You gotta find a way to step away from paying attention to ND Football if you actually care this much about what 18 - 22 yr olds do
You know, STL, I have some upset too. And as much as I would like to lay it off on the kids, (kids will be kids - and kids do some stupid things) I wonder how six kids and two incidents got so afoul of natural law? Did the coaches stand there and hand them all psychoactive substances and chainsaws as they took off for the presumably 'long' weekend.
I am waiting to find out if the coaches call a special session for all of the players at like 4:30AM; and what happens in particular to Maxi. Everyone has mentioned it; and I want to know, is he playing secret agent, packing heat and all?
Here is how my upset will turn to the coaches :
- If one of these kids (other than Max was packing the gun - Max is an upperclassman that could live outside of the dorm, not under the watchful eye.)
- If this thing boils down to less than two idiots, one with pot, and one with a gun, most not knowing about each other.
- Particularly how Max is handled, and how long it takes.
- How the rest of the team reacts to this.
- How guys like Bilal, all freshman safeties and TJ Jr., react to this.
- How many of the Focus 5 (only at ND would it be a Ford Focus) are exonerated, if any.
If it is clear that this is endemic, or known and not handled, I will have a problem with supporting ND football.
