Some parents are now speaking out in support of their coach, but at least one has pulled a player from the team.
five players were hospitalizedJacob Collicott was the last of five Concordia University Chicago players to be released from area hospitals this week.
The last time Collicott hit the hardwood with the Concordia Cougars was at a Dec. 29 game in California. After two back-to-back losses on the road, some players missed curfew. Saturday was a tough workout. CBS 2's Sara Machi went to the home of Head Coach Steve Kollar Thursday when we learned of the allegations -- though he said he didn't have any comment -- but he does have the support of some students and parents.
Machi said as she filing a report Friday night, a group of students came over to her car. They did not give their names, but they did have a message: They support their coach."I could not believe A: this is happening still and B: finally he is being brought to the table," said one concerned parent.
