Title: "Stephen Garcia’s dad responds to dismissal" Post by: Chechem on October 12, 2011, 05:27:13 AM *** Nomination for Parent of the Year *** Quote “Obviously, Stephen is responsible for his actions, which we’ve told him from the beginning,” the elder Garcia told the Tampa Tribune. “He should’ve known better. He should’ve made better decisions. I don’t know how many college kids can handle zero tolerance, but those were the choices he had.” Stephen “decided to have a couple of beers. And then they decided to random alcohol test him and that’s what he failed,” Garcia added. “I don’t hold the university responsible for it. Stephen did it. He should be responsible. You only get so many chances.” :o Finally, a real parent.
