BigG, i recently posted a topic asking what other players though of my performance this year and what i could do better on. Some people had nothing good to say and basically just cut me down, but others had positive words and some constructive critism that helped me. My topic was closed and i was just wondering why?

It was getting ugly, and going downhill fast. I also think you can find a better medium for evaluating yourself than on a public forum. Ask a club coach to come and watch, or some of your team mates, even an opposing coach... You were asking for trouble as soon as you opened up a thread about yourself (like moth to a flame was bashing heading your way) Just trying a little prevent defense.

The feelings recommendations expressed here also need to be followed by parents at the field.  Saw a parent berating the opposing team and coaches after a loss at the state tournament yesterday. Calling the boys 'fagots' and refusing go away as they tried to conduct their post-game meeting.  Behavior like this is never acceptable no matter how passionate you are at the moment. I will not call the school out here but the principal, atheltic director, coach, and tssaa will be informed by letter.  Please make sure not to embarrass your kids and ruin your school's reputation with such immature outbursts. Thanks.

    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job. 
    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf  
    • The administration took the path of backing the coach and whispering to people that the kid was a problem. The reality is that the kid was never a problem on a team or classroom. The player says she has witnessed who back her not saying the f-word.  Why did the coach make that story up and other stories? I am not Sigmund Freud and do not have an answer for the ex=-coach's behavior..
