And the plot thickens

Maybe, it was pure speculation on my part. I don't even know if she's still the AHC. I haven't been to a game this year so the rumors could be about another AHC but I doubt it.

It's amazing the politics that take place in high school sports. There was a white basketball coach at our school and there was only one white player. I won't lie, the coach was generally a terrible teacher/coach, but there were a lot of discipline issues that particular year. He was completely handcuffed and could not do anything without going through one of the vice principals, who happened to be black. His term was short and he was quickly replaced with a black coach.
Like I said, guy should have probably been replaced anyway, but when it came to kids missing practice, fighting, etc. he completely did not have the backing of the school, because the color of his skin compared to the color of the players skin. If he kicked a player off, the parent was in the office of that particular vice principal the next day and the kid was back on the team.
There were a lot of issues with white kids in other sports as well, but the way these particular events transpired, they quickly made it obvious that a white coach would not be allowed to discipline black players.
I would not be surprised if this is all BS in an attempt to get rid of the coach. I could also be wrong and the dude is a creepy perv. I just don't think anyone should jump to conclusions based on the shenanigans I've seen in the past.

I'll never understand why some a-hole spends the time to post in a thread they don't give a shite about.

You realize no one was talking about race here, right? You seem to mention it a lot.

Just seems fishy to me...
Im hearing the same. Also that this assistant is probably the one who went to the paper, which would explain how 1 sided this article is.

Have you not read the thread. Race is mentioned on almost every page. I actually don't know what is going on there. It very well could be some inappropriate stuff going on. I would actually think they would be more direct about race if they were going to go down that road. But I've seen a lot. Like I said, my dad coached for nearly 30 years. All his friends were coaches. I've been around it my entire life and have seen a lot of what public school sports politics is like and this wouldn't surprise me.
I've watched many coaches retire because they can't deal with the kids (both black and white) doing whatever they can to do whatever they want. I've seen a former teacher of mine make national news for supposed racism only to have it completely die down and go away when they realized the claims were false (but never actually got coverage for that or an apology, just a ruined name forever).
I'm not saying the race card is always invalid either. Just that it gets used in sports a lot and many times it is nonsense. White kids find their way to be little shits too, just saying minorities use the race card sometimes.

They same reason another a-hole has to reply back.

But if he thinks he is a woman....

If your story is true, then it is an isolated incident. The vast majority of head coaches in this state are white, and they tend to get along just fine with all of their athletes without race becoming an issue.
On two occasions I have seen a players/parents try that and the coach and administration shut that shite down quickly.
Rule one, don't negotiate with terrorists.

The Missouri stuff is setting a bad precedent for high school kids who do not agree with something at school. I hope the mentality doesn't become if you don't like something simply walk out and make demands. This goes for anything not just issues involving race.

If it is that coach then she felt "disrespected" by the way his hire was made.
quote:
While Anderson said he would remain out of any process to hire his replacement, he had hoped it would be someone who could work well with Dee Brown, who played a key role in directing the Spartans throughout much of his tenure. And even with the departure of her daughter, Kalani, Brown hoped to remain a big part of the program and said in March she hoped school administrators would choose someone who would be “willing to put up with me.”
quote:
Whether that’s the case with Bountovinas remains to be seen, but Brown, who chose not to be a candidate for the position, said Thursday she was not at all happy with the way she was informed of the decision. “I found out by a text message I received from the principal (Brennan McCurley) this morning,” said Brown, who wrapped up coaching Salmen’s summer league team on Wednesday night. “I responded by letting him know that I would have appreciated to have a phone call with all the time I have invested as a coach, as an assistant coach, as a person, in general, as a Salmen alum. … “I am open to anything, but if communication is going to be via text, I am not interested. If there is a situation where (Bountovinas) wants to sit down with the other coaches and myself to discuss the future, I am certain that’s something all of us would be interested in. I just feel disrespected; I cannot lie. I know what I bring to the table and what I mean to these kids.”

I've been led to believe that she's not even certified or an employee of the school.

who does this woman think she is? is she an employee of the school? is she simply a volunteer?
