He applied for a bunch of on field passes for program boosters, people that were giving money to him, for the championship game in the Dome. His bosses told him they didn’t want people on the field just because they gave money to the program. They ordered him to withdraw the pass applications.

Come game time, the boosters were on the sidelines. People asked the administration about it and they called the Coach in on it. He basically said “I went ahead and got them passes.” So they fired his arse.

Whether you think the boosters should be on the field or not, when the boss says not to do something and you do it anyway... well... you get fricking fired.

Kind of a dumb thing to get fired over, or fire someone for.


Sounds like he was the frickin man and some dumb cunt didn’t get the D, so he got fired.

That’s not what the article said.

It said he withdrew the passes and the boosters got their passes through another venue.

And some much bigger school with a much bigger bank roll will have no problem giving him as many field passes as he wants to take over their football program.

I heard it’s over a little more than just field passes. I’ve got family in that area who I’m using as my Chick-fil-a sauces

true, but that goes to show you how fricked up the admin is there. Also, I have heard plenty of other stories about how fricked up the admin operates that school

If this is, in fact, what happened then the coach should have been disciplined. But if this was a first offense on his part, then I think firing him is going way overboard.

Why are there boosters for HS football ? I can see snoop Dogg hanging on the field with Reggie Bush or Pete Carroll .
