The behavior of #7 last Friday night was unacceptable, there is NO justification for attacking a teammate on the field or on the sidelines. The team has rules ,which they are all fully aware of, these rules apply ALL the time. The rules apply whether it is the first game of the season of the last game of the season. Applying these rules uniformly is NOT penalizing the whole team, but is sending the right message to the team and the community that NO ONE individual is more important than the team. #7 put Coach Clark in a bad position, but Coach Clark did the right thing.

I have to agree with Skunk regarding the incident on the sidelines involving DB # 7 and # 8. This was not a fight between the two players but was an attack by #7 on # 8. This incident was an embarrassment to the school, the team, the fans, and especially the coaching staff. The coaching staff should have taken immediate action to discipline #7, but he went right back on the field. My feeling is that if # 7 had come off the field and attacked Duran, corrective action would have been taken. Certainly hope this situation is addressed this week by the coaching staff.
