The players there now are in a tough situation but they can, and should, go elsewhere if football is their primary reason for going there. Besides, with all your dear concern for these current players why aren't you unhappy they're punished by not being bowl game eligible?
The right punishment is for the program to be stopped, for current players who will be penalized regardless to move on, for the history not to be rewritten in a sweeping coverup.
A lot of them parlayed that into nice NFL careers. Can't take that away from them.
