Just because Richt sucks at playcalling doesn’t mean a player should be okay with a kid lining up across from them and kicking their ***. Again, self pride.
They are still adults. I’m not giving the coaching staff a pass — they have really hurt this team. However, the players, instead of trying to make the best of the situation, are quitting. Zero self pride. It’s embarasing.
It’s called pride. You can hate the coaching staff and still try to send the seniors out with a couple wins. You could also respect yourself enough where you’re aren’t getting your *** kicked week in and week out by the two star player across from you.
You can blame the coaching staff for fostering an environment where these issues continue to pop up, but you also can’t let kids get away with whatever they want. Blame goes all the way around.
Multiple offenses probably resulted in the suspension. If he missed one meeting or was late to one practice it might have been a different consequence.
