Poll: Buzz's One Game Suspension

[Tugg Speedman]

I'm not going to ask about Monarch because I think we can all agree that lying is an offense that should get you fired, even if it is only about some MU gear and a ride home.

That said, is Buzz's suspension too much or about right given the offense?

I say about right.

You probably could have added a "too little" option.  It may have gotten a few votes.

I answered about right, in light of how the Nazi Communist Athletic Assc, will view it, but I think it was a little overboard.

Voluntary up to the point that membership is required to have access to significant revenue streams.

Right.  And so are hundreds of other institutions.  You can complain about the NCAA that it wants but it reflects the views of its membership.

For most NCAA members, however, those "significant revenue streams" don't cover athletic department expenses.
Regardless, whatever you think of how the NCAA operates, it's not some tyrannical despotism. It operates entirely on the direction of its members.
