You can come down hard on kids without kicking them to curb and still be "zero tolerance". The two arent mutually exclusive.Quote:

Thats what I think as well, but not sure about what the zero tolerance policy is. When the head coach was at ISU the first offense was 2 dual meets out. Thats more of what I expect in this situation.Quote:

If they actually hit a girl, I'm down with some harsher punishment. Until that information is available. sit them down for a dual, or so. This seems pretty inconsequential.
2 duals or the scuffle will be sufficient imo, unless they hit a girl. I doubt thats the case.

Did Cael announce as zero tolerance policy for his whole team, or was it just for Long who had any cances?Quote:

That would be my expectation of this offense unless they physically harmed the female. Then, it should be a severe punishment. No excuses for that, but the facts need to come out first. Even if they did harm the female i would bet almost anything we would still see them at the B1Gs and NCAAs. Just sayin.....Quote:
