes....sorry to burst your indignation bubble.
The individual signs the agreement agreeing to abide by the rules set forth, and in exchange they are given a scholarship. You violate, you lose.

yes...but the OP wants them kicked off the team. 1 game is enough....some coaches wouldn't even do that.
