That is not at all what I meant. I've read through some of the posts and maybe this was what the staff was hoping would happen. I pull for every player to make it and to take advanage of what is given to them. I hope it all works out for everyone involved.

IMO, this has only a small bit to do with "football".
As with Garcia and others, what SCAR is building is a culture of responsibility and accountability.
Its easy to kick a kid out but I think keeping kids in an environment conducive to self-betterment will pay dividends down the road. If he were allowed to transfer to some softy program and be allowed to simply "get by", he'd be a headcase for years to come.

Nice post cd. Well stated comment about USC building a culture of responsibility and accountability. The coaching staff seems to be going to great lengths to help these young men develop into responsible citizens--like you said, perhaps the easy thing to do would be to kick him off the team. Ultimately, the type of men they become is what's most important because probably only about 5-10% of them will make it to the NFL. Not sure of the actual percentage, but the bottom line is, if any of these young men do "go bad," it won't be because our coaches didn't care.

Great post...you hit the nail on the head.
It's time that coaches care as much about building great "men" as they do building great "players".
Hats off to SOS and company for having the guts to give it another go....
