Hey moron, NO WHERE in Slive's new rule did it say that a coach's remarks would be graded on a sliding scale of criticality. It said if you criticized the officiating, you would be fined AND suspended... did you learn to read when you were growing up or did you have your momma read and type your post?
I think the majority of the people on this board do not think that Meyer should have any punishment for what he said, and a week ago, this wouldn't have been an issue.
However, our grand poobah Slive decided to make a point about coaches publicly saying things about the officiating in the SEC and now he's stepped in it. If he doesn't "fine AND suspend" Meyer, then his new rule means nothing.
If it was anyone besides Meyer, I'd be saying that same thing. If it was Kiffin and I was being HONEST with myself, I would be saying the same thing.
Go crawl back in your cave.
Slive did say that it would be discretionary. I think that should go to punishment. I mean, if a coach rails on the officials, or calls them names, or insults them like you sometimes see happen, then I think that merits a harsher punishment than "I think that should have been called, right there."
But, I agree with you that Meyer should have gotten something for it. A warning, a reprimand, one of those letters that Kiffin mentioned the other day. Something.
