I can't imagine my assigner, his athletic director, his school principal, or our state interscholastic sports governing body, not wanting to somehow deal with that coach. All these people, in my opinion, would hold him to a higher standard, I'm just not sure that the NFHS, and the officials that officiate under those rules, would, or should, hold him to the higher standard as well.
