The NCAA announced Thursday that Ferris State coach Tony Annese has been suspended for one game. However, this isn't any ordinary suspension as Annese will have to serve the one-game ban during his team's next NCAA championship playoff game, whenever that may be.

The suspension stems from two Ferris State players lighting cigars in the locker room following Ferris State's Division II national title win last season.


quote:

Players are normally permitted to smoke cigars in the locker room following games, but the Division II Championship Game was being hosted at McKinney ISD Stadium in Texas. Like many high schools throughout the nation, the school has a strict no tobacco policy on campus.


quote:

In addition to Annese being suspended for the next postseason game that he'd be eligible to coach in, the NCAA also announced that Ferris State had to pay restitution to the McKinney Independent School District in the amount of $15,383 for cleaning and repair expenses as a result of the cigar smoking. The school was also fined $2,500.



This was less two months after A&M players were smoking pot in the locker room

If only everyone had a mask on it would have prevented smoke from getting through.

I can understand paying the school some payola but just have his team do that quietly without the press release But suspending the coach for a future game is just stupid. Cucks hate when players celebrate anything these days, they all grew up in the “everyone gets a trophy era” and hate success and celebrations

If they wanted to fine the program to deal with cleaning fees..whatever, but suspensions are absolutely ridiculous.

To be fair Ed Orgeron hasn't coached in a post season game since Joe Burrow smoke a cigar in the Dome.

But remember boys and girls, filing a lawsuit so you can knowingly playing an ineligible player like memphis basketball just gets you a warning.

Just open the doors and air it out a week and bring in somebody who doesn't know the story and see if they smell anything.

I could have given them that hint for a Chik Fil A with a peach milkshake (in season)

How in the hell did a stupid school district property rule violation become a NCAA violation?

And what exactly does this have to do with Texas A&M? This isn't the SEC Rant and you're not Sidewalk Tiger.

I thought Texas was supposed to be tough. At least they talk enough shite about it but a little Cigar smoke has them fainting? This is weak as hell.
