That's my fear, that someone's decision to be so petty might result in retaliation of equal or greater impact, unfortunately with social media it's a whole new world out there and things are permanent.
Worst thing is that regardless of how I feel about what happened to the kids at my school is I'd hate to see it happen to someone else's kids, especially if scholarships are involved.
I hope it wasn't a member of the team that was involved in this deal. I have friends involved with the Northwood football family and family from there, I'll guarantee they would feel just as upset as Middlebury was when it was discovered how this went down.
I'd be willing to bet that admin for Wanee and some in the football program would agree with my take and it's not a tit for tat anyone wants to see.
These kids are just that, kids. Now thanks to a few factors, they didn't get to play their last game of their senior year and the general public sadly assumes it was a black and white case of being stupid on their parts.
