Lagerette(sp) is being reinstated today or next game...at least he missed most of season...But Oregon is now in Nat title picture so I guess they see the need for him
But here's the thing...
They've been winning - and impressively so - WITHOUT him. I'm a Duck supporter (after the Longhorns, of course), but I don't need to know the kid personally to know that this is the wrong move by the football program.
I know that we're all capable of snapping at any time, if provoked. But we also have to understand that those meltdowns can carry severe consequences. If it were 1959, he would've been lynched. If it were 1989, he would've been off the team and lost his scholarship.
But in 2009, he's scolded and gets suspended for a few games.
Gotta love the modern interpretation of 'zero tolerance' and accountability.
I want you all to keep the NCAA's soft stance on this in mind in the future.
