Over/under on how many pages this will generate on a CycloneFanatic thread?
Hopefully only 1. You can expect the one, since it will finalize whether these two will be playing in that game(they will). I like to think the moderators have figured out how to merge topics.
Anyways, punishment fits the crime in my mind. You can't throw anyone under the bus for a first offense. If they were repeat offenders you have to believe Ferentz would have been much harder on them. An example would be Berryman at ISU. He was kicked off the team for drinking underage. This was after he had been in jail for taking a kids cell phone though. I still to this day wonder how he could have been under age.
