even though he just won the championship

quote:

According to a report from The News earlier in the day, four of the seven board trustees were leaning toward firing Peterman, with Superintendent David Harris in favor of keeping the coach.


quote:

Former NFL linebacker Zach Orr, a DeSoto and North Texas alumnus, indicated people were originally skeptical of Peterman's hire because of his race. He said that seems to be the reason behind the potential change. "They act like they can't handle a white man running a predominantly black football team, which is very sad," said Orr, whose three brothers also played for DeSoto. "Me, I want what's best for the kids, our youth and our community. That's what Coach Peterman is."


Orr also tweeted out this:

As crazy as this might sound there are members on the school board who don't want Peterman because he is WHITE!! Which is sickening.

Now this is real racism, not some fake arse racism that blacks cry about.

ETA: this doesn't mean that there isn't racism towards blacks. Just a lot of "boy who cried wolf" fake racism.

And as soon as that happens he'll be hired by another school. I would hope Cedar Hill would get him (they are neighboring schools, arch-rivals, and Cedar Hill lost its coach--a multiple state winner himself--to the college ranks, what better way to stick it to the school you despise the most).

That would make for a nice lawsuit against the school board.

Local paper reported today that the board made no decision last night.

Likely will wait until things die down, then either dump him or pay some big cash settlement to leave. He finna make it rain either way.

Like mentioned the other day...it has gotten to the point that all these progressives are just trying to "one up" the last clown.

If he gets fired and handles it well it will be the best thing that ever happened to him. Mark my words. He should be PRAYING he gets fired.

Some smart TX university will snap him up as an assistant and he'll be on his way. It might happen now even if they don't fire him.

If he gets fired, can he sue the school board members individually as well as the institution?

Props to Orr for calling them out in no uncertain terms.
