While I oppose the abuse of others I don't withhold second chances.  How many of us are still the same goofball teens or frat-boys or sorority-girls from college?  How many bad decisions did you make in your life?

We all have thresholds we were taught to never cross.  This guy crossed the threshold, atoned for the error of his ways and lives on the right side of the threshold for 13 years.  Whether each of accepts this or holds it against him is our own decision.  So be it.  However, is it worthy of a full discussion on the football board or should it head over to the "No Holds Barred" board?

I was raised like bnoro to never assault a girl or woman, I also raised to give people a chance if they admitted their errors and changed their ways.  Where exactly should lines be drawn?  Each of us must make that call individually.  I think we all make errors in both directions drawing lines and need to re-think or re-calibrate those lines from time to time.  I respect bnoro's position as he has a right to think as he wishes.  I am in the camp of people can change.  I support the hire in good faith that HCFB, HR and the AD staff have done their jobs.

HCFB has made a decision, HR has performed their due diligence and the new assistant WR coach is in the fold.  Let's make the best of it and hold him accountable should he stupidly assault someone else.
