Superintendents don't care about athletics. They want a steady no drama coach and if they win its a plus. Only the education matters. They want a coach that doesn't get them phone calls or surprise visits at board meetings. I love the fact that the parents on here can't name their kids 6 or 7 teachers during the SCHOOL DAY but know everything about coaches . Get your priorities straight people!
Only the education matters? Life lessons are learned in sports, not in classrooms. Education first, but athletics is a wonderful environment to learn about life. Too many maladjusted kids are leaving school without the ability to be a teammate, learn to contribute to a greater good, set goals and work hard to achieve them, etc. etc. Athletics taught me what it took to be a winner and that translated to life--college, then business. I learned how to be a winner playing lacrosse. Sorry, it's not just the education that matters.
