Neither you or I make the rules. It's pretty standard procedure as far as punishments go when you use ineligible players.

Entire teams have suffered the consequences (including the innocent) for the actions of a few as long as there have been sports teams.

You may or may not like it, that doesn't change the rules and punishments. It wasn't arbitrary. It's even what Fr. Jenkins said we'd do if it was found we used ineligible players.

perhaps there should have been some accountability.
