Sadly, we base this level of thinking on what is going on inside our country with claims and counterclaims and the media. On face value this appears to be a punishment entirely out of sync with the
level of known transgressions.
We have read and heard (based upon recorded phone conversations) significant issues with paying certain athletes attending high level BB programs. A direct knowledge of events yet no known punishments after 2 years of "investigation" (?). Seems out of sync with what has happened to
UMass ...
