IDK if this is true as I have zero knowledge of anything but reading this makes me think of a situation when I was in HS.
It was the other way around but our starting QB (returning starter) also played baseball and they made it very far in the summer league (legions I think its called ) meaning the starter had to miss the very beginning of fall camp. The football coaching staff then punished the QB by making him split reps for 3 games with the backup saying that the backup earned it by being at all of fall camp. The punishment spontaneously ended in week 3 when we lost by a FG due to only scoring on drives when the actual starter was in the game.
In our case, the QB was a mild mannered kid that was baseball first and admittedly only played football because he knew our team would be worse without him. He had no real love for the game, just his friends. He was able to remain calm during the very unjust handling of him missing time due to ANOTHER sport he was playing for the SAME school. But I could easily see this being much more of an issue for a less level headed kid.
I am wondering if he was being given shite for missing stuff due to football when everyone knows his future is in baseball.
This obviously doesn't excuse what the kid did and it won't help him avoid any consequences but it would maybe explain the tension between player and coaches.
Or the kid could just be a VERY troubled individual with little to no coping skills
no idea.
but he has been playing football for the whole time of HS so doubt it would be an issue now all of the sudden.
