Not a phrase I use, but it popped immediately into my mind when I read those rules:
"S*** just got real, man!"
Good for Strong. Better if the enforcement is applied equally. Texas football players have helicopter parents who believe their little darlings can do no wrong, and believe me...they CAN. Emphasizing academics and character will not harm these young men...it will make them much more than a football player. I don't see these rules as bad. Tough, but not outrageous. And to Texas kids, playing for UT is a reward in itself. I don't think he'll be hurting for recruits.
