: The way that you made your statement sounded like you were saying it was almost ok for the football team to "stick together" by breaking into these kids' house and beating on them. Thats not sticking together, thats criminal... and hormones flowing? hormones or not... you should know right from wrong
: And as an IUP grad, im not saying a word about being an expert, It's just sad to see that going on in a place where I spent 4 yrs of my life going to school.
: So basically what it sounded like you were saying was that by doing something some gang would pull, If its a football team it promotes team spirit and comraderie? lol
Jocks or not, what happened was wrong. These kids need to learn that they are not above the law and should face consequences for their actions. As far as their scholarships go..anyone with a scholarship (sports, academic, whatever) should appreciate what they have been given and have enough respect to play by the rules.
