[Husker] Tressel Suspended

[David Strong]

They always say that the cover-up is worse than the crime.  It just feels
like that what he did was way worse than what the players did.  NCAA could
easily come down on him for deliberate non-compliance.  Jon has a point
though.  The NCAA has been strange and inconsistent lately.  Cam Newton and
the 5 OSU players playing in a bowl but suspended for next years games are
rulings that made no sense.  Not everyone including me loved the NCAA over
the years but they were pretty consistent and could explain or justify their
rulings.  I couldn't understand these latest.
