[QUOTE="The Dave, post: 1435652, member: 622843"] When I played jr/high school ball back in the 80's, if you didn't pay attention in practice, the next thing you knew, a basketball was nailing you in the side of the head (thrown by the head coach). While that seemed normal back then, its way over the line in retrospect. THAT is unacceptable coaching, not yelling at guys on the sideline for stupid mistakes. If BU sat each player down and spent 15 minutes patting them on the back and calmly explaining what they did wrong and and giving them 5 different options for better approaching the situation the next time it arises then everyone on this board would be screaming about how he needs to show some passion and toughen these kids up. Bottom line, what he's doing is NOT over the line (in most, but not all, peoples opinion I would imagine) and winning cures all. [/QUOTE]
