Dilfer Loses His Shit

I’ve put the fear of God in my children so they’d never be in this position. Plus my older son is fat and lazy and my two alphas are too skinny. With that said, not sure how I feel about someone else throwing my kids around other than myself…
I’ll be chinteresting to see how this one plays out.

Fired in 3...2...1...

Dilfer is pretty well fucked.
Doesn't mean the kid didn't deserve the Bobby Knight treatment. Don't twist. Most of them do.

I don’t have a problem with any of it
That being said…..At the end of the day you can’t put your hands on a kid. I’m sure he’ll probably lose his job
You can see the very moment he realized it -
Yep. Hands off. That's not a rule with any real leeway. You can be a hard ass coach without physical contact anyways. Jesus. What a nut job to be that out of control pissed at someone else's kid.HuskyJW said:I don’t have a problem with any of it

Absolutely nothing wrong with that.
-
If my son was a sarcastic prick and I knew it, I’d be fine with this. Play silly games, win silly prizes.
-
He didn't hit, shove, etc. Kid was wearing pads, Dilfer guided him off the field. If this isn't no big deal, we're doomed. If the kid was a prick, I seen zero issue with this.
-
Most parents of sarcastic pricks, would not be fine with this. That’s the reason their kids are sarcastic pricks in the first place.theknowledge said:If my son was a sarcastic prick and I knew it, I’d be fine with this. Play silly games, win silly prizes.

He barely touched the kid, but will still likely lose his job over it. If my coach had to do that to me, my old man would have disassembled my ass as soon as I got home. Then he'd have put my arm back on, made me write an apology letter with it, then taken it back off and hit me with it a couple more times.

To clarify, this is a small college team he's coaching. At that level he could jump off the TV tower and give his dumbass QB the people's elbow and I'd have no issue.
Edit: nevermind, shitty source below said it was Lipscomb University, but it's actually Lipscomb Academy, a prep high school. Still, fuck them kids.

Same thing applies to dogs, kids, employees. -
You throw you hat on the ground like that, you done for a long time, if I was coach.
I don't think he did anything too wrong. I guess always be careful "touching" someone when it's heated. -
I can see (and live in) a gigantic disconnect between kids and coaches, especially coaches "of a certain age", which I am one. Kids have been empowered to show their emotions, and speak their minds. I've never laid hands on a kid in 35 years, but played for guys that had no issues grabbing your jersey or face mask to make a point with a face full of spittle, and / or then run you until you puke. Today, that is considered neanderthal behavior.
In retrospect, I can honestly say that in my "playing career" (LOL), I never initiated a conversation with a coach, ever, about anything. As Tony LaRussa said, "I've got an office, he's got a locker". Now, all I get is "my hitting / pitching instructor said..." or my favorite, "Have you seen the video on youtube?"...FML, and now Trent can "spend more tim with family"... -
Eh. He shouldn’t have grabbed him like that, of course. But also you don’t really know the context about what’s going on here, and their relationship.
Sometimes kids that get coached the hardest like that are the ones the coaches like the most and are pushing. -
I am assuming he did some sort of late hit/cheap shot type of thing.
-
I'm all for tough love when needed. I think coaches have to be given leeway to come down hard on kids where appropriate. I had a reputation as a hard ass coach when I was doing coach pitch, 9u soccer, and grade school hoops. I carried that all the way through 15 year olds in baseball and soccer. Most parents saw the method to the madness and were fine with it. Some wanted to talk things over after practice to make sure of what kind of guy I was.
I never had anyone quit on me and only a family or two who tried to avoid getting their marshmallow kid on my team again. Most were fine with it. I played bad cop and good cop as needed. Kids and supportive parents caught on and grew to appreciate and understand...follow my my rules and everything is zen.
But you can't put hands on kids, at least not in front of people. No parent is going to tolerate a coach physically manhandlinh their kid in public. I understand you guys saying there's no context, it didn't look that bad, etc and even agree. Anyone who denies that they'd react if that was their kid in the video is being dishonest though.
Hands off. You just can't break that rule. -
If that were my kid, I'd have zero issue. Push or hit, and we've got a problem. Do the same thing in a shorts-and-jersey sport, and we've got a problem. Do the same thing with an 8 year old, and we've got a problem.
A varsity football player in full gear, though? I'd be pissed off at my son if there was a legit reason for it. -
He’s not getting fired. It’s a big deal to have a former NFL QB and media personality as a high school head coach. They bent over backwards to get him there. He’s also a big Christian and at a Christian school that helps. Nobody will care after their next game or two goes off without a hitch.
That said, he went a little far. And he did play damage control after and praised the kid. And he might mean it, but he didn’t need to put hands on the kid and embarrass him. -
The dad and Trent played together in the no fun league. I’d be interested to get his take.
-
Yeah, that kind of behavior from a coach at any level is basically unprofessional. It also doesn't look good for the HC to be losing composure.
Looks like he's not used to working with kids and basically has no toolkit for dealing with insubordination.
But maybe the kid is a chronic dipshit and maybe he was fighting with a teammate, who knows.
I mean, I've fantasized about kicking teenagers' asses before so, on one level I get it.
-
he will go to diversity training, then sensitivity training, then the next time it happens he will hand the kid a bouquet. of pansies
-
Every single QB he calls to recruit from here on will wet his pants when Dilfer calls knowing much he cares about winning.
-
Dilfer? I hardly know her...
-
Dilfer needs to be fired for this. You can't push a kid in high school like that. What if he had tripped and fallen face first into a patch of Covid-19? Or even worse, a patch of Covid-19 delta variant?
-
Just looked. None of the kids around him are masked.
Doom.
