[Pulp Fiction]

I personally heard Coach Smith state that he made the Johnson Central player shake his hand by grabbing his hand and telling him that he would shake. For an administrator, teacher or coach to initiate contact by force with a student is beyond professionalism and without excuse. As a coach, if a player is overcome with emotion (because they are kids) and does not want to shake hand, you pass them and proceed to the next kid. I will say that I have the utmost respect for the kid's father because he handled the situation much better that I would have and also after tonight I have zero respect for Frankie Smith. This one event led to the confrontation of other coaches and to the adults from Sheldon Clark coming behind our bench to run their mouths.

Thank you THOMCAT for posting that!
