re: No Dwight McGlothern/Baskerville on depth chart for Texas Bowl

Why exactly don't you agree with it?

Firstly, I agree in principle. And such things aren't soley for social reasons. It has a football reason. Guys that don't make meetings or film study on time cause the others to have to wait on him. One guy's actions wastes everybody else's time. And it is rude. And most importantly, it is a sign of selfishness which is the opposite of being a good teammate.

But what I'm disagreeing with is the punishment not fitting the crime. Sees quite harsh, even for a repeat offender. There's plenty of other punishments that can be meted out everything from stands, loss of reps, or having to apologize to all.

I get it- it's so widespread (apparently) and there's a distinct lack of "team", just a collection of players, that CBK is fighting. And attention to detail is important. You do the small things right, the big things take care of themselves. CBK has to send a message.

I just hate to see it for McGlothern and wish another punishment had been meted out (or Dwight had accepted it and not pushed back causing this result).

To be clear, I'm not disagreeing with the principle, the message, or need for such at all. I'm all in on that. Just the method in this particular case. However, it is what it is and there's a new sheriff in town. There were bound to be casualties. And there's bound to be more. I can't really fault CBK. Only wish it had turned out differently in Dwight's case.
