>> making some pretty alarming allegations
Making allegations is easy. Proving them, not so easy.
This doesn’t pass the smell test.
Forced to drink blood became “encouraged” to drink blood pretty quickly. If true maybe you fire the coach, but if the idiot did it he chose to.
So maybe next game they can dump a bucket of blood on the coach in lieu of Gatorade.
My former boss told me what he ate when he was a kid in Japan in the 1920's....Yuk
Smells like BS
It may well be BS made up to try to stay in the country and get a free ride through college. On the other hand, hazing is not uncommon among US college athletes (and high school, and even younger) and it’s often tacitly condoned by the coaches. There was a high school sports camp a few summers back for some kids form one or more Long Island high schools, and the older boys were stuffing pine cones up the anuses of the younger boys (while the latter were be held down by the some of the other older boys). When word got out and the varsity teams involved got their seasons cancelled, some of their parents were actually complaining that the punishment was too harsh, “boys will be boys” and all that crap. There was evidence that at least some of the coaches were pretty well aware of what was going on in that case.
Kenyans are experts at scamming the system.

I crack me up.
<he was pressured to change his major to engineering because there’s no use for a math degree in Africa
Puhleeze. The PC types at most universities would have been all over themselves to encourage a math teacher to go back to Africa. Now mathematical theory, that may be another thing, and they could be right about that little use for that in Africa (big stereotyping here, I admit), but then why not encourage him to pursue that over here?
I’m a prof; no one would ever tell a student that there’s no use for a degree - how do you think we get so many Women’s Studies or English majors? : ) This all sounds like booshwah to me. I don’t know any academics who would say this kind of thing to a student.
Don’t know about the blood though; sounds like something some coaches might do.
Two vampires walked into a bar and called for the bartender.
“I’ll have a glass of blood,” said one.
“I’ll have a glass of plasma,” said the other.
“Okay,” replied the bartender, “That’ll be one blood and one blood lite.”
Dracula took a cruise ship across the ocean. While seated in the dining room, the waiter rattled off the day’s menu. Dracula said, “Never mind that, bring me the passenger list.”
It really depends on the breed.
They don't need accountants?
When you are working with billion dollar SMALL notes, someone needs to be able to do math with some really large numbers.
