"I need an answer! Now!"

Robert's emotions fluctuated violently at first sight. One question after another, one louder, and the rising momentum was completely gone without the usual calmness and calmness. The endless momentum was like a storm, smashing towards Latimer on the head and face.

Robert, who had always been cold, could now feel the burning anger in his chest, and that irresistible anger was fiercely breaking out of the ground.

"David, you have lost your composure." Latimer was still calm, and directly ignored Robert's anger and reminded him lightly.

Robert was ultimately due to his personality. He was not good at quarrels or confrontation. He was also facing his teacher. After the impulse, he gradually calmed down. However, the emotions surging in his chest were still unable to completely calm down. He just said anxiously, "Sir, but..."

"No, but." Latimer was very calm and cut off Robert's words directly, "You should know that they would never allow anything to affect the 'Sunflower Battle'."

The Sunflower-showdown, originated from the nickname "Sunflower State", of Kansas. It has become the official title of the showdown between Kansas State University and Kansas University since 1898, covering two events, baseball and football. It originated from baseball, but as time goes by, football gradually emerged, and both teams became NCAA first-level division teams, which has developed into the annual national prosperity of Kansas.

A mere match is a battle between old enemies, a battle of fame, but also a competition for interests - an attraction to sponsors and an embellishment for admission brochures.

"But..." Robert also tried to defend himself.

Latimer shook his head again and stopped his disciples with his actions, "I told you, no, but Noah was just taking over the head coaching job temporarily, and now Lang has returned successfully, which is a matter of course; and that player... he is not an absolute main player in the front line."

Period. This is the period.

But Robert still couldn't let it go: This is unfair.

Not to mention that Walker and Lu Yiqi did nothing wrong, even if the internal conflict in the locker room really needs severe punishment, it is necessary to kill the chicken to warn the monkey. The school should also launch a formal investigation instead of sacrificing two people casually, and then things will come to an end.

"Why, are you sorry for Noah?" Latimer asked loudly, "I thought you hate him."

"Yes." Robert gave the affirmative answer without hesitation, "but he should not be treated like this. He is an excellent coach. Without him, maybe we can still win, maybe not; but, it is certain that the team will not be in the current situation."

"...Even in defensive tactics, he does have his own ideas." After hesitating for a moment, Robert still made a pertinent evaluation honestly.

Latimer could sense the sincerity in Robert's eyes.

In just five weeks, Lu Yiqi has indeed changed many things, including tactics and things beyond tactics, so that Latimer couldn't help but start thinking, if Lu Yiqi can continue to serve as the head coaching position, then what will happen to the team? Also, if all Lu Yiqi's changes and efforts are removed after Pres returns, where will this season go? How should they deal with it?

Originally, even without Jacob's incident, Pres would return next week and things would return to "right"; but now the accident has disrupted the overall plan, and Pres' early return seems to be a natural thing. Even if it is not what everyone wants, it should not be like this.

So, what are they worried about?

Also, what should they do?

Looking at Robert, who was intertwined with anger and anxiety in front of him, Latimer sighed invisibly, "Have you revealed the news to the players?"

"What?" Robert was unknown so, "of course not. If you told them now, it might cause more confusion, and we finally managed to do it yesterday..."

"They should know." Latimer interrupted Robert, and in Robert's confused and questioning eyes, Latimer repeated, "This is the trouble they caused, they must know. Even if it is not now, they will know sooner or later the punishment will come out."

Robert still doesn't understand - he is indeed insincere about these intrigues.

Latimer had to explain again, "David, the school wants things to be handled as low as possible, so that Long's return will become natural, and students and fans will not be aware of anything inappropriate."

Logically speaking, Pres was originally a real head coach, while Lu Yiqi was just a temporary player. Now he is returning to the position is just a normal operation, and no one will be suspicious.

If the school officials are interested in publicity, they can even create a scene where the team is warmly looking forward to Pres' return and firmly unite the fans. At that time, only Kansas State University needs to win the "Sunflower Battle", then everything will naturally return to its original position.

As for Lu Yiqi's power being weakened and Walker being fired in a low-key manner, it's nothing at all, just like two small stones thrown into the vast ocean.

"And now we need to open up the situation, let the players know the punishment result, and then let the students know the punishment result." Latimer's straightforward words finally made Robert understand.

"Let everyone know the truth." Robert clenched his fists and couldn't help but feel excited - they needed to use the power of public opinion to create momentum, "The school wants us to shut up, but we absolutely cannot! Neither Reggie nor Noah did anything wrong, they should be responsible for what they have not done!"

"Sir, I know what to do." Robert nodded heavily, turned around and left quickly.

Latimer didn't have time to call Robert in his footsteps. Originally, he wanted to confirm whether Robert was sure, because there was no turning back when he took this step. Once he took this step, there was no room for regret. But Robert's impatientness did not leave him time.

He suddenly realized that maybe this was Robert's answer, just like Lu Yiqi's answer, they were all young and still had the faith they longed to protect and were willing to sacrifice; unlike him, the old guy, who had half his foot in the coffin, and seemed to have no hope for anything.

In fact, deep down, he made the same choice, otherwise he would not have spoken for Lu Yiqi in front of Weather, insisting on Lu Yiqi's statement, hoping to save Walker; but he was always suspicious and hesitant, and always worried about whether his choice had touched the wrong taboo.

But now...it doesn't seem to matter anymore.

Long, Latimer let out a sigh: Maybe this is the best, and the future should belong to their young people.
