The interests of the coach/lawyer, school and player/client are the same; they all are seeking the same resolution .. that Mayo play, there is no "conflict".
Not true. If an attorney has an interest in the matter then there is a conflict. Being on the same side as the client is does not mean there is no conflict. The only way the attorney can proceed to represent a party in this situation is for all client/parties (player/coach/school) to waive the conflict. As soon as there is a conflict between any two of the client/parties, the coach/attorney will need to withdraw.
