Katrina in Football Pads

Of all the consequences of Katrina, the one which is now being brought to the surface with the most heat is the way some of the most promising football players on the Gulf Coast have suddenly suited up and starred for teams hundreds of miles from their original schools. It has even been alleged that some coaches actually went to shelters and made it known they needed a running back or wide receiver or whatever. Opposing coaches and fans have charged that the housing and other accommodations for such players and families which accompanied matriculation in the new school may have even been of the quid pro quo ilk. To paraphrase the line from Casablanca, "I am just shocked."
