Personally I said no "meaningful" punishment. And I consider this stuff the standard crap to make sure they don't miss any games.


You can view it how you feel best. The question at hand was simply the idea that they wouldn't be punished (for, mind you, a crime they weren't prosecuted for) and whether that reflects Saban's personal ethos. It really doesn't, at least not to anyone paying attention and/or disengaging their pre-existing need to consider him the font of evil. If the punishment is insufficient in your view, that's valid. But it's not nonexistent, and there was never a realistic chance that it would be.

But your argument would be that people who said no punishment are wrong if Saban gave them a stern talking to. That is a punishment. Nobody thought they would get a ticker tape parade. Most people here were trying to say nothing significant would happen to two players who were riding around in the middle of the night with guns (one of them stolen), drugs and apparently some criminal they knew. They don't have to be prosecuted for jack shite for Saban to punish them.
