Alberts went down. Hoping the best for him.
No that's not what I believe. I never said I believe that. As you say, I cannot know, you cannot know but then, neither can the coaches who offered the scholarship, his teammates or even him. The kid may not even care, I nor you can truly know a mindset. It's immaterial. There is nothing about the level of this consequence that wasn't known ahead of time. Yet the infraction still occurred.
Yes, we have our different mindsets based upon experience. I simply asked you, how many chances (based upon yours)? Mine says, the kid is being enabled. The next kid is being enabled.
Candle pushes the quality of kid and family he brings in. Perception is reality. He, I believe will not help his reputation or his recruiting efforts if he leaves it as the elephant in the room. There has to be consequence and possibility of redemption, not just because of his basic morals but because if he handles it wrong, it will be a topic of conversation for every recruiter working against him. Look who he brings in.... Look what he ignores...
It is straight forward. The rabbit hole I refer to is the argument of how serious an infraction was committed and what is the exact penalty? You believe he probably has not learned his lesson since this is strike two. I cannot say if he has learned anything this time around and neither can you. I believe the current punishment fits the crime and then some and should have no bearing on his scholarship offer from UT. Perhaps just me.
