I just finished reading the editorial and the only thing that I question was him saying that the first punch was the one that struck coach Carroll's son. IMO, as time slows down dramatically during something like that, that probably occured at least a minute after everything had been going on, so that part can be a bit misleading. While I'm not saying that IHCC is solely to blame or that SCC was completely innocent, I think the suspensions originally handed out for the brawl were legitimate, IMO the biggest problem that contributed to the chaos was the fans getting involved trying to break it up. These are college athletes that are much bigger and stronger than the fans and while I understand what Billy Carroll was doing, there was in my opinion no reason or excuse for him to enter the court to seperate the individuals. There also should have been security in place in the event something did happen. Two permar security guards were there, but lets not kid ourselves, it should have been off duty (or on duty) officers who are better trained for something like this.
