Add me to the list of those who think that the NC$$ was brain-dead in assessing
a 14 game penalty to Ingraham.  Assuming it's for the 1 credit short, then it
was an unintentional trivial error that no one realized until the new computer
program was put into place and then was self-reported.
 
ANd if it has to do with the time being at the community college @ UMaine, so
what?  I teach one night a week at an off-campus extension of BU.  But students
get BU degrees there.  So if the community college extension offerred UMaine
credits leading to a UMaine degree, I don't see the problem.
 
The NC$$, instead of picking nits, should take a hard look at the true abuses
in college athletics instead of fine-print violations.  IMNSHO, this was the
equivalent of the death penalty for jaywalking.  Cal would have fared better
if he'd stalked and stabbed the world's number one tennis player.
