Do you think any of te schools in Kentucky would allow this?:lolrage:
This whole story is terrible for several families and goes straight to my point of winning at all costs. Wouldn't it have been a better outcome if a teacher-coach had talked to his team about respecting women. Wouldn't it have been a better outcome if this players teammate would have had the courage to intercede. Wouldn't it have been a better outcome if the adults involved in this would have provided better guidance instead of saying this is what boys do. I do not know if he should be back or not. Maybe this experience changed him and he now has the courage to step up when he sees young people making poor choices. But the win at all costs was the mantra at this community and it got them national publicity for all the wrong reasons and a great many peoples lives were changed forever. This is just one of many across the US that administrators, coaches, parents, fans are sending the wrong message to the student athletes almost certainly setting them up to fail in the game of life.
