The church doesn't publicly comment on ones worthiness and therefore isn't going to express their side of it and the Father knows that.....For all he knows his son could be lying his butt off to him regarding the real reasons....ala Ryan Kessman lying to his father.

In any event, it's pretty sad all around.
I think the HC office would be involved though if anything but this EE were a part of the equation. I keep thinking there's gotta be more to this story but I honestly won't be surprised if there isn't.

I just re-read the article and this quote jumped out at me:

Documents viewed by The Tribune show the issue has pitted university officials and the athletic department - who back Walton, by almost every account - against the very church that runs it.
I wonder if they'll keep up the fight.
