How can he move forward if someone or something holds him back. I dont understand. She says he should be able to attend YSU to further his education but not play football. So, what is her real reasoning for the petition?

I work with a lot of student athletes and I know coaches and schools do a thorough background check on their athletes before accepting them or allowing them to play. I also know that NCAA Clearinghouse do their own background check before clearing them to even step on the field so with that being said... People should not make statements, nor persecute a kid when they do not know the whole story. The boy has been cleared and should be given a chance to play. As the saying goes; People who live in glass houses should not throw stones. Allow the him to play.

He has served his time and should not continue to be judged and punished for it

While what he did was reprehensible, we as a society have decided that juvenile offenders should be given second chances. Revoking privileges ad-hoc due to the publicity of the crime is in no way fair or just. It is simply mob mentality, where since we hear of this one crime (when thousands of others pass beneath our notice), we think that punishments should be extended. Would this be an issue if he was on the YSU debate team? In the theater department? No. This is mob mentality in the guise of justice. He has served his time, and the law states he should have the opportunity to fully reintegrate into society.
