I'm happy where I am but thanks for the offer. I've won a state championship and been in a regional championship every 3 years since the 90's. I've also coached inner city kids that were gang bangers, selling drugs living in apartments by themselves with no parents etc. So maybe you should slow your roll!
The bottom line with kids is that if you go out of your way to show them how much you care about them, when you are willing to sacrifice for them and they know it, they are going to go to war for you! Doesn't matter if they are rich, poor, city or country! I've had them all and that rule holds true! Ironically it holds true in business, school administration etc. When you treat people with respect and they know you love them they are going to work hard for you!

Congrats on your success coach! But the fact remains that these coachs are highly successful and what ever they do has produced championship results, so who are we to complain about it. If their tactics are so bad, let those with skin in the game put a stop to it. If it is so bad, why do the players stay? They stay because they respect their coaches in their own way. They know the coaches will lead them to glory on the field. How in the world can we complain with the proof right in front of us. It's a lot like going into basic training in the military. You are treated like the lowest scum for a few weeks. All you can think of is how much you'd like to shoot those rotten SOB's. But by the last couple of weeks you start to realize what it's all about and end up throwing a party and everybody pitches in to buy the drill instructors gifts of appreciation for turning them into men. I remember thinking that if the bullets start to fly, I want those guys to be by my side, leading the way.
