OK, respect starts at home, I get that. But how can a Coach not demand respect of his players. I don't completely support the thoery that coaches can't do anything in 2 - 2 1/2 hours that they have these kids. How hard is it to either not take a player, or sit them on the bench. If a player does not respect the game or those in which he is playing for, then it's obvious to me that the coach is concerned that if he sits that player, then his chances of winning are reduced? So, a coach decides to let disrespectful players continue to play because that's better than losing?

Tell that to Carr of Scott HS, Code of Campbell County, Listerman of Cov Cath. The whole thread about untucked Jersey's, that does not happen with these coaches.

The coach is paid to do what? Win or provide discipline? So, do we give the freedom to a coach to have the strength to take action against those type of players or does he have to worry about the administration and the parents when "Joe Superstar" sits because he mouthed to a ref would not tuck in his Jersey?
