York Coach Out of Control!

[smallville]

Coach Ernie Winningham of the York Institute Dragons was preparing to do his regular scheduled interview of the highlights of the game that had just taken place. On his way to the booth, he came across a players father who was commenting about how his son felt about the game he had just played with another players mother. Coach Winningham proceeded to yell at the parent and ask him to "say it now" When the parent refused to follow up with his comments, the coach took it upon himself to pursue the parent and confront him in a violent manner. Coach Winningham punched the parent repeatedly in the face and proceeded to throw him into a conglomorated stack of tables. This quarrel resulted in the parent being sent to the hospital to have stitches placed in his bald head to stop the gushing blood.

 

This coach has had a violent history and after three losing seasons the community is left to wonder if he will finally be fired for his outrageous behavior....

This outfit should be FIRED as soon as they can get to it. There is not any room for behaviour like this and it should not be tolerated by the TSSAA.

Just another example how a state run high school is run with taxpayer dollars.

This is a serious situation and I am receiving emails that suggest some of the facts presented here are not complete and represent only one side of the story. I am going to close this down until more facts are known. If you have a comment or details about this then email me at coacht@coacht.com

Your statement is not true. York is a very good school. The management of York has been excellent for years. If this incedent happened the way it has been stated in the above statements, then the least of the coach's problems is getting fired.
