Iowa high school coach being called a bully

[Notorious B.E.N]

Iowa football coach accused of violating school bullying policy by making players run as discipline | Off the Bench

What's wrong with our country?? This isnt the same America I was born in and im not even that old.

I cannot believe this. Some one gets their feelings hurt because they cannot follow the rules or guide lines and are forced to face the punishment. So, they decide that is the coach being a bully.... just dumb.

There's never any good talent from Iowa. It's like Tennessee. Every once in a while there's a guy that comes along that should be 3-4*, but never anything worth pursuing.

If you haven't cramped up and been dehydrated you haven't been physically and mentally challenged enough.

Anyone know Coach Nubby from Hixson in the late 80's?

Heard of him but he was before my time.

The article stated that he was suspended for the discipline handed out "among other things".

As much as I agree that the notion of him bullying the student is ridiculous, I'd like to know what the other things were.

I really can't see the "Executive Director of Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union" having the pull to get the high school football coach suspended. No matter what he thinks.

He's a face mask grabber. Spits when he talks (yells) too.

I had a coach that bullied us & other coaches too. He wasn't even the head coach.

Anyone notice how the writer of the article is the only one that used the term "bully?"

Not saying it's not silly, but you guys are getting played.

1. Several of the writers who have covered this story have stated that Mihalovich was fired because he violated school bullying AND corporal punishment regulations.

2. Not sure that the term "bully" is even key to why this whole thing is ridiculous. The coach made a player run 20 hill sprints, do 20 up-downs, and run two laps around the field. For that, along with accusations that Mihalovich fostered an environment in which profanity was used, the coach was fired.
