[QUOTE="Frenchise, post: 454474, member: 1007"] They’ve since changed the policy. Dedrick wouldn’t be off the team if he had played under the new policy. I think the old policy was heavy handed(inflexible, not adaptive to individual situations) and not in line with our mission to prepare good men. The new policy focuses on counseling, and rewarding a player for time spent clean. In my view - that’s a better way to reform people than the old system. Kids come here with habits - and habits are hard and require time to break - a player who’s showing progress but slips up shouldn’t be tossed out. I’ve seen the effects of zero tolerance policies on friends and their siblings. Being uprooted from an environment is traumatic and most teenagers rebel even more, some have passed before they were 25. It’s ruined lives. That’s my opinion, you’re welcome to yours. [/QUOTE]
