Do you realize how pretentious that sounds?

 

Do you know the guy? Have to spoken with him? Have you played for him? To judge whether or not a man is a "good person" based on one instance is poor.

 

As someone else said, reading the people who are coming to his defense tells me all I need to know about him, my experience with him not even being considered.

Let me say this--everyone knew about this trouble with the missing funds since February. I would dare say the coach had plenty of time since that point to find another job. It appears to me that it is somewhat unfair to the kids for him to leave with only 6 weeks to go before the season started. This has nothing to do with him being a "good person" --maybe just a good coach. If he cared so much for the team, perhaps he should have resigned after school was out, so that the administration would have had more time to find another coach. I hear, however, that we have gotten someone really special with this new coach hired. I wish him and the rest of the Tigers much good luck in the upcoming year.

If you had lived in our town and had the coach and his family put on a pedestal, as they were here, you would understand the reasons for my post. By the way, I don't know where you live, but stealing is a crime everywhere, even Lexington and Huntingdon. It is not an obsession--just thankful for once that someone was pulled off that pedestal a little. If I had done the crime, I would have already been doing the time.

What ever happen to his wife.
