You are absolutely correct but he will not have to explain himself on the Duke campus like he would on some other campus. Everyone at Duke will know the whole story of how he got screwed over and except for the idiot leftists I think most of the students will be sympathetic to him. That would not be the case elsewhere.
While there may be a few poor sports left, I believe the boys would find
a most welcoming embrace from the vast majority of their classmates.
Getting back on the lacrosse field again and going for the championship
would be a positive goal. It truly is a difficult decision, though.
