What you stated is indeed true "gorcajun." However, I don't think that we should be so quick to condemn him due to his past mistakes and shortcomings. We don't know of the adversity this kid has encounterd in his life...obviously he has not had good guidance up to this point, as evidence by his lack of ability to make good decisions.
I always thought that our previous coach lacked talent in the area of leadership. He did not display the ability to mold his players into good viable young men! As evidence by the poor output by our players in the classroom and how he allowed an unprofessional disposition to take place on the basketbal court, ie..."players pants hanging off their butts!"
With that stated...I think Coach Lee may be the answer for a problematic player such as Michael.
