Is college football so competitive that National Championship winning coaches will put up with outright criminal behavior on a continuing basis? Hell yes! We could go on for days about today's society. Our eroding moral fiber. Our lack of parental discipline. Yada, yada, etc. The pressure on these coaches is so high to win---make the school money---that they accept many troubled, and, or borderline, players.
The coaches won't stop accepting troublemakers until we fans say, enough! But we want our school to win damn it. Don't give me that ####, but so-and-so does it the right way. BS! Name one team that's won a NC in the last twenty-five years that hasn't had some troubles off the field. Notre Dame, Penn State, everyone has had something going on. The only teams that can claim to be doing it the right way are the Service Academies. And when was the last time Army or Navy won a NC?
It is a Catch 22 situation for sure. Do we want a winner, no questions asked? The old don't ask, don't tell approach. Or, would we be satisfied with being a 500, at best, team most years---how you livin', Stanford--- ,and do it the right way?
Originally, this post was to bash LSU, and---thuglife4ever---quarterback,Ryan Perrilloux, but once I started I went in another direction. That direction is, to ask yourself, "How much #### am I willing to overlook, year after year, to have a winning team?"
