'The NCAA showed great wisdom,'' Haggard said by phone from Daytona Beach, where he was involved in a trial. ``We never should have been included in that list. It should never have come to this.

How the heck is it a sign of "wisdom" to announce a unilateral decision against a school, threaten that school with all manner of penalties, have your lawyers tell you that your rear end is about to become dog food, and then reverse your decision in the face of a lawsuit?

That's not "wisdom", that's kowtowing (thought it's the right decision in the end).

There are SO MANY other problems the NCAA should address...this issue was a joke and it seems that level heads are winning out...but for the wrong reason (legal threats).
