Quote:Oh sure you can drink and drive or do ILLEGAL drugs and get a game or two but take an otc supplement and we're gonna suspend you for a calendar year. The rest of the year I absolutely agree with but 6 games next year, too? That's not how you teach a kid a lesson. If the university had lied or he had lied I could understand but they were all forthcoming and owned up to it. I'm truly disgusted by the NCAA

I honestly don't think any logical person wants the NCAA to monitor and get involved in ALL player activities. Their job is not to get involved in all non-competition issues. I don't think anyone would want the NCAA to get involved either. Universities are more equipped to mete out punishment, the NCAA doesn't have the manpower to oversee every aspects of student-athletes, and so on.


A DUI does not fall under the scope of college football's regulator. Will Grier cheated; his cheating affected the equity of the game; and cheating falls under the NCAA's authority. The two are not even closely comparable.
