As a coach, what do you do?
THe Star of the team has been seen bad mouthing and cussing his peers.
he has been seen by the HC and others have brought it to the HC's attention.
do you tell- a) him to quit being a jerk. b) the HC...that it dosnt make for a good team to have a divided team c) let the guy who is a jerk hang himself....eventually somethign will be done
other suggestions??
BTW- what if the "STAR" is an Asst coach....not a kid???
thoughts.
thanks

I maintain that no player is bigger than the Team. You seem to be able to understand that though maybe the head coach cannot. I think you have an obligation to talk to the HC about it.
The only person you're going to be able to please in this situation is the man in the mirror. If the man in the mirror will feel better by getting it off his chest to the HC, then he should do it. Whether the HC acts on it or not is up to another man and another mirror.

I'd confront him in the office about it (cussing another coach in front of the kids), and if he ever did it to me I'd knock his head off.

First off...who is this other coach who got cussed in front of the kids and what did he say about this incident? How did he handle it? I can tell you now, I would not handle it very well. I would handle it professionally, and have the confrontation in the coach's office, but no 2 ways about it, it would be a confrontation. If it's a player, then I look first to his position coach. If he cannot resolve the issue, then I look to the Coordinator. If he cannot resolve it then I look to the HC. The way I handle all issues dealing with a player is by making the whole team run. Last week we ran a 40 yd ladder because one of our freshman mouthed off to his history teacher. 60 guys ran because of one freshman...they weren't happy. If that were to happen to a coach, $20 the kids shut him up before he steps over the line and if they didn't, I'd make that 40 yd ladder seem like a warmup. You will eventually find their breaking point. If it's a coach to another coach...then I can't hardly respect the coach who got cussed not handling it. I'm not saying there has to be a fight, but he should stand up for himself. this is the jist of it. Coach A has been a jerk to several coaches on staff....but nothing too bad. At the 2nd game of the Season. Coach A got into an arguement with Coach B. Some harsh words were used...but that is life....Coach B called Coach A off to the side...so kdis couldnt here....it got a little worse. same game: Coach A cusses Coach C and Coach C took it...so as to not cause a scene on the sidelines. Coach C - has not confronted Coach A nor told the HEad Coach....BTW coach A was on the HEad sets and was heard ripping Coach C pretty good. I am just looking to see what yall think. thanks
