I'm not going to pass judgement over the deal with his son. It could be like you say, or it could be something totally different. I think just totally cleaning house is probably the best thing for the program long-term. It may cost us a few recruits, but we've been getting our ass whipped with all these 4 & 5 star Troop recruits anyway. ==============================
That was the attitude I adopted when the story of Trooper's son first broke But something never sat right with me about a coach's son suing a team because of an unwillingness to meet team-wide standards. And to throw in the racial card on top of that?
Am I'm saying Trooper is to totally blame for the divisions that led to this year's meltdown? No. But I do question whether a mind-set that so readily would claim such victimhood has the skills necessary to navigate a team and coaching staff dividing into competing camps. I suspect not.

Deal 'em up again boys...Romney is running like a Kenyan!
"Give me control of a nation's credit and I care not who makes it's laws. The few [political leaders] who understand the [international banking] system, will either be so enriched from it's profits or so dependent upon it's favors, that there will be no opposition from that class."
Mayer Amschel Rothschild.
"I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies. Already they have raised up a monied aristocracy that has set the government at defiance. The issuing power of money should be taken away from the banks and restored to the people to whom it properly belongs."
President Thomas Jefferson.
"History records that the money changers have used every form of abuse, intrigue, deceit, and violent means possible to maintain their control over governments by controlling money and it's issuance."
President James Madison.
"We have, in this country, one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board. This evil institution has impoverished the people of the United States and has practically bankrupted our government. It has done this through the corrupt practices of the moneyed vultures who control it."
Congressman Louis T. McFadden.
"Most Americans have no real understanding of the operation of the international money lenders. The accounts of the Federal Reserve System have never been audited. It operates outside the control of Congress and manipulates the credit of the United States."
Senator Barry Goldwater.
"The abandonment of the gold standard makes it possible for the statists to use the banking system as a means to an unlimited expansion of credit. In the absence of the gold standard, there is no way to protect savings from confiscation through inflation. There is no safe store of value. Deficit spending is simply a scheme for the hidden confiscation of wealth. Gold stands in the way of this insidious process. Gold stands as a protector of property rights."
Federal Reserve Chairman, Alan Greenspan.
"From the Great Depression, to the stagflation of the seventies, to the current economic crisis caused by the housing bubble, every economic downturn suffered by this country over the past century can be traced to Federal Reserve policy. The Fed has followed a consistent policy of flooding the economy with easy money and credit, leading to a misallocation of resources and an artificial 'boom' followed by a recession or depression when the Fed-created bubble bursts."
Congressman Ron Paul.
"The drive of the Rockefellers and their allies is to create a one-world government, combining uber-capitalism and communism under the same tent, all under the control of a cabal of one-world conspirators. So am I suggesting conspiracy? Yes I am. I am convinced there is such a plot, internationalist in scope, generations old in the planning and incredibly evil at its very core."
Congressman Lawrence Patton McDonald.
"The reason it is difficult is to accept alternative explanations is because we have been conditioned to laugh at conspiracy theories, and few people will risk public ridicule by advocating them. However, to endorse the accidental view is what is absurd. Almost all of history is an unbroken trail of one conspiracy after another. Any student of history recognizes that conspiracies are the norm, not the exception."
