The way the NCAA does this is ridiculous. The coaches violate the rules and the bulk of the penalty is on the school. A better approach would be both schools and both coaches get the identical penalty unless it is a show cause because you can't do that to an innocent coach and the innocent coach should get paid.
So the school got scholarship reductions and the coach got 5 games. Both Missouri and Miami should lose scholarships. Both coaches should miss 5 games. The reason is that part of Miami's punishment is losing its head coach for 5 games and part of Haith's punishment is scholarship limitations.
What does Haith care if he sits out those first 5 games? Missouri likely wins all of those games. One of his assistants gets a great learning experience. Even if he loses pay he makes enough that it doesn't really matter and cheating makes him more money because money follows winning.
Another good rule for coaches would be all suspensions are served in NCAA Tournament games. If they want coaches to follow the rules they have to get serious about enforcing the rules on the coaches.
