NCAA rules Deitchler ineligible for 2009-10 season

University of Minnesota freshman wrestler and former Olympian, Jake Deitchler has been ruled ineligible by the NCAA for the 2009-10 academic year. He will lose a year of eligibility.

The story on Intermat quotes J Robinson discussing a similar situation where the student athlete received MORE money, and was only suspended for 2-weeks and made to pay back that money. I am not sure why the NCAA has given Deitchler such a harsh punishment. It seems a little unfair.
