Rather than pray for the married man who used his position of power to take advantage of a young women, can someone please think of the victim during this time. She is the one who is going to need help. Men who prey on their subordinates, be it teacher/student, coach/player, boss/employee, doctor/patient, clergy/parishioner, etc., do not need our sympathy. The victim will be in my thoughts and prayers tonight, not the predator responsible for this violation of trust. As the parent of a college student, I also feel sympathy for the young lady's family who put their trust in a university and coach, only to be betrayed in this way. Just because this act was perpetrated by the son of highly respected coach does not make the act any less egregious. I also feel sorry for Tyler's mother because I know she raised him better than this.
I wouldn't go that far. She is probably 22 or 23. He is 25. This isn't some old powerful coach taking advantage of a 18 or 19 year old fresh out of high school. They probably got caught and had to fess up more than her being victimized.
