Tim -- Once again, you come on here to put me down, for something I didn't say or even imply.

I simply think the guy's a whiner. So what if the girls do better than he does? He's still a top coach with a top program. It just seems really small-minded to have to beat the girls, just because they're girls.

The girls do get more money because they work harder to raise it. The girls' coach for 20 years or so set out to have a top program in the nation and he spent his entire adult life working toward that goal. He's a very likeable, energetic guy with a passion, who attracted lots of parents and community people to help him. And his early success attracted more people. And he got lots and lots and lots of girls into college scholarships.

The guy in the OP is a growling grouch who is very hard to even talk to about anything. Even so, he's probably a good coach, although if my son wanted to play basketball, OC would be the last place I'd want him. The guy is too hard on his players IMO, and I don't think his hostility to the world at large is a good way to approach life. Especially when it includes needing to be better than "the girls".
