And it still doesn't mean the coach doesnt know what he did and how to handle his team. Academic appeals are a whole different game.


He was kicked off the team because he was academically ineligible secondary to a grade. If the grade is found to be unjust by the system in place then he was kicked off under false pretenses.

Any professor that would do this is a tool on a power trip anyways. In what way does giving a guy a D in a sports admin class vs a C help anyone? Youre willing to go out of your way to put the kids baseball career in jeopardy? Any non MLB job that Foster ends up having couldnt care less about that grade but it could seriously jeopardize potentially getting drafted.

Are you seriously arguing for disparate treatment? Unless the professor had a hard on for him, he may have deserved his grade. Neither you or I would have gotten a better grade just because we were athletes.

Hell, I fought for the difference in a B and an A while I was in school. Should I have told the teacher I would make millions as a doctor had he not screwed me?
