Inane commentary on a game that deserves far better


Friday, February 20, 2004

Kara Braxton's suspension is no longer indefinite -- it's now permanent.

Don't know what her violations were, but I have to applaud Coach Landers. By kicking her off the team, he has lost one of his best players, and probably hurt his team's chances to go far in the tournament. But some things are more important than winning.

If more coaches of men's teams had Coach Landers's courage (you listening Coach Barnett? Coach Harrick? Coach Eustachy? Coach Bliss?), perhaps men's college sports wouldn't be such a mess.
