The fans are the real ones who enabled this, and they are the ones who deserve the punishment. Total loss of perspective on how insignificant sports are.
I disagree. Only people in specific positions in the university are actually able to have power to make the necessary changes and they are supposed to be able to deal with external pressures and still make the right decisions. These are people that actually had the responsibility to make the right choices and had the legitimate power to do it, and failed.
