You were an assistant state championship coach. You couldn't handle the big job. Are you at that field with him coaching and teaching as you put it on a daily basis? I don't think so. And if you cared so much about the team, you wouldn't have anyone interested in the job reconsider. Maybe you didn't keep the head coach position because you had the same problem he has. Get the chip off your shoulder. You wouldn't want anyone treating your children unkind.
