Henton's thing was a more serious issue but ulitmiately his suspension didn't fit the crime, but Tressel suspended him until the matter was figured out (which took a while). I'm pretty sure Henton would've been on the field had the authorities investigation been through.

Tressel is one of the FEW college coaches also however that is not afraid to send the guy packing as well and he also is one of the few that will suspsend players as well.. I think JT does a great job handling these things and the reason why some of ya'll think its inconsistent is because he does actually go on a case by case basis.

All's I know though is these guys don't know what they have and I can't believe Nathan with as much talent as he has would do something so stupid.
Worthington was not suspended. He played in the YSU game this year.

However, I agree with your conclusion. Tressel doesn't have a guide book where he pulls it out and looks up "DUI" or "Shoplifting" then suspends a player for X or Y games.

He seems to look at each individual and uses his judgment to determine what sort of punishment is necessary to ensure that the kid learns his lesson. In Boone's case, he obviously felt that the post-incident lifestyle change Boone made was indicative that he had, in fact, learned his lesson. Obviously he saw something in Worthington that led him to believe that it was a one-time deal and Doug would not allow another transgression to occur.

Some kids just don't learn, though. When a player or his parents come out griping about inequality in punishment, you get the sense that the player still doesn't "get it" and any punishments in excess of another player's punishment is a result of that.

Hopefully, Nathan learns from this and we never hear another bad thing about him.
