NCAA mulls tougher taunting penalties

INDIANAPOLIS -- Oregon coach Mike Bellotti wants college football to have tougher penalties against unsportsmanlike conduct and dangerous hits.
Now it's time to find out whether his coaching colleagues agree with his suggestions.
Bellotti, the NCAA football rules committee chairman, said Wednesday officials should eject more players for flagrant personal fouls, and agreed to seek input on whether some celebration penalties should be live-ball penalties, which could result in losing points.
While the ejections will be a point of emphasis next season, the celebration recommendation is not even a formal proposal yet.
"We're going to poll the coaches and see if they support that [celebration change]," Bellotti said. "They may not."
Bellotti said the change was not likely to take affect for at least two years, and even if approved would likely apply only to players who begin taunting opponents before crossing the goal line. The penalty would be assessed from the spot of the foul, like offensive holding calls in college football.
Teams would not be penalized, Bellotti said, for a group celebration after the score because the NCAA wants to emphasize the team concept, not individuals.
Then again, the committee may not have to do anything.

I'm all for sportsmanship, but I think goin after a coach is to much. Most coaches, if not all, rip their players a new one for taunting incidents. Not usual for a player to do it repeatedly.
