fair enough. but it does stand to reason that one of the reasons coaches come under fire in the first place is simply the fact that these kids get in trouble to begin with. there is no active "prevention" of this behavior....
the only thing the coach can do at that point is react to the situation, so, in that regard, i agree with you. if you want to bash the coach, bash the coach for how
he handles the disciplinary action, not simply
because the kid got in to trouble.
which i think happens far too often.
