I'd sooner see a reasoned and appropriate response.

I think many of us know what kind of coach and person Tim Whitehead is 
... and what kind of people the rest of the staff and the captains are.  
It's a terrible time for those young men that participated, not for "the 
university as a whole", IMHO.

Perhaps AD James was correct that decisions will be made in a few days, 
but I suspect it will be some time before everything is settled at the 
University and in the courts.
