You're probably right that he's doing Pryor a favor, but is he right to do so? I don't think so. I have to agree with Hinyg8 - he didn't break any NFL rules or any laws. Pryor deserves something from someone. But I can't figure out what or from whom. I just don't know that Goodell is that someone.

If he can make a good case that Pryor is bad for the NFL, and that simply letting him into the league at this point can damage the NFL, I'd be all for having him sit out. And actually, I do think that skipping the first draft for a second draft potentially can harm the NFL, as well as the NCAA. I don't know how common a supplemental draft is - I've never heard of one before this. Is it a 1-player draft, or will there be hundreds of people trying to get a spot? Maybe the rule should be that everyone entering a supplemental draft has to sit out 5 games. I'd be OK with that. But for Goodell to be the shaking finger pointed at Pryor - I don't see it as "right".

^^^exactly what I meant, and what I should have said. ^^^

I admire your positive attitude, but let's keep in mind that some of these transgressions may have occured while he was still playing; and further, its likely they would not have been uncovered if the NCAA had not been investigating him in the first place.

the NCAA was investigating him because OSU self reported the initial violations. OSU also investigated Sarniak before TP stepped foot on campus. I think OSU did their due dilligence but who knows.

I just found SI's retraction (of sorts) in the 8/22 edition in the "Scorecard" article.

SI says, "Two days after Emmert's gathering, Ohio State officials were in Indianapolis appearing before the COI for their football sins against the NCAA rule book. Ohio State may not deserve to have the book thrown at it, but until Emmert and the NCAA make that a real consequence for wrongdoing, real reform will remain elusive and the crisis of confidence will continue."

In other words, OSU may not deserve it, but it should be done anyways! Priceless.

But there is the acknowledgement that implies that the "sins" were not of the nature that deserves harsh punishment - which SI could only conclude if they no longer believe the bull[Mark May] they printed a few weeks ago.
