NIU suspended him for the conference opener. I remember at the time thinking it should have been longer. Much depends on the player's past behavior and attitude re the incident.
Funny you should mention poking another player in the eye. Here is what was said: "Wisconsin called Eastern Michigan among the dirtiest teams they’ve played. Several players singled out defensive lineman Turan Rush for his actions. He was caught on video stomping on Allen after his touchdown, sticking his fingers inside Graham Mertz’s facemask in the second quarter and tackle Tyler Beach said he spit in numerous players’ faces throughout the game."
Judge for yourself if the EMU player was sticking his fingers inside the facemask. https://www.madcitysportszone.com/2021/0...ute-drill/
It is hardly a good look for EMU being labeled "among the dirtiest teams they’ve played". Actually, it looks like it is just the one player. I'm sure the refs will be keeping a close eye on him.
