A good interview??? Are you kidding? No guess not., you sound serious. This man is a total POS and if you knew about him and how he operates you would understand. No he did not invent (your words) pre-first but he and his organization put pressure on parents of players to re class and this has been happening for several years. His mentality is having an older/bigger team will win more games. And do not tell me this is not true, he approached me with this re class crap three years ago when my son was in seventh grade. That was the last time he played for Crabs. I know more than several parents with the same story. This POS man is out for two things, money and winning at all cost. He is not respected in the youth lax world, he is just tolerated, nothing more. And if he decides to stay with his present team, 2021, as head coach, watch what the 2021 players do. They will leave Crabs 2021 in droves because the 2021 players hate him as a coach and as a person. Many of those players can find another strong team/club that would love to have them.
The part about the 21's is true. If he stays, they are all leaving as they hate playing for him. If he stays at 8th grade with the 22s, no new kids will go there. Catch 22
Yet proven track record, year after year, after year, after year. Must just be dumb luck that for many years every team above 7th grade magically remains among the top nationally.

Good luck continuing that with the 2022s. Why do you think he is going to stay with the 21s? He wouldn't want to take the losses that would come with the 21s. He's not a coach. If you've ever actually watched a practice he runs or watched him coach a game you know that's true. Crabs got by because all the best kids wanted to play for them. That is not the case anymore. People arent going to leave Hawks 2022 to play for Crabs. In fact, Crabs 2021 kids went to Hawks 2022 instead of playing for the Crabs 2022 team. I'm sure there will be more defections this August. The same coaches that looked great coaching the Crabs 2021 team is getting exposed coaching the 2022 team. The offense they run is a joke. Is any kid on that team better than when they started playing there 3 years ago?[/quote]
Yes. Now go do something productive, like paint the fence.
