Our Take On The Daniel Hood Situation
For the last two days the Knoxville media has been having a field day discussing a horrible act perpetrated by a young man who was signed to play football for the University of Tennessee. If you don’t know the story of Daniel Hood by now, you probably either A) Don’t live in Knoxville, or B) Are lucky enough to have radio programming outside of Knoxville sports radio. Anyways, I’m not going to retell the story here, if you want to get the skinny on it, click here then come back to me for my opinion. I’ll wait.
Here’s my short (I hope) take on it. What Hood did was terrible. But he was 13 at the time, and if his records had been sealed like they should have been, this would not have even been discussed and he might be going to another of the schools that recruited him before finding out about his baggage. It’s a shame to me that Hood’s situation and his victim’s has received so much attention, especially being that she has shown public support for Hood and that isn’t good enough for people. Think about this, if she’s willing to put down her hate for what was done to her, and to publicly support someone who did something terrible to her, knowing that she’s going to probably be contacted about the incident and have to rehash old wounds, why can’t the rest of us respect her wishes?
