Examples of similar incidents that didn't garner the same type of reaction?

This isn't even about precedent for me. It is about the NCAA protecting themselves and the rest of the college football teams. Whether they've done it before doesn't matter to me at all.

What matters is that I get why they'd want to do it this way.

It makes perfect sense. Everyone that has been proven to be a part of the cover-up has been dismissed. You said that you didn't think that could've been everyone involved and "there could be some people who knew who went unpunished" so the actions are justified. Basically everyone at the university is guilty until proven innocent then. It's impossible to know 100% if everyone involved is gone/punished, but there's no rumors otherwise and all the evidence says otherwise so it's pretty ridiculous to declare everyone else guilty by association.
Ugh.

I said we don't know that everyone who knew has been punished. That's all. Don't make up stupid ####, it just lowers the level of discussion.
