Pretty much what I expected.

Yeah i was thinking it would be a 2-4 game thing, so this seems about right. it's the first time she's gotten into trouble and you know it's killing her to not play in these conference games. hopefully she'll grow from it and come back kicking AZZ

I thought it would be a longer suspension, but Miller must be satisfied with her attitude and the steps being taken. Good to hear.

Well, just being reinstated does not mean that she will see the court...at least not with the frequency she was seeing it.

I would bet that it might even be a greater punishment to be dressed for games and have to sit there and watch the other gals play and just be a cheerleader.

In what I read she will be on the bench for the next two game ans can practice and can play on Feb 21.

I think the point RWT was making is that she will be elgible to practice and play, but that does not mean Coach Miller will play her or especially "start" her.

She may not start right away, but I can't think of a single logical reason why a coach would lift the suspension to not play her. Miller's not going to jerk her around like that. If she's not suspended, she'll play.

I know Bowling Green Fans are not going to Like what I have to Say, But I'm sticking to my convictions.
COACH MILLER WIMPED OUT, THAT'S RIGHT. NIKI GOT A SLAP ON THE WRIST!!!
Miller Should have kicked off the team period!!!
Niki made the mistake of Driving while intoxicated. She not only put Herself, her passengers, but everyone else at Risk with their Lives. For that she deserves to be REMOVED from the TEAM Period.

Maybe she can get the Bobby Knight punishment...

1500 Wind Sprints.... thats 56.3 miles.... OUCH!

Should have been the rest of the season. Charles Barkley was suspended longer from TNT and he's not on scholarship.

That is why Miller is the coach and you all are not.

On paper, I'd have to agree that the punishment is soft.

Though, Miller is a great coach so I'm gonna assume he knows what he's doing.

[That is why Miller is the coach and you all are not.]

Are you saying he's the coach so win at all costs allows him to make this decision? The more I think about it the more pathetic a three game suspension sounds. If I did what she did I would not lose three days pay, I'd lose my JOB!
