It does not matter if it was one player or the entire team  Zero tolerance for fighting. It was not also some random boy that attacked him it was the coach’s  son. 

If it was the coaches son (not an Arlington student) and a few players then they should be punished. If the coach knew about it then she should be fired. 

Kids that had nothing to do with it don't deserve to lose two years of post season because of the idiotic action of others.

I got paddled weekly (probably more) in 3rd grade because our teacher thought the wrong doing of a few kids warranted everyone in class to get 3 licks. I lost all dances (homecoming, spring, winter etc..) in high school my junior year because 2, yes 2 people came to a dance drunk and got caught. The whole school (800+) students were punished. 

Collective punishment is a tactive of dictarors, tyrants, and terrorist. It is actually a war crime. It is also seen, by many, as intimidation. It is never the answer.

Typical Memphis stuff where a judge bails them out for not following the rules. 
 

What people don’t realize is these lawsuits cost money and it is hurting the TSSAA and the member schools. As much as I dog the TSSAA, they are in the right in this one and the James Wiseman case.

Arlington & Collierville is not considered Memphis (cities located in Tennessee)

can Arlington now do the right thing.  why would anyone want someone on their team that doesn't know what is sportsmanship.  players or parents   

    

Why would Arlington School System allow this type of behavior. Should have pulled the plug on this before it got started.

Arlington school system should be ashamed and ALL associated should be banned. Collierville is getting the shaft on this. They (Arlington) should not be allowed to play. End of discussion.

If it walks like a duck and if it quacks like a duck. Its a duck. 

Don't act like the people of Newbern aren't just a silly as this too. The whole reason that DCHS and Dyersburg don't play anymore are because of stupity similar to this. Remember ber 2003 when there was a fight at DCHS against Obion County? It all started over a racial slur. What did the TSSAA do then? They only suspended the players invovled. That was an actual fight with players from both teams, on the court, after the game and teams were shaking hands.

2007 Season Dyer County loses to Liberty at Liberty in a very early season game. DC tore the bathroom stall doors off and did other damage to the Liberty bathroom. TSSAA did nothing.  

This whole attitude can be the majority of West TN. So let's just start calling anything between the Mississippi and Tennessee rivers Memphis.

Obviously you want to justify the Arlington coach and team. It occurred after the game and not because of anything that happened during the game. Was planned and facilitated by coach and team members. Was not a fight between teams. It was a preplanned assault. One in which criminal charges were filed. Those committing crime claim victim. There is no comparison.  Keep quaking.

    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
