Kudos to the NCAA for getting this one right

It doesn't happen that often, so when it does, it deserves note.

The NCAA got something right. They decided that the Ashton Kutcher-related violations that Iowa self-reported were secondary in nature and that the recruits would not receive any punishment.

Its seems silly, I know. A recruiting violation was committed when a couple of players decided they wanted to take a picture with Kelso from That 70's Show, who it just so happens in an Iowa fan. Since Kutcher and his wife Demi Moore were there for a fundraiser, they were deemed to be representatives of Iowa's athletic interests. The same goes for former Hawkeye players Reggie Evans and Dean Oliver, who the recruits also met.
