Fair enough.

Football players on a college team are not my kids bringing home poor grades. Plus, I think you completely missed the part about making an example so it never happens again. This entire conversation appears as though you are not really reading what I am writing. Your entire response is...

Because it is the coach that either; One, built a culture where the player thought he could get away with something like that or Two, will not or did not properly discipline the player so that it never happens again with any player. Do you honestly think these players could get away with...

Now why did you have to bring my children into it. I just don't get overly emotional to player's performances on the field. I understand the larger picture.

You don't actually know what coaches do...do you? I would love for you to explain how a FG kicker gets better at kicking FGs without coaching. How do players get better at tackling without a coach? How do players get better at catching without a coach? How do players learn their assignments...
