As thousands of college athletes and coaches across the country try to adjust after the sudden suspensions of entire seasons of competition and perhaps more so the camaraderie of daily practices, training sessions and team meals, communication specialists and mental health professionals are encouraging those involved to allow these young men and women to go through the stages of grieving as needed. "I think for all of us in college athletics the No. 1 focus always has to be on the student's well-being," Musselman said. (AP Photo/Mark Humphrey, File)
