I'm in the camp that thinks they got off light. And yes, that is compared to what most of us thought they should or would get.

Looking at your points, it seems the biggest punishment they got was losing their head coach. And that's something a lot of us give ZERO credit to the NCAA for doing. Steve Robertson got Freeze fired. He's the one that did the investigation that led up to that. And the assist goes to Houston Nutt and his attorney. The NCAA gave Freeze what, a 2-game suspension? To call that a slap on the wrist is being generous.

The bowl ban sucks for sure. But even that they will likely get all the lost revenue back.
