Nice story on Arkansas prep football player and a display of sportsmanship

Luke,

Thanks for stopping by. I'll assume, in your first post, you meant Morgan had received "counseling" as opposed to "canceling."

I can't say I agree with the "media" deciding to withhold accident victims names to protect them from interviews, but I do thank you for at least coming by to answer stuff.
 
Thanks for continuing the stereotype.
As a member of the Arkansas Media, are you saying you didn't report on it, or are you saying the "Arkansas Media" didn't report on it? Because that's, like, confusing.
Morgan tested positive for marijuana and transfered to Cave City because his dad played with the head coach there. As soon as the semester is over, he'll transfer back to Newport where he will graduate.
I found that out with one phone call and an e-mail.
I'm guessing you didn't know that it was drug "canceling" but by all accounts, the player is supposed to be a decent person, who made a mistake.
You picked the wrong business, if you want to cover for people because they don't want to get interviewed but you just guessed that. You don't really know, some people might want to open up and tell their story.
Regardless, other people are trying to do their jobs and you are trying to keep that from happening.
Nice work.

Wow. I think you’re being a little harsh.
