To a point is is - especially when the media "sensationalize" a story like this. I think the deal here is the University tried to cover it up and that made it worse. For the record, I've had a few asshole coaches do the same kinds things to me and my teammates as the Rutgers coach did (had a coach bounce a basketball off my head 5 or 6 times because I wasn't running a pic and roll fast enough) - we all just dealt with it. It was a different time - different place...
