The players were put out of the weight room AGAIN yesterday before their lineman coach could get there. He tries to work with them some extra after school twice a week after he gets off work. The defensive coach wouldn't stay with the players that extra 20 minutes until the lineman coach can get there. He locks the weight room and makes them leave the field. I know these kids would love to have the opportunity to get stronger and to work hard together and become a team but you can't wait until July to start.

So if I understand your post correctly: a coach was present for the normal weight lifting session. When it was over and the kids were finished with their normal weight lifting session, the last coach there had to leave. Another coach was going to come later to allow some kids that wanted to stay longer keep lifting. But the other coach couldn't stay there (for reasons not disclosed on here) long enough to wait for the coach on his way. If my understanding is correct, seems like the normal weight lifting session occurred and no one is waiting until July to start. But perhaps I misunderstood your post.

Folks, I have no idea what's going on in Cougar land, but I do know there is a smart way to go about making change and there is a way that does more harm than good. Complaining about problems in your program on message boards does more harm than good in my observations over the years. Seems like there are enough disgruntled fans and parents posting on here to arrange a meeting with the Coach, the AD, the Principal and/or the Super and have some changes made. With all the transfer happening these days, Principals and Supers worry about lost ADA money.
