With the recent allegation of rookie bullying by Miami Dolphins' offensive lineman Richie Incognito, it has caused many across the league to examine the idea of rookie hazing. The discussion was picked up on Sirius XM NFL radio and former Raiders quarterback Rich Gannon got very passionately opposed to the idea of some of what he sees as extreme forms of rookie hazing, calling out Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin and quarterback Ryan Tannehill, saying such behavior "reeks of bad leadership everywhere in the building. Source: SB Nation markaz's Take: Amen to what Gannon has to offer. The severity of rookie hazing can speak volumes to the success or failure of an organization because of a complete lack of leadership by the head coach and in the locker room.
It really does reek of piss-poor leadership. I still find it hard to believe that this was going on and NOBODY else knew about it?!?
they got rid of the guys who tried to step up and be team leaders last season....long, bush, dansby Hazing is awesome though, there should be more of it.
Of course the coaches knew about it. If the "bullying" was actually this bad, you know a lot was taking place in front of the coaches.
