I would agree to kick them off, but the crime was done under high emotions, and remorse was obvious b/c they returned 99% of the stuff. They were just mad, if you ask me they shouldn't have stolen anything but should have showed up at sorensen's office and pummeled his lilly, faggot, linguini-spined ass. That would have gotten the message across... |
I understand your thoughts completely. Look at the situation as a whole...
#1. You punish the team with no bowl game.
Punishment Accepted
#2. Now you punish players individually with suspensions.
Punishment Accepted/Starting to go overboard.
#3. Then you punish the players by not having a seniors banquet.
Punishment is now going overboard.
How many times are you going to punish these individuals over one incident. The suspension and lack of bowl game should have been enough. When is the punishing going to end?
As for the theft, yes everything was returned except for a laptop. All of this was probably done out of anger and raw emotion and if they wanted to make a statement, I doubt they would have brought back the stuff the very next day. The fact that Whiteside/Williamson has NOT brought back the laptop (Valued at 6K) warrants them to kick his butt out of the school. Just my 0.02.
