Devils star slapped with fine as NFL announce punishment

The players McLeod and Dube’s legal teams announced that they will be entering a not guilty plea.

David Humphrey and Seth Weinstein, McLeod’s attorneys, issued a statement stating, “(We) will vigorously defend the case.” “We kindly request that the public respect the privacy of Mr. McLeod and his family. We won’t be making any more comments at this time because the case is still before the court.”

We recently saw Tennessee go through a stringent investigation process with the NCAA, with the Vols ultimately paying a hefty fine to avoid a postseason ban. Was this idea on the table for Arizona State? AD Ray Anderson wouldn’t comment.

But this is the problem, knowing the NCAA is going to great lengths to avoid having to punish current players. Even former Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt lobbied for the Vols to not receive a bowl ban. But this wasn’t the case for Arizona State. They caved and sacrificed the season, while Herm Edwards is back working for ESPN.
