Coaches should be accountable








AHSAA should have suspended Clark because he is the man in charge of the team whose coaching staff made the comments. If he did it himself, as at least one game official maintains, he certainly should be suspended.

By acting only against students and schools, AHSAA sends the message that it is an old-boy network that will let coaches get by with behavior that would get any other public employee fired.

AHSAA should look closely at its policies to ensure that coaches are being held to at least the same standards as players and schools. In fact, they should be held to much higher standards than players. Based on this situation, that does not appear to be the case.
Both head coaches and the princple should have been punished.
