There is more to the story here, keep in mind that only information we have on why the coach was fired (the essential question) is from the coach himself, recounting what he was told in a meeting. Of course it would be in his best interest to relate the things that make the firing seem petty and keep the possibly more serious issues under wraps.

This is an epidemic. I bet most of us could mention a local coach who was fired because an administrator refused to stand up to a whiny parent or three.

I see a lot of one-sided and non-credible information here.

We shouldn't be surprised. This is the culture we've made....and far outside of basketball. Too many people believe it is other people's responsibility to make their life better and complain as a way to get things their way instead of working for it.
