the world has turned upside down - he gambled ON HIS OWN TEAM? So ridiculous - to think Jim Thorpe lost his medals - which were reinstated I believe -- for so much less - a semipro baseball team was it ?

What coach would want a kid like that on their team?

I even read that some Fordham U mens hoops players were implicated in point shaving etc. It's a cardinal sin IMHO -

"What coach would want a kid like that on their team?"

A coach who stands to earn a sizable bonus for making the championship playoff tournament (or, to avoid losing his job and multi-million salary for not making the tournament) and needs a good QB.

I could be wrong, but I believe this covers a majority of coaches.
