Jack Parker was also given the same punishment for actions in the
BU-MSU series that season. Both coaches were to sit out their next
NC$$ tourney game - whenever that was, and it turned out to be the next
season.
This was a punishment that was handed down by the NC$$ in the
off-season - unlike the player suspension from the RPI game which was
a simple DQ assessed during play. It doesn't appear specifically in
the rule book, although the NC$$ does retain the right to take action
as necessary against players/coaches involved in their tournament -
witness the punishments certain Wisconsin personnel received following
the 1992 championship game with LSSU.
Speaking of which, I realized that I need to do something in my
records about the games Wisconsin was supposed to have forfeited that
season, including as I recall the vacating of the runner-up position
in 1992. (This was not related to the incidents that occurred in the
championship game.) I believe Wisconsin was required to offer
forfeits to all opponents in 1991-92. Does anyone know which, if any,
opponents accepted the forfeits and what UW's official record is for
that season?
