If Bernstein actually played a team sport, I'd peg him as just the kind of guy who would be first in line to engage in (his kind of) hazing if he ever were in a position to get away with it.

I have had a number of family members play football in the same conference as Wheaton.

Unfortunately, this comes as a surprise to none of them.

This morning I heard a reference to some of them being on the JV squad. In Division III, wtf is that, glorified Pop Warner for some of the unfortunately maladjusted or injured?

Wheaton plays in the CCIW conference. It's one of the best D-3 conferences in the nation. If you want to go heavily into debt to continue your football career, have at it.

Paying to play junior varsity D3 is baffling. I've never heard of that one.

Very common.

Btw, I didn't know that Pierre Garcon and John Brown are both D-3 guys.

The have JV D3 football to keep kids out and paying. Usually Fr/So players who dont see any action on game day. A lot of them play prep schools or Jucos.

That's very disappointing. Obviously if the school was doing everything in its power the players would no longer be on the football team. I imagine the players will probably get off with probation because they will probably escape conviction with good lawyers. But they should probably throw the book at these kids, especially given the community standards that the students at Christian schools are supposed to follow.

Why is it strange? They are generally people who choose a school to attend and then decide they might like to play a sport in their leisure time. It was beneath Hub though.

People that were raised in Wheaton are well versed in getting out of criminal trouble and vast conspiracies unscathed.

Actually none of the players are even originally from Illinois. Although isn't Herb Lawrence a Wheaton North graduate?

I played at York and as freshman we were made to eat the heart of a child procured through some booster's organ trafficking network. Strange how things can vary between places in close proximity.

See, we figured Joe Newton made your Track and XC teams do that just to satiate his bloodlust.

York was always a reasonably solid 2nd tier program but awhile back they found some nitwit head coach from the Catholic League to lateral over--Brother Rice I think? He basically destroyed the program in the few years he was there. He's gone but set it back 5 years. They lost 50-3 to Glenbard West last week. You almost have to try to be that bad.

Yeah that's the guy! They had at won least a playoff game in almost every year in the 7-8 years before he was hired, including a couple of runs to the 8A quarters/semis. He went 0-9 in his first season.

They fired him, right? He was coaching sophomores or something the year after he left. He lives in my neighborhood (or used to) and there's just something about the guy I don't like. He has that city-worker-whose-smart-relative-got-him-promoted-to-a-big-job ethos about him.

Yeah I don't know--I would hope he was fired but I don't think he lasted more than 2-3 years. The fall was fast & furious. Is he a head coach now? It's hard to imagine someone would hire him.

I don't even think he's the head coach....his career went south fast.

If you see him mowing the lawn, tell him the 88 Dukes OL is coming to your next block party to curb stomp his bitch ass. Right in front of the jumpy house.
