By keeping a player who doesn't want to be there, and showing the rest
of his team he doesn't really care about how any of them feel, that
he's just going to do whatever he is able to in order to benefit his
team? Isn't this the slippery slope that ends at a place we call "win
at all costs"?
By that logic, LP should never have been suspended.
College athletics is still SUPPOSED to have a little bit of nobility
and altruism to it. It is NOT supposed to have a business mindset of
do whatever you can get away with to get something over on somebody
else. "In the deed the glory". Do those words ring hollow to you?
