    I don't know if what he did was right or not, but didn't he say he felt like a father to his players. I guess as a father figure, the opinion of how the players felt would lean towards giving them the benefit of any doubt. That would be the danger of accepting that role with such depth. I, like you, can't see how he wouldn't feel like what he did was right.

    IDK sounds like he picked favorites. Of course I say that even thow its reported the team was unified in the decision. Maybe they were maybe not. IDK how anyone could support what that turned into.

    He is part of the administration. They signed a contract. The demands of the groups were ridicules. at the point the game came up for debate, it sounds like the issues had already been hijacked by the hands up black lives matter extreamist

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    I highly doubt that's the main reason.

    Dino Babers will prolly get looked at.

    I'm with you. It's kind of like how Joe Pa died after being canned and disgraced.
