Message: [QUOTE="boontonbomber, post: 4329492, member: 384"] I'm old-fashioned, too, Coach. I'm very well aware of the success that you had with your wrestling teams, and I expect that the commitment that you expected from your wrestlers was one of the reasons for your success. I had expectations from my high school athletes, and some very hard lessons were learned at times. In the long run, the commitment learned by your wrestlers will be important to them throughout their lives. In this situation, the lacrosse coach missed a valuable teaching moment, and the players, not him, are the ones who missed out. Re your situation in 1988, I wonder if your 145, at some point, regretted what he did. If he did, what a hard lesson to learn, and it would be something that would stay with him for a long time.
