It came off as if you were making a slight remark about OSU. Apologies if not.

Pryor and four teammates were suspended Thursday by the NCAA for the first five games of next season for selling championship rings, jerseys and awards.

The school ruled them ineligible. They did not suspend them.

There's a difference.

Okay... Perhaps I have some terminology wrong, but I believe the school ruled them ineligible first, and then the NCAA suspended them. Correct?

Yes, then applied for reinstatement. NCAA handed down punishment. Ruling them ineligible doesn't mean suspending them for 5 games.

I'll grant that it doesn't mean suspension (so I used the wrong term), but the fact that they deemed the players ineligible is practically the same thing. It's might not have been totally proactive, but it certainly was more proactive than reactive.

It's not proactive nor is it anywhere near the same as a suspension, it's procedure and nothing more. Ruling them ineligible and then applying for reinstatement is nothing more than asking the NCAA to hand down whatever punishment they want.

I think it comes down to this:

What group of 100 popular, enabled, 18-22 year olds in any aspect of life doesn't have some fraction breaking the rules/laws?

Rule breaking will always be an inherent part of college sports. I know I did a ton of illegal things in college, but I had way less to lose.

Doing something illegal, against the law - suspended 1 or 2 games.

Doing something legal (selling your own stuff) - suspended 5 games.

Sure, makes sense.
Reps.

1 or 2 games is what the OSU "bad boys" should have got for their pocket change violations. Instead Posey is sitting TEN games and Pryor was run out of school.

One or two games for flunking a drug test is barely a slap on the wrist, and considering it could not be ignored ( the coach had to do something) is no cause for "applauding" Miles on disciplining his players. Miles is only one step better than Brian Kelley at ND for suspending Michael Floyd for the "off season" for his 3rd DUI arrest. (then reinstates him in time for the season.). Yessir, we have some great disciplinarians in the college coaching ranks.

So you would agree that Auburn handled the Cam Newton situation proactively and appropriately by ruling him ineligible then immediately seeking reinstatement by the NCAA?

Yes, and they've done a good job of weeding out the guys who levy zero punishment, lie about it, and then lobby for special treatment (play in the bowl game despite the suspension).

Yeah. Auburn did what they needed to do. They ruled their player ineligible (which he should have been), and for some godforsaken reason, the NCAA REINSTATED HIM! #Unbelievable!
