did he really say that athletes should lose their scholarship if they didn't stand for the anthem? If so, that is a really dumb thing to say...
not word for word, but that was the point he was trying to make

Actual quote was

If they don't want to come out for the anthem they don't have to play the sport"

Which proves how little he knows. It’s not about “want to”. This isn’t a protest. The coach told them we go out after that national anthem, same as they always do.
