Stewart Mandel is spot on when he says that the one-game suspensions meted out in the FIU-Miami game are grossly inadequate.

This was one of the worst displays of sportsmanship in the history of the sport -- and for that the players are going to miss one game? Against Duke??

Let's stop and think about this for a second. When Clemson and South Carolina had a similar incident in their game two years ago, the schools voluntarily banned themselves from their bowl games. Yes, the players only missed one game -- but they also missed the entire week of festivities that go with it, not to mention for the seniors it would have been the last game of their careers. Do you think Miami's players even care whether they get to play against Duke? Some of them are probably thrilled not to have to make the trip. They get a weekend off to relax at home.

For years Miami has had a reputation of being "thuggish". Lots of schools have trouble managing their image, especially when it comes to players off-field antics. And it's not like the NFL players give them very good role models either. But as a college football fanatic and booster, I would like to have seen bigger punishments handed out. Especially for the way ejected Miami players smiled and gave thumbs up to the crowd as they were being escorted off the field. And the entire Miami team celebrated after the fight, jumping up and down with their helmets in jubilation.

To their credit Miami has said it's not finished handing out punishments, and that Reddick has been suspended indefinitely for using his helmet as a weapon.

In case you were living in a hole this weekend and missed the bench clearing brawl, check out any of the numerous you tube videos.

UPDATE: Lamar Thomas, the former Miami player and color commentator who cheered on the fight from the broadcast booth was fired by Comcast. Then again, the CSS general manager is Mark Fuhrman.

And of course the fans were cheering them on too.
