[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 733240, member: 2426"] The Dallas Morning News posted a transcript of a recording of the call between Woods and Rolovich. [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.dallasnews.com/high-school-sports/2020/08/02/former-dfw-athletes-participate-in-pac-12-unity-message-kassidy-woods-allegedly-kicked-off-college-roster/[/URL] They don't have audio of the call, just a transcript. The player told the coach that he is opting out because of concerns about sickle cell and COVID. The coach said health concerns are good and asked if the player is joining the movement and if that is what it is about. The player said he is joining. The coach said aligning with the movement is going to cause problems. He is good with health related issues, but the movement is going to cause issues on the team. The coach asked if he is planning to go home and stay at home. The player said, no he is going to continue to work out, just not travel with the team. The coach said, no it will send a mixed message to the team if he works out but doesn't play, and they can use the resources for players who will be playing. They exchanged pleasantries, how's the family, etc. You have to read between lines to get that he will be kicked off the team if he joins the movement. It might be there, but it isn't blatantly obvious. Something I would be more concerned about is actually recording and releasing the recording of the phone call. Washington is a two-party consent state for recording phone calls. It is against the law to do so unless he informed the coach. Releasing the recording to the media is a violation of trust between him and the coach. That might be a difficult rift to repair, even if the ideas around the movement are addressed to all parties satisfaction. It seems even worse to release the audio of the phone call when: The call doesn't appear to be a blatant confirmation of the claims. And, the coach/school haven't made any comments to counter what his parents have said. [/QUOTE]
