[QUOTE="orientalnc, post: 340434, member: 1199"] So the coach told his I understand your point. I have family in Hudson and Orlando, as well as Miami and Cooper City. None of them would be hurt by the football game being played, but UCF deserves the opportunity to be competitive. The coach decided to treat his players as students rather than privileged athletes (or property of the university) by releasing them Friday to follow their fellow students, who were evacuating the campus. At that time it looked like Orlando was going to have a major hit no matter which of the forecast tracks Irma followed. Now the campus stadium cannot be used for football and the coach cannot get his players back on campus to prepare for a game in Atlanta. Maybe they could have tried harder, so cast some blame on the UCF athletic department if you wish, but what could Stansbury have done differently? Refusing to go along with the UCF decision would have made GT look heartless and the PR hits would have been relentless. We did not need that. [/QUOTE]
