I don't know if it would be okay to publish his email address (posted on the Buffalo High School website) but I did send him an email thanking him for being a winning coach that does not want the boys he coaches to grow up emasculated.
I don’t understand people who get fired then apologize. If I lost my job I’ll be damned if I’d apologize. In fact, my position would be “If you let me keep my job, I’ll apologize. If not, then I double down on what I said.”
Somebody needs to send this guy a dozen roses.
This thread has attracted quite a few Nancys.
Interesting - the week Bobby Knight’s record will fall.
The players, if any who turned this into coach are probably bench warmers mad about playing time.
Soon to be seen as the next “FreeRepublic But-Hurt Complaint Form”.
If I was a defensive player on this team, my feelings would be hurt that he only sent out an offensive survey. What? No love for the defense?
Against my better judgement, (and with all the controversy recently over Penn State)... I will admit that I am a football Mom. During the last two years, I have seen all sorts of football coaches from other teams. Fortunately, my son has fabulous ones. I won’t tolerate physical abuse in any manner or form. However, I don’t mind and fully understand when coaches push a player. It is a sport that takes a certain amount of ... shall we say, male testosterone. Many times, it is all about rising above fear, insecurity and facing a much larger team. Since my son plays the line, I know that one assistance coach will whisper to him, ‘Pick your B*tch”. Doesn’t bother me in the least. Many of the freshman J.V. who were more sensitive to running, drills, and hits... left the team early on in the season. It just wasn’t for them. I don’t have a problem with the “feelings” report. My son howled when he read it!
If he resigned or was fired, then why apologize?
Don’t scare me like that. I thought you were talking about the University of Wyoming’s coach. We are having the best season in over ten years.
