As I said, unless there was something we had not been made privy to, which has now been cleared up, that was all the info we had to go with.
Its still harsh for essentially an equipment violation but when in Oregon, do as the Ducks do I guess. |

One, fairly simple way to totally avoid the consequences, of violating even the harshest rule, is to comply with the rule. Wearing illegal cleats is rarely, if ever, an accident. It takes considerable effort to secure illegal cleats, and premeditation to use them.
Players are student athletes and, unfortunately, are sometimes prone to doing, or being persuaded to doing, stupid things. The severity of the penalty seems designed to insure retention of the consequence, which hopefully reduces the chance of repetition. For an adult coach guilty of allowing illegal cleats, the punishment described seems appropriate, if followed by additional administrative penalty. |
