[QUOTE="IllinoisssssssVarsity, post: 1808243, member: 747262"] I get the sentiment to maybe want to fire him because his contract is so ridiculous, but I think this is spot on. As a coach when you’re players do stupid stuff, you feel guilty because you often reflect on your own practices: could I have done something better? Did I miss something? Etc etc. But on the other side you also feel betrayed. You talk to your players about having character, integrity, and doing the right thing. You try to incorporate good life lessons into your coaching. The problem is, a team is still made up of individual humans, some of whom will just do stupid things when presented the opportunity. You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink. [/QUOTE]
