SWAC Suspends and Fines JSU's Comegy
Birmingham, Ala. - Jackson State University head football coach Rick Comegy has been suspended for one game (Saturday, November 13 vs. The University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff) and fined $1,000.00 for violating the Southwestern Athletic Conference’s sportsmanship policy following the Tigers’ game at Alabama State on Saturday, November 6th.
Coach Comegy’s comments and actions following the contest violated SWAC policy which prohibits coaches, student-athletes, and administrators from making “Inappropriate/derogatory comments to the media about officials, coaches, student-athletes and administrators (or designee)."

Our take on all of this...total overkill! Coach Comegy is not the problem! The SWAC needs to adopt a policy for instant video replay in all league games and immediately procure the necessary equipment for next season. Too bad coaches careers are being jeopardized by the lack of proficiency in the SWAC Zebras Corps. Implementing an instant replay policy would resolve most of coaches and players concerns and provide the Zebras with a reliable tool to assist them in officiating the games.
