View Full Version : A Lehigh Football Dad's Perspective

I have been reading this site for awhile but with all thats going on finally feel the need to post my thoughts(im sure you can all now die happy!)
My son is currently a starter on the Lehigh Football team so while that doesnt qualify me or my opinions as any more valuable than anybody else's here goes:
1) The ND State coach, who I knew nothing about seems like a very classy individual.
2) Ryan Spadola is a terrific kid who made a dumb mistake. He is an academic AA, from a great family and regrets that he not only hurt his family but that of the entire Lehigh community. Maybe it's because I have my own son, or maybe it's because Im older than dirt but these are kids we are talking about who by trial and error are finding their way in life. Lets try and let this kid move on.
3) This should be a super game. After talking with people Lehigh is convinced they can put points on the board and look for a lot of usage out of the FB's and TE's. The big concern is stopping the run and not getting dominated at the point of attack. I wish all the players well and hope for a good game where all the kids come out healthy.

Thanks for the post. Trolls exist in our little world whose sole purpose in life is to magnify a crisis or create one to to start endless bicker fests. RS is a great kid, an acadmic A-A and a coaches' A-A. I would expect Dave is licking his chops at NDSU defensive scheme. Look for Fitz , Jamel and Mark to have great days. NDSU has had trouble with 3-4 Ds this year. If we can hold up in the middle we should be able to stifle their running. O , well executed but very vanilla.

Welcome Lehigh Football Dad, I'm going to make an assumption here, but just curious as to how you'd feel about Spadola if you were black?

"Welcome Lehigh Football Dad, I'm going to make an assumption here, but just curious as to how you'd feel about Spadola if you were black?"-
- Very fair question....I am in fact white so it's hard for me to say precisely how it might feel where I indeed black but I can tell you I have spoken with several of the dads and players who are indeed black and while they werent thrilled with Ryan's acts they have all accepted his apology. He has a terrific relationship with ALL the players on the team, all who respect him and know that this didnt come from a place of hate rather one of a poor decision.
- This is a great forum and the ND State fans seem passionate and well informed about their team as well as ours. My only message is perhaps lets start focusing on what promises to be a great game and not the regrettable mistake of a decent young man.

Great first post, Lehigh Football Dad...I am sure you are rightfully proud of your team, and especially your son. I think an important reminder for all to remember, is most of these "young men", are 18-23 years old. With an 18 year old of my own, I can only hope he makes only a percentage of the mistakes and bad decisions I made at that age. Cut these kids some slack.

Regarding Saturday's game, I am truly intriqued with the match up. With pressure on Lehigh's QB, I can see the Bison winning big...with average to below pressure, I can see Lehigh winning by double digits. I had the same thoughts last year before NDSU played at Montana State.

In any case, I wish for safe travels to all making the trip to Fargo...and hope all the players come out of the game healthy.

I will add one thing to this thread because when I see the comment and many make it I just shake my head. Everyone always wants to call these players kids. They are all 18+ and to me the term kid no longer applies. They are old enough to serve in the military, vote, smoke or get married (I know I know in the deep south thats 14 xlolx) but to call them kids is wrong. They break a law they go to adult court. Not condemning the kid but to call him a kid is wrong. Your son may always be a kid to you but to the rest of the world he's not.

College are the formative years. The player in question learned a great lesson, which is what college is all about. If we learn from mistakes and make adjustments in our lives, both personal and professional, they are no longer mistakes but education.

Hopefully those of us that have followed the story/non-story can learn a thing or two as well.

Looking forward to the game Saturday. Hopefully this whole thing isn't too much of a distraction as the players prepare and we will see, to quote one FCS coach "A whale of a game"!

Thanks for posting and for the follow-up comments. The usage, and mis-usage, of social media by prominent athletes (and like it or not Ryan Spadola is squarely in this category regardless of his age - he's representing Lehigh on a national stage and likely will be playing on Sundays in the very near future), is a topic worthy of debate. There's a generation gap issue as well as the race issue - in prior decades the N word in any manifestation or usage, even indirect, was the most toxic and inflammatory word you could possibly utter - and unfortunately dumb mistakes in this arena get quickly magnified and picked apart. And frankly that's what message boards like this are for.

Personal attacks and deliberate attempts to disseminate patently false information for destructive purposes aren't tolerated here, as one troll quickly found out. On the other hand open, sometimes heated, perhaps factually questionable, and always opinionated debate by anonymous posters on tough topics like this is encouraged. And after Saturday it will quickly be forgotten until the next online controversy comes along.

I'm the parent of a college freshman who's made a couple of the usual young adult mistakes. Resolving them at this age is difficult and at times painful, but ultimately a great learning experience for everyone involved (at least that's been my observation). Seeing some of his posts and his friends' posts on Facebook can be cringe-worthy, but at least in his case he isn't on the public stage and can grow into adulthood without worrying about what yahoos like us think about him. Mr. Spadola also doesn't need to worry about yahoos like us, but he does have the added responsibility to understand that his words carry extra weight. Given your description of him and what his coach says of him (and his actions) I don't think anyone here doubts that he'll be able to move on from this and learn from this.

