My daughters boyfriend (a sophmore) played and started as point guard for the varsity team at the local high school last year. He is a humble and very quiet individual. Here is the problem, last years coach quit and a new one was hired for the coming basketball season. He scheduled 48 games for the varsity summer league, which I thought was a bit much. When it came to conditioning the new coach started one month earlier than last years coach. He requires that all players run the mile in less than 6 minutes. This is just one issue with his conditioning rituals. He takes after school time into the evening for practice. My daughters boyfriend approached the coach and asked if he could have some time to do his homework and the coach basically said your only young once and if you can't take it goodbye. So my daughters boyfriend quit the team. I think this is a waste of talent.
Does anyone have any comments on this?
