You don't expect your high school sports team to have a degree of success on the playing fields?

A h.s. coach must run a clean program that the community is proud of both on and off the field. If they don't have both the on and off the field success they should be relieved of their duties. Yes that includes wins and loses and doesn't include those green participation ribbons that you seem to covet.

Obviously you are a mentor to the kids you coach when you are dealing with HS kids, but if you're not coaching with the ultimate goal of winning, you're not much of a coach, imo.

You're not saying much of anything worthwhile. That's the point.

HS coaches in plenty of places are gauged by their win/loss ratio. How is that a bad thing?

Outstanding students and a winning product on the field are not mutually exclusive like you are implying.

so, now we have a mind reader in the thread, welcome....the point is that a good coach is both and should not be judged meerly by wins and loses......the people that understand the importance of the building young adults over wins are the ones that do our kids the best service....the parents that place all the value on wins are what is wrong with high school athletics.......thanks for playing

There hasn't been one poster in this thread say wins and loses are the only thing a high school coach should be judged by. The fact is there had been one poster that said repeatedly that wins and losses being considered when judging a high coach "is sad". The only thing that's sad is now you are changing your stance and admitting that winning games is more important than just getting that little green ribbon that means "thanks for playing".

My reading comprehension tells me now at 7:50pm you now are coming around to reality that wins and loses do figure into judging a coach along with off the field issues which every poster in this thread has been stating all along.


What changed throughout the day?


Did you find out that those "thanks for playing" awards that you received as a kid for finishing last in little league were worthless?