Why shouldn't he post? Why gag anyone? Spadola didn't call anyone anything, he simply threw the word right back at Towson.

Should be a great game, and I wouldn't want it overshadowed by one team not being able to play all their stars.

Yes their is a real distinct possibility that he will lose this weekend and if that occurs I will wish the supporters of ND State well. But he will be out there Sat and it will reflect the years of hard work he put into becoming a player, not the hours he spent behind a keyboard anonymously bashing young men he doesnt know. Ryan made a mistake, no question but he didnt hide or shrink from it and in the long run he will be a better man for it.

Thanks for the Lehigh Dad posting his comments. The only dog I have in this discussion is if Georgia Southern defeats Maine we will play the winner of this contest. Hopefully, the young man will learn from his mistakes. He is a young man not a kid. My son-n-law was 18 fighting for us in Afghanistan. He can vote and he has a family. He is 21 now and can legally drink so I prefer not to call them kids.

After saying all of that, I wish both Lehigh & NDSU the best on Saturday. I have my rathers on who I want to win but I hope the Eagles are around to play another game after Saturday.

Yeah no kidding. He looked like his old self from last year for the first time this season. Perfect timing. Now we have DJ at full strength (or so it looks like) and Ojuri is such a clutch that our running attack should completely dismantle the Lehigh defense. This will be the most physical team that Lehigh will have faced this year. I said it to JMU fans that their lines will be facing the most physical lines all season and that they better be ready or they will lose. They all laughed and said, "but we play in the CAA blah blah blah". What happened to them? They aren't playing anymore. I do not believe that Lehigh is going to be physical enough to stop our run and I believe that the only thing that will keep Lehigh in this game is Lum. He is a DAMN good QB and if our secondaries aren't having a good day, this game will be close. I do believe that Spadola's comment will fuel our defense, as most our corners and safeties are of the colored community. Go Bison!

Tough loss for Lehigh as Ryan is a 1st team AA and a major weapon. However much I might disagree with this decision based on my knowing Ryan and his character I appreciate the message being sent: that there are consequences for ones actions irrespective of intentions. I hope the ND State fans understand how out of character this is for both RS and the entire Lehigh family. Again best of luck to all and pray for the safety of all.

Oh, it's definitely something, but Lehigh also has Lum, which is the reason Spadola is the #2 WR in the country. Check out any of the box scores and you'll see he consistently throws to a whole host of receivers, and the coaches mix in enough running to keep defenses honest. Spadola's talent - and his YAC - will be missed, and yes, it's definitely something. But if Lehigh is the team some think they are, they can find a way to overcome this loss (as all great teams do).

I still think this will be one heck of a fun game to watch, and really looking forward to Lum vs. the Bison D.

this fool called towson "Ni---" of course he should be suspended and it doesnt matter was #51's daddy says.


We manage to hate on you quite effortlessly actually. It is you who are repetitive and boring.

I will add one thing to this thread because when I see the comment and many make it I just shake my head. Everyone always wants to call these players kids. They are all 18+ and to me the term kid no longer applies. They are old enough to serve in the military, vote, smoke or get married (I know I know in the deep south thats 14 xlolx) but to call them kids is wrong. They break a law they go to adult court. Not condemning the kid but to call him a kid is wrong. Your son may always be a kid to you but to the rest of the world he's not.



Oh, look another bison fan taking a swipe at the south. Stay classy NDSU.

This is why you are a douche. You have added nothing to the discussion and unfortunately sane Bison fans are unwillingly associated with you and the garbage you post. Please do something to get kicked off this board too.

I'll be at the game cheering on my team. I'm sure you will be there acting the fool trying to get everyones attention. So now are you threatening me to? Wasn't one police visit enough? Let me put it to you another way, I worked in law enforcement for years. I've dealt with plenty of douchebags. You wouldn't be anything new.

I've never had a talk with police, probably because I'm not an unhinged asshole. See the difference?

Posters from Bisonville were saying otherwise last night. Apparently, he was banned from certain events and tailgating for a period of 9 months. That period was lifted in August. I have no idea if it is related to his police visit from threatening a senator or not. People say he is the same way in real life as he is online...

He is different in person, he was a class act at the Montana State game. He was probably banned from tailgating(at least that is what I was told) but it had nothing to do with the police visit, he and his friends just got a bit carried away while tailgating from what I was told.

If true why can he not carry that over to any of internet message boards that he trolls rather than be an AssDouche (to borrow Adam Corollas term). He has issues to put it mildly xcrazyx

You need to get out more often then. He is in no way shape or form representative of 99.9% of Bison fans. All fanbases have their version of lakes to some extent unfortunately for us though lakes seems to permiate every message board.
