I agree the punishments were excessive for what was found. I agree that if they went to any other campus they would've found something similar and we were singled out. Having said that, they came to our campus and our coaching staff is the one who had guys emailing from our players student email accounts, sketchy academic practices and ignoring failed drug tests. Which I don't even know why he had an optional drug policy in place if we had no intentions to follow it.

As for the other piece, it isn't that rare or vengeful for someone to think when a guy is the head of a program that he should be held responsible when his direct reports break rules by the governing body of their field. Even though the drug testing stuff doesn't really fall into this bucket. Not many coaches survive one bout with the NCAA like we had let alone two of them.

For better or worse, JB runs the university and this weekend is just the latest piece of evidence. I don't know how that's a controversial statement or one that can even be argued against.
