Pitcher really don't like an ump? Have your catcher duck and hit him in the face!
I hardly think rescinding an offer to a WALK ON catcher is taking away his future. He would've been a #5 catcher and catching bullpens for his 2 years in college. If you want to spin it that way though, he took the opportunity away from himself when he joined in the little plot to hit the ump. Kids (and many adults) need to learn that there are consequences for their actions. I applaud Coach McClanahan for his decision. No one else even punished the kid.
