He alienated everyone in Winnfield, in particular those who pushed to hire him and tried to support him. He would not listen to supporters, school administrators; he lashed out at those trying to offer support, he was not always truthful, and simply put, was a total bust at Winnfield, a pretty storied program for a small, backwoods sawmill town. He tried to do things Winnfield had no capablility of doing with the talent and personnel they had. No one was sad to see him leave, no one. After burning every bridge he crossed and many before he crossed them, he found reason to blame everyone but himself.

I actually know the guy and grew up with him and he is a great guy.
As far as the Winnfield deal, he tried to take a running team and make it an exclusively passing team in one year. He did not have the personnel to make the move that quick and the kids really did not understand the offensive scheme and the team lost confidence in themselves. As far as him not "telling the truth" it does not sound like the guy I know.
As far as coaches listening to supporters etc... You show me a coach who changes everything that someone tells him to change and I show you a coach who loses every ballgame.
Coaches have a plan and they have to stick to it.
