Duh, welcome to the real world where mediocore to failing athletes are pushed on to the next level. God forbid we should hold them back, and impact the athletic win/loss record by them not playing. It is common knowledge all across the ISD (all of them) that coaches pressure teachers to spot them the few extra points to pass, and be able to play. The sad thing is that it has the adminstration blessings at the school level, but its a primer for when they get to collega and get payoffs as well.
