No one wants to address it, but if 25 or 30 football players had been suspended at various times over the last 2 years, people would be livid.
The reason nobody is addressing it is because it's a fricking stupid comparison.
Groups of people hang out and get in trouble. If you only have 12 guys, a high percentage of your team is going to be in that group if it gets in trouble.
How often have you hung out with 100 of your closest friends?

No, his job description, you stupid piece of shite, is to punish them when they do break the rules and to try to recruit players less likely to break the ryules. three of these assholes he inherited. He punished all of them. Nothing more he can do. Did you crawl stallings arse when palmer got suspended for that DUI? Or Saban's arse when Prince hall couldntde get his shite straight? Or Robby Green? I heard Dee Hart was in the Dog house for fighting with a teammate. If thats true, Saban did a really shitty job of not preventing it, right?

Keep defending Grant.
Congrats on not making the tournament because of his actions.

Awwwww, Im sorry i pointed out your own coaches moral shortcomings (that just happen to coincide with your own pathetic attitude that its better to overlook problems for short term success).

1 player out of 85 once a year isn't an issue. shite happens. I doubt there is a football team in the country that goes through an entire season without at least one guy getting in trouble.
5 suspensions out of a dozen players in 2 years is a serious problem. If the suspensions were warranted, and I'm sure they were, then good for him not letting the inmates run the asylum. A major part of his job is having control over the asylum though. If the only way he can exert that control is by constantly suspending his players, he isn't going to have a job very much longer. At some point he has to do whatever it takes to prevent this crap from continuing to happen. If it means kicking Green, Mitchell, Releford, and Steele off the team for good then so be it. If that doesn't solve the problem then he needs to go.

You don't bother me. You're just another eHardass that wouldn't say shite to someone in real life.
Also, please explain Cal's "moral shortcomings". As far as I know, he's a good person off the court. Who are you to judge anyone?

Its a false comparison. If there was a three man team, and one player got in trouble, you cant compare it to 33% of the football team getting into trouble. Small group dynamics are different than large groups.

Would you rather him play players who break his rules with impunity? Would you rather the team garner a culture of doing whatever the frick they want (it alwqays starts small) cause unless you're a total moron, you know how that story ends
no but if he is suspending these guys for smoking weed I'd rather our coach not act like a dumbass and realize that people smoke weed everyday and it doesnt make them bad people. rules get broken all the time. there are certainly rules which i feel if they violated then they should be suspended for that. but smoking weed is not one of them. its technically not even illegal.
if you owned a company and your 3 best employees smoked weed would you fire them?

A bit of info for those who think that weed addiction is nothing---it DAMAGES the brain in ways that the brain never fully recovers. Reefers always screw up and most of the time at a crucial time. GO GRANT 100%--he is da man!!!
