Your coach is a lot more slack than my HS football coach was. If one of our players had so much as a single D, you got benched. Failing a class...you could forget about even coming to practice until that grade came up. Thankfully, that was something I never even came close to worrying about.

Nice Nolan!
I went to a roping competition once, one of the cowboys there had a Palomino that would make that horse look small. The guy riding him was probably 6'6". I fell in love with that horse (the cowboy wasn't bad either)
One of these days, I'll adopt one too.
He's beautiful.

Great looking horse Nolan, Please name him Super Duty, cause he looks like he could tote a load.

I like Super Duty for that horse, Super for short.
He'd also make a great Batman. Just sayin.

I think our school had a little more lax policy, but the football coach had a tougher policy specifically for the team. We had very few guys who ever actually had to sit out a game, maybe 2 guys a year for only a game, and nobody ever had to miss practice. Our coach was very disciplined with everything from academics to practice and game play. We had a pretty good team too. I think our regular season record for my 3 years (sophomore-senior) was 25-5, with my junior year being the best at 9-1.

I can see how that's a bit of a problem. We never had any shortage of players for the football team. I think part of why we didn't have a grade problem though, was because when I was a freshman, the coach did bench one of the star players for a big game because of grades. It set the standard that the coach wasn't messing around and he'd bench anyone at anytime because of poor grades.
