Only the parents seem to care and then again only at some schools. IF a coach is fired its not because of wins and losses. It's because of a failing in one of the objectives that the administration has for the experience of the boys. In each case of a coach being let go, I'm sure there were instances where issues that had nothing to do with wins and losses began to wear out the coach's support from the AD and rest of the administration.


Sez the hypocritical ultra liberal. Every district has their own athlete code of conduct and in many instances there is verbiage put in place to prevent this nonsense that school sports are non competitive. On the contrary many districts flat out tell you playing time and team membership is at the sole discretion of the coach and don't bother complaining.
