What Were They Thinking?

Explain to me, please:

If Dez Bryant, in 2009, was suspended for a year for lying about his lunch appointment with Deion Sanders;

If A.J. Green, in 2010, was suspended for 4 games for selling his bowl game jersey for US$1,000;

And if Terrelle Pryor, in 2011, had to withdraw from Ohio State for allegedly making thousands of dollars signing memorabilia for a booster;

Then why Johnny Manziel, this year, will only be suspended for half a game for allegedly receiving payment for signing thousands of autographs?

The NCAA has really lost its mind, and credibility, if any left.

NCAA is using college players to make major money without paying anything. They don't allow college players to make any money with their name/skill at all. And they are wondering why kids only wanna play in college for a year if they can help it. Why can't NCAA look in the mirror, do the right thing and pay the college kids? Instead of working with pro-teams together to screw college players (by putting in age limit).

The NCAA should really set up a committee to investigate the NCAA.
