Such a TPOS.

How he ever got a coaching job again in college basketball blows my mind.

I don't know what it is crazier that Bliss got another job or that it has already been 10 years. Holy shite time can move.

quote:

In May 2010, Bliss became dean of students, athletic director and head men's basketball coach at Allen Academy, a college preparatory school in Bryan, Texas.[7]

Almost immediately Bliss became involved in controversy. On November 28, 2010 it was reported by multiple news outlets in Bryan that Bliss received a two-year suspension from coaching basketball and a one-year suspension from school administration at Allen Academy by the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools (TAPPS), the largest athletic governing body of private schools in Texas. The suspension came less than a month after the start of his first season as head boys basketball coach and less than three months after joining the school in an administrative role.

TAPPS Director Edd Burleson declined to comment on the specifics of the ruling from the nine-member board, although Allen Academy Head of School John Rouse, in a letter to parents, said that Bliss had forged Rouse's signature on an approval form for a potential student-athlete. Rouse told the parents that Bliss did not deserve the suspension and announced that the school would withdraw from TAPPS, allowing Bliss to continue to coach. Allen Academy eventually joined the Texas Christian Athletic League (TCAL) and won the boy's basketball state title in Bliss' first season.


quote:

KBTX reported that Bliss had broken TAPPS rules by illegally recruiting potential players from other schools, including two senior transfers from Houston currently on the team. Both players enrolled as boarding students over the summer and were able to play on the varsity team without having to sit out the mandated one-year due to their boarding status. The news outlet also reported that the students received as much as 80% off the school's $10,000 annual tuition.

Geez. If they have a football team at this school, they should go ahead and hire Jerry Sandusky.

For as much as we throw around tPOS about other players and coaches, David Bliss legitimately personifies that term.
