James sentenced to 3 1/2 years for abusing two players

He could seek day parole in eight months and full parole in 14, with probation details unchanged. A Calgary mother called the sentence too light while James' lawyer said it was fair to society. James also coached the Swift Current Broncos to the Memorial Cup in 1989.
