It was a terrible mistake to allow Holloway and the other player to be interviewed after the game. They did Xavier no favors. I was really surprised that no one “advised” them about what they should or shouldn’t say in the wake of the brawl. In my opinion Gates should miss a lot more than six games. The whole thing was sickening.
Some reports said the Penn State football program brought 50 to 80 million dollars to that school.
If the basketball programs bring in 1/10 of the money Penn State football does, it is still a nice hunk of change.
Stars being booted from the team when big dollars are involved? My guess it is not going to happen.
The post-game interview was the fault of the coaching staff. No control.
