Just horrible…maybe this will wake up their coaches and quit wearing Death Row gear on the sideline of a high school football event.

Death Row is just a nickname for the defense like the Chain Gang was for WOS, etc.....they've been using that for years but no one noticed it until they started winning state..

This is a simple case of adults making a poor choice to rent an Air BNB for a bunch of HS kids...the kids decide to shoot a rap video and play with guns that were loaded.....its kids being dumb....leaving HS boys unsupervised in a house is a receipe for bad behavior and they are lucky someone wasn't killed....

I didnt "notice" until I read a headline about a SOC player shooting a teammate. What does "Death Row" have to do with? Anything to do with certain types of imagery? Like rap videos with guns?

Death Row was a rap record label in the 90s...and yes their rap videos had guns in them (geez I sound like an old man lol)...but I dont think the nickname of the defense had anything to do with these kids making a poor choice...the defense could have been named Sunshine and Daffodils and they probably would have done this...kids do dumb things all the time......I had a cousin who got drunk w/his friends in HS (parents left them home for the weekend..not smart) and they decided to play russian roulette...luckily one of the kids who wasn't drunk saw what they were doing and put a stop to it

The defense could have definitely been named "Sunshine and Daffodils" but instead they were named "Death Row". Coincidentally, there was an incident where the kids happened to be portraying the specific imagery associated with "Death Row" and one of the players got shot and one got arrested (also imagery associated with Death Row). 

When drastic and violent events happen with your program, you can expect newfound scrutiny. Its all fun and game till someone gets shot.

Agree that comes with the territory when you win....dont think the scrutiny will impact how SOC as a football program conducts business inside their 4 walls

That's a great rendering of death row records but I heard an announcer say during the SOC/Randle game that it was harder scoring on SOC than it is to get off death row.... Trust me, I cringed every time I heard 'Death row defense' exclaimed by the announcer..... 

So far, my xpectations of this subject are surprising.  I figured by now it would be 15 pages of back and forth etc.  Thank for the personal story @Matthew328.  The grand conclusion is everyone from the parents to the players excerized poor judgement.  Glad no one was killed

No doubt. Increased scrutiny when players are shooting each other as well. A lot of programs out there where players never shoot each other.
