When you make it personal like attacking the area that USC senior defensive end Jabari Ruffin did to Alabama sophomore cornerback Minkah Fitzpatrick, the apology’s got to match the crime.

No, Fitzpatrick will not get his own shot at Ruffin’s crotch, but Ruffin will write a personal apology letter, USC coach Clay Helton announced Sunday. Ruffin also will be suspended for the first half of his team’s next game against Utah State.

Good job Helton

Also, Adoree Jackson handled that thing as well as a teammate could and was pretty cool after the game. Respect to that kid.

The first half and write a letter? Way to really discipline those guys.

Can Ruffin write and can Fitzpatrick read?

I respect that. Les didn't do shot to that scumbag that took a cheap shop on the kid that intercepted a pass. That surprised me about Les!

I'll allow this.
By writing a letter, he will remember this for a while. Hopefully, he'll play smarter next time.

Plus, he should get about extra credit for it in English 101.

Isn't being suspended for the first half of the next game part of the NCAA rule if a player is ejected?

Never go for another man's junk.

Some things are bigger than football.

Josh Boutte should do the same. That, and he should sit out for about three-four games.

I hope Minkah prints it out, laminates it, and the reads it aloud to his family at Thanksgiving.

Boutte will write one as soon as he finds his red crayon.
