In giving choices on penalty enforcement, if we hear something we "think" is wrong do we keep rephrasing to try and get the "right" answer?
I guess I just think that especially at the varsity level these are young men. They need to be treated as such which means they need to learn that with a position of leadership (being a captain) their is some sense of being responsible for their actions and descisions they make.

This is a life lesson... not a football lesson.

It's only a game. There's a lesson in our listening and comprehending, too, and being preventive.
