So you think getting a University President to resign based on a lie is small? Dude, wake the f**k up. This is what liberal professors teach and this is the result you get. A self-entitled, pussified generation.
the players had more value than the University president had. They made a move and they were rewarded for it.
Now, let's suppose 100 college kids went 'on strike' to have their governor fired. Would it work? Goodness, no, it would not. The value of a gov > 100 college kids.
The team was going to lose $1mil if they skipped the next game, right? The school/boosters decided the Prez was worth less than this. You know what should have happened? The president should have revoked 100 scholarships after these 100 idiots failed to uphold their end (playing and practicing as agreed).
Pick up 100 kids who actually WANT to play, and give them free schooling. let them play. Sure, they'll lose some games, but they'll also show people don't stand for that bullshit.
AND LETS BE HONEST - you don't become the president of a liberal university without being a pretty big liberal yourself lol. He didn't get proactive and boot them. He was a wimp too. He should have revoked 100 scholarships quietly on day #1 of this, and quietly added 100 new players. Let the new names on the lockers and a nice smirk and shrug do all the talking.
