Really glad to hear that they've identified some of what's been going on, and that you've started treatment that should help. Hoping you feel some real improvements soon!
Dude, what are you doing? Stop selling him to the opposition! We need to tell them things like "Herman loves to sing along with Josh Groban songs."
And yeah, his QB development seems freakishly good. Though also give some credit to Urban, who has set up a program where all the players study plays and techniques like they're in football grad school.
As a fellow Buckeye, I get you. I too miss the old, deeply scary Michigan that made me watch The Game with my hands half-covering my eyes. And no, they'll never get how some of us have also suffered through this reign of nightmarishly bad Michigan coaching. They won't get it because they are our One and Only, whom we loathe and revere in equal measure.
What are we going to do, if the Michigan suckage continues? Who will be our Rival? Wisconsin? With their wholesome cheese-fed faces and that adorable badger? Never going to happen. MSU? That would just feel like creepy, quasi-legal incest. Penn State keeps texting and calling, but we are just not that into them. Michigan, on the other hand, will always have another school to hate. They can't grasp our abandonment issues.
But, also, yeah dude. This is a Michigan fansite. Irrationally over-the-top despising and malignant ill-wishing of Ohio State is kinda endemic here, just like the reverse is at eleven warriors. And yeah, neither group makes sense to me either, but it is what it is.
They did sociological research. Actually one of the best academics working on these issues is a Michigan professor, Elizabeth Armstrong. You can click on the link to see her research biography listing those articles.
You can find citations for the statistics they quoted in this article: Foubert, J. D., Newberry, J. T., & Tatum, J. L. (2007). Behavior differences seven months later: Effects of a rape prevention program on first-year men who join fraternities. NASPA Journal, 44, 728-749.
Hope you find that helpful. It's worthwhile to have a serious discussion about this.
But I think the Greek system specifically at UVA has become so entrenched and enmeshed in this rape culture that a suspension is absolutely called for while the university tries to figure out a way to deal with it. If I were in the UVA admin, I would make each fraternity and sorority reapply for authorization and require each one of them to show a rape prevention plan that they are going to put in place to keep this from happening again. And I would have a probationary period where they're closely monitored to ensure that they stick to it.
