Idk about that. Seems like CMR takes a reactive approach to discipline, like the good christian that he is. A player breaks a rule (sins), then he gets disciplined (penance). Bobby Bowden and CMR share the same type of christian faith. Bobby's teams were filled with some bad dudes. The issue isn't necessarily religion, the issue is where CRM draws the line. Didn't CMR send his team to stomp on an opposing team's end zone after a touchdown? Wasn't Georgia ranked third in the nation in arrests?

How many times did Bobby choose to run his players as punishment rather than suspending them. Bobby genuinely believed that he was doing the kid a service by not suspending him. I think Bobby and CMR accept that their kids aren't going to be perfect--they wanted kids who would help them win. Like I said, they take a reactive approach to discipline. Golden and Shalala took preventitive measures: anyone--recruits, players, and coaches alike--who displayed somewhat of a red flag was shooed away from the program. Golden and Shalala weren't motivated by religion, yet their line was drawn at a much more conservative place.

****, good post. You expressed my exact sentiment toward the situation.

Richt isnt a complete saint now.
 
Richt is a "stadium steps" Christian. He believes running up those steps gets the soul that needs salvaging closer to God.

Richt wants the best players and many will not be Christians and even those who are wont always act like Christians. He will give them all an opportunity to be men of God but many will choose not to be. They will all have a very clear standard of conduct. How CMR chooses to deal with those who cross the line-IDK-we’ll soon find out. He is his own man and may not be like BB.

Will there be grace ,mercy and forgiveness? Absolutely ! That’s the way God works and Christians are to be imitators of God.

Locker room , players only meetings will be run in whatever way the players want without coaches there as seen on the video.

On the field displays of showing up the other team , I doubt will be tolerated as much as it was for say Coley who was hit with a bunch of 15 yarders this year.
