And you do? Enlighten us. What are the facts?
I'll try again. Calhoun wants to redshirt by missing the last two games of this year to retain his 5th year of eligibility. He can do that even if the head coach doesn't agree. He probably has. But the head coach wanted his services this year when he knows he is available to play. Has game plans for these two games that include Calhoun. Not happy with player putting his own interest ahead of the program interest at this point in the season. Has no obligation to prioritize a 5th year schollie for Calhoun next year, when his availability, recognizing his past, is questionable (injuries, suspensions, marginal academics, etc.). Besides he already has plans for that schollie for next year to reward walk-ons or to recruit a new player. So Calhoun redshirts himself but has no deal for 2019 to which he probably wrongly thought he was entiltled. He has his year of eligibility retained; to play next year, he can go DII, or he can graduate (unlikely considering his academic standing) and make a grad school lateral move. Calhoun may be entitled to his schollie for the rest of this year (unknown when you remove yourself from service), but certainly not next year. Dumb move, a shame, a very good player when he is available. To say this is "kicking him off the team" is just as crazy as saying Jenson was kicked off the team in the spring. Some of the same people.

That being said, I think now things have changed. Growing up when I was 18-22 I did stupid stuff but was on my own to make decisions. Now, kids are staying at home longer, pandered, etc. I think both of the above arguments have merit. I agree there is no doubt 18-24 year olds are men and don't need family input. Also, some family decisions need to be made when there is another family member on said team. There are a lot of other factors, such as michigan states RB...he may play on Sunday's. So better for his stock if he redshirts and has a healthy year. Either way, good luck to him, and leave your brother in Missoula!

why would he take his brother with him? Not sure why Justin would even think about leaving. He never complained about his roll changing and I am sure he will leave when he graduates not because his brother is not playing.

Hell he would even sit on the hill behind the stadium during the games, so not to embarrass me.. That said. Parents need to keep their noses out of the coaches decisions..Generally, they make things worse.

My notions are cemented in 27 years leading young men. None are preconceived. JC is a senior in college. The idea that his parents should have input into this is ridiculous. That was the point. Now I am done.
what, your parents never had any input in your decisions after you turned 18? if so, you are the exception, not the rule.

didn't ask who paid for your education. i paid for mine, too, but still told my parents i was going to college. they approved. did you introduce your wife to your parents? tell them your major? did they say anything about any of them? lots of ways to define "input", and i don't see any hard evidence calhoun's parents did anything beyond talking to their kid. certainly don't see that they went to hauck.
but there are lots of real do-it-yourself he-men on egriz. i got that.

Input=advice , I got plenty I still do get both but starting at 18 your an adult.
Some 18 year olds need to be weaned of the tit some don't.
Soldiergriz is on point with this one .
People wonder why we have safe spaces in college
FFS kids need to grow up.

Totally agree. That's what I did. My parents tried to give me advice and have input after I turned 18 because "they cared about me", but I already had it all figured out.
