I read most of the posts on here and am somewhat surprised that you guys are giving up so easily concerning the Clemson game. Really? UGA could probably lose 3 more starters and still curbstomp the tiggers. When did you all lose your balls and think one player getting suspended for one game will cost us like that? JHC screwed up, its not whether he should be suspended or not ( he should )but the bigger issue is, the dude took.a risk, one that rarely pays off for a UGA athlete, and did it openly and without concern for the consequences. All you guys who want there to be no suspensions, well, letting the screw ups get away with it is a brilliant tactic, no, rather bring the mother frikkin hammer down and send that message, that you better keep your nose ( or lungs in this instance )clean. I say good that he's suspended, send that message, and go out and whip Clemsons arse without him. Next time, make your choices more wisely. Go Dawgs!

Chuck and Chernoff covered this earlier pretty well IMO. It's not a matter of whether he should be punished anymore. That ship sailed. UGA can't go back and say... "You know what. Maybe we'll get rid of the first offense suspension." Even though it would only bring them closer to the pack (and yet still ahead of UF among others.) The mistake was enacting a penalty that will never be universally enforced across the conference (or the NCAA). Most schools that have the same 50% of the season penalty for second offenses have the luxury of never putting the first offense out there publicly unless the kid screws up again. Giving the coaches the chance to take care of it in-house first is more powerful IMO. I just don't see the kids really afraid of the one game suspension.

I do worry that it could come back to bite us in recruiting at some point. I would like to see it taken more seriously by the SEC/NCAA. I just don't think it's likely that they will be willing to do anything... particularly with legalization as a potential trend in those hippie states.

I just don't want to see connor norman take his spot for that game and given our lack of experience at that position that is a distinct possibility. I agree that the kid deserves to be punished for being an idiot though
