So in the OP, the Visiting team - who lost - has already suspended 8 players for their involvement in the "incident", while the Home team - who won and plays for the Upstate Title on Saturday - is "still investigating" and doesn't want anyone to "use too broad of a brush".
Could this maybe be the reason why we continue to see these types of "incidents" around the country? The school that has a chance to play for the title has not taken any action, and probably will not until after their game on Saturday. That sends a louder, clearer message to the young adult athletes involved than any lectures from the coaches and AD's ever will.
Nail those players who were involved - from both teams - and let others in the area see what happens when you want to pull this type of crap. It will clean up quickly.
