Plus what good would tanking your senior season under mysterious circumstances do for your college scholarship opportunities? Playing possum doesn't help you there.

Agreed

The false narrative that was posted in this thread is the most ludicrous and ridiculous hogwash I have seen. IMO, it should be DELETED. There are verifiable facts that clearly substantiates this as a slanderous statement. Sadly it comes across as a shameful attempt to distort and circulate a vindictive and erroneousness misstatement.

There are consequences to every action. We should hold ourselves to a higher standard when posting a "rumor" about a potential recruit or student athlete. I hope we all stop and contemplate what we are about to post and act responsibly with our "statements of fact". None of us should intentionally or unintentionally post information that may do harm to any young man or women wearing a Monarch uniform.

As a parent or grandparent when we send our sons and daughters off to a University we are entrusting the most cherished commodity in our lives to the staff and coaches. Our prayer is they will treat them fair and just, but will also protect, and keep them out of harms way. As fans I feel we have obligations as well. To be respectful, supportive, and cheer every Monarch that wears blue and dedicates their talents to be the best they can be for the next 4 or 5 years. It really saddens me to see this type of post. Please put yourselves in the shoes of the athlete or parents before posting something that could be detrimental to any recruit.
