Coaches hold what is a parental responsibility, almost. They are tasked with creating and fostering a positive environment for growth, learning, and maturing. When something like this happens under your watch, it should be alarming. And yes, it should be considered that you have potentially failed that child. A responsible coach would not just chalk it up to a kid being 'crazy'. Something deeper is at the root.

Would you say that Skip failed Albert Bell? Sometimes a guy is a lost cause no matter what the coaches do for him.

"Under your watch"? You don't know much, if anything at all, about the environment in our school systems today. No teacher, coach, or school administrator has the responsibilities of a parent. There are 1000's of legal decisions covering just this issue. In today's sad world of education, no employee in the school system wants anything to do with sharing parental responsibilities. That's a very deep, dark rabbit's hole for any school employee.

Are you a parent Lester? I am. Four kids. I had a lot of levers to pull to raise my kids. I could take away TV, control what they ate, where they slept, whether they could play with their friends. Hell, I could whip their arse if I thought it was appropriate. Plus the coach is with the kids maybe 12 hours per week and he has about 30 kids during that time. No coach has anything like the control a parent has. You can't blame a coach for how a kid turns out. That's Hillary Clinton level takes-a-village bullshite!

BS Lester. You are reaching. Why do we have some many in prison then? Lots of folks tried to help those people, but ultimately they made their own choice. Coaches can only do so much. My parents had way more influence on my character than my coach. He played a role, but no where near what my family did. No justification to pull a knife on a coach. None.

goodness you have some horrific takes sometimes. it's almost unbelievable except it is you, so maybe it shouldn't be so unbelievable.

there's something really wrong and disturbing when a kid is pulling a knife on anyone. get real trying to place blame on the coaches.

are you in this young man's life or the coaches involved? if not, you shouldn't be judging a situation you likely know nothing about.

tell me this then, how many other players have pulled knives on these coaches? if the environment is so bad surely he can't be the only one. if it's the coaches failing him then surely they must have failed the others.
