      no, snatching scholarships would have been the right thing to do logically from a moral perspective and business.

      Morally you signed up to play, honor what you brought in to do. Too bad they weren't a relevant team this year, I doubt they would have done this.

      In business you don't bend in these situations. The school was losing $1mil per game which will seem irrelevant to the can of worms they have opened. Pull the scholarships, eat the loss and find a brand new team next year. Plenty of college level talent out there who won't give two shits but to play. And most importantly, never have this problem again.

        You may want to check out Hillsdale college in Michigan. It's a good school and this PC shit wont happen on that campus. Only thing going on at Hillsdale is kids being kids and education. Had couple of family members play on the Hillsdale football team and it is a competitive team.

          If you pull the scholarships, you have to fire the faculty and pull the student aid and grants from others who are wanting the same thing. Why punish just one group........the athletes and NOT the other students and faculty for supporting the same cause. That is even more discrimination. What's the difference with the athletes. Everyone had skin in the game, but you only punish the athletes?? If you punish everyone who has a problem it's one thing if you only punish one group its another.

            1. Firing the faculty is irrelevant, even more teachers out there willing to replace whomever.

            2. They don't have to "pull student aid or grants." Those are doled out by the state and federally. These students were under scholarships through the school, not the state or federal government.

            3. Bold part is another mistake they made, letting students off the hook for tests.

            4. The obvious difference with the athletes is they are on scholarships from the school, not from the government like students. They have obligations when they sign just like when a student takes federal aid they are required to be in class.


            and now on the news looks like Ithaca college students doing the same thing.

              Funny you mention this, I was just reading about the faculty holding some type of conference vote over the president of the school not responding to student's claims that they were called names.

                Many whites at Ithaca standing up for the cause. Hopefully unity can be embraced and a common ground of love for one another can be achieved by consensus.

                  So you can ONLY support a cause if you are NOT on scholarship????? Wow. Good thing the athletes were given the scholarships and didn't have to earn them. Those lucky ungrateful bastards.

                              Id hate if this happened when I was in school, too much distraction from studying, now if it happened in high school Id love not going to class and hanging out.

                                  Just a thought, but how much longer before this starts happening in high schools. Uhh this has to stop.

                                    J, you know the fist is synonymous with the Communist movement of resistance?

                                    These kids across country are as brainwashed as a 1960's MK Ultra experiment.

                                          anything to get out of class....sure the faculty are also supportive so they get out of work. absurd what America has become. sheep are told to be offended because others are offended and they follow.

                                            just wait until college players want to get paid. That is something they actually SHOULD protest for but are they logical enough too? Missouri certainly showed they will cave under pressure.

                                              Alright, i did some fist history. Appears as if the fist is used by many different anarchist including the Socialist/communist. It's roots are traced back to the era of Ishtar. Ishtar appears to have esoteric roots which is a lie by Satan.

                                              So, these brainwashed sheep doing these idiotic protest are protesting what exactly?

                                              - Protesting GMO foods that are killing us?

                                              - Protesting the Federal Reserve that's stealing the future of these kids?

                                              - Protesting wars that are killing millions for corporate gain?

                                              - Protesting the fact they no longer have any reasonable expectation of privacy?

                                              - Protesting elected representatives who've circumvented law and allowed criminal gangs access to firearms that have killed thousands?

                                              - Protesting rigged elections?

                                              - Protesting those who were to big to fail and to big to jail?

                                              - Protesting the rigged stock market?

                                              - Protesting the artificially low interest rate?

                                              - Protesting a lax border security that threatens the safety of every American?

                                              - Protesting the CIA and White house for high treason and abetting foreign terrorist networks?

                                              - Protesting planned parenthood killing and harvesting the body parts of babies?

                                              - Protesting the recent Ivy league schools wanting to destroy the documents of freedom for all called the Constitution?

                                              What exactly is holding these little puppets back that is worse than anything i've mentioned?

                                              Appears the sheep will bleed. In your words J tell me what you know that is sparking this unrest?

                                                So, these brainwashed sheep doing these idiotic protest are protesting what exactly?

                                                - Protesting GMO foods that are killing us?

                                                - Protesting the Federal Reserve that's stealing the future of these kids?

                                                - Protesting wars that are killing millions for corporate gain?

                                                - Protesting the fact they no longer have any reasonable expectation of privacy?

                                                - Protesting elected representatives who've circumvented law and allowed criminal gangs access to firearms that have killed thousands?

                                                - Protesting rigged elections?

                                                - Protesting those who were to big to fail and to big to jail?

                                                - Protesting the rigged stock market?

                                                - Protesting the artificially low interest rate?

                                                - Protesting a lax border security that threatens the safety of every American?

                                                - Protesting the CIA and White house for high treason and abetting foreign terrorist networks?

                                                - Protesting planned parenthood killing and harvesting the body parts of babies?

                                                - Protesting the recent Ivy league schools wanting to destroy the documents of freedom for all called the Constitution?

                                                What exactly is holding these little puppets back that is worse than anything i've mentioned?

                                                Appears the sheep will bleed. In your words J tell me what you know that is sparking this unrest?
                                                But it represents, unity, defiance, and resistance. Why do the klan stick a cross in a yard and burn it? Even if the fist represented killing kittens, it represents something else to those students protesting.

                                                  So, if what i mentioned isn't worthy enough to protest and these sheep are obviously protesting something then what is it, EXACTLY? i ask you because you seem to support the movement and i'm not reading anything that's spelling out how these college students have been wronged.

                                                    Recon, exactly! You seem to have made the same mistake of arguing with the supporters of this liberal movement of entitled little pukes that feel disenfranchised because of name calling?

                                                              do you know the old saying "Conquer and divide?"

Imagine if the same things were occurring at HBCU's and the whites were complaining, I'm sure the sentiments would be different, no?

                                                                  Morally you signed up to play, honor what you brought in to do. Too bad they weren't a relevant team this year, I doubt they would have done this.

                                                                  In business you don't bend in these situations. The school was losing $1mil per game which will seem irrelevant to the can of worms they have opened. Pull the scholarships, eat the loss and find a brand new team next year. Plenty of college level talent out there who won't give two shits but to play. And most importantly, never have this problem again.
                                                                  This may be the most ignorant logic I have ever seen. Pull these scholarships and what great high school talent is going to go there in the future? They play in the SEC. Imagine black kids being considered sell outs for even considering missouri. That's what would happen. Can they field a successful team with all whites in the SEC? And imagine the negative press they'd receive. They'd get buried. On the heels of the rape case that was poorly handled there and ended in the victim's suicide. You can't be serious.
