<p>Coach Dooley has taken the appropriate disciplinary action. I would expect nothing less from him.</p>
<p>Get real, folks. Last year at Penn (an Ivy, last I checked) several varsity wrestlers (one I know received significant "need-based assistance) viciously assaulted someone outside a bar and were charged with felony assault. Not even SEC athletes and not even football players… I have many other stories that I can’t share regarding athletes at highly-selective schools. It isn’t just the paid “thugs” from the stronger athletic conferences AND surprise, surprise, many NON-athletes are involved in similar incidents but you don’t get to hear about them!
Yes, there are lots of issues with the athletic culture, but it isn’t quite the way it gets portrayed on CC.</p>
