He would never sacrifice the culture in order to play a woman beater, right?

Not unless that woman beater had pro level talent. Or could help win games.

C'mon, folks.

He said "character counts". The type (or level) of character is open for discussion...

Yeah, Hendershot’s a character all right.

He didn’t beat her. He just choked her out, MMA style. Big difference.

I enjoy reading articles where College Coaches consider character as a main ingredient in their selection process. I don't care what school they represent, all College Coaches need to take on this philosophy. If a player screws up. the coach deserves some criticism but no one is perfect especially when dealing with someone else's mind. Kids snap for different reasons and they are the ones who need to be held accountable not the person who had high hopes for them.

Well, then when the kid makes a serious mistake (and a violent one at that), the coach shouldn't be playing them. Pretty easy decision if you stand behind your philosophy...

Hey man- that’s not fair. When the walkon backup punter gets nailed for a PI in Bloomington, that’s when Rev LEO will take a principled stand.

In a nutshell, he talks a big game about being religious, and Loving Each Other, then lets a girlfriend-choking tight end keep playing.

Forgiveness and second chances. You know, exactly what those same fans that tout Lover Boy as good, condemned Alford for with the Pierce case.

Don't follow you here if you mean gay in the non-happy sense.

Rather, I think of clownpants football as highly hypocritical as represented by The Rev. Coach Leo and his sermons on love.
