 Re: Penn State dismisses some BIG names
The manner of Penn State's handling of the announcement is a bone of contention among some of the involved parents and probably the high school coaches.
Were the wrestlers released at the request of the wrestlers or were they dismissed for violating rules or failure to adhere to standards?
Should the three wrestlers have been lumped together?
Judging from the conversation above, perhaps this isn't a big issue for most folks. But, I'm not sure that Penn St. should want to p*** off a couple of the coaching staffs involved and by extension some in certain Ohio communities.
Judging by the clarification announcment offered on the PSU website by Jeff Byers, we have some answers to the above questions.
While some are lauding the "class/intregrity/honesty/etc." of Byer's follow-up, it remains that the Rella family's posted objections were poo-pooed, and those dissing the Rellas and offering how Penn St. did nothing wrong, have not come back on any forum with appropriate words singalling that they understand that they were misled by the oringinal announcement.
Now we find (what appears to be) a member of the Platt family publically objecting. She is catching some flak. How about the Blair coaches?
Not good. |
