Message: [QUOTE="billsin01, post: 426321, member: 837"] I don't think there's an argument that it was a bad decision. I'm just not sure it's fair to simply say the guy killed a kid and disregarded his safety. Tressel also points out that he didn't know if they'd be inside or out at that point. It wasn't like it was a no-brainer for him. Horrible tragedy and BK might be a total a$$. I just don't know that it's as simple as that. What about the fact that each one of these guys ask these kids to do a ton that isn't in their best interest (spend all year focusing far more on football than anything else) or taking their personal safety into account (concussions and the after-affects of playing football, use of supplements ...) every single day. I'm not trying to absolve BK of blame, but I'm just not sure it's a sinister and evil as you make it out to be. [/QUOTE]
