I remember hearing a great coach saying something similar at Ole Miss. He told one our star recruits (and there weren't nearly as many in those days) "you are the best player on our team, but our team is not the best with you on it." He booted the kid for repeated rules violations.

I get what you are saying, and as the JV coach I spent the previous two years doing just that.
Gotchya, was under the impression from your first post that it was your first year coaching overall.

This is very, very true. As a former youth pastor, and coach as well, I know what that can mean, and it does take courage. Parents are nightmares, and either completely disregard anything negative said to them about their kid, or their punishment for the kid is way too harsh if you have to come to them. Its a fine line to walk, and no matter what, someone will blame you for making the wrong decision.
Sorry for blasting you.

My first years as a high school varsity coach I cut the best player in the school. Kid was an absolute cancer. Dad said he was going to sue me and I just kept repeating I had 14 other kids better.
How is it brave if you had to lie to the Dad when you cut his kid? You didn't have 14 "better" players, you had 14 players with better attitudes. You're kind of a pussy for not manning up and telling him the truth.

Player was a 17 year old junior. Complete arse. Rest of the team over performed because they were free of him.
I'm confident that it wasn't due to superior coaching.

Convinced a Marine to get in a fight with a now former LSU QB. The move almost payed off too.

I fished a couple chicks out of a nasty riptide once. But I only did it on account of they were hot; I figured they'd put out cause I saved their lives.

ran towards a fire that some moron started by boiling water to melt caramel in oil. Oil was much hotter than boiling. Water boiled over and the oil then boiled over. When the oil hit the burner it spit a flame 15-20 ft in the air. I grabbed our fire extinguisher and ran to put it out.
