[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure, you are right.  He probably did pay for the upgrade on his own with all that extra money from his side hustle - selling designer inspired jewelry and private training sessions.

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]SYC parent here -  coaches are underpaid.   The parents will pay for the coaches' hotel, airfare and daily meals for tournaments.  And if you are on the top team, parents will take care of the coach so their kids can have play time.  JR the 2008 just posted on his IG he got a red Dodge Charger SRT as a rental while in GA for the Capelli showcase. He also leverage his team to promote his private training sessions.  Half the kids that sign up for his group session is on his current team and only signs up so they can have a starting position. [/quote]

I'm sure JR paid for the car on his own and if he didn't it's possible he got upgraded by rental spot.  It's not fair to assume that parents were required to pay for that.  Hotel for out of town tournaments is expected.  Meals is a maybe but not for local tournaments.  At a team dinner a coaches meal is usually covered by all the parents which doesn't come out to a more than a couple of bucks each.[/quote][/quote]

Is he not able to make money on his own time outside of the team. If he is able to run multiple businesses to increase his income why does that matter. Good for him.  Most coaches have a 9-5, his are unconventional hours.  He doesn't force anyone to buy jewelry or signup for private sessions.  I'm sure there are some of his team's players participating but it looks like most others are from other teams he has no association with. I don't see anything shady from that. Not sure why the hate.  I know a few that did his private training and seemed content. [/quote]
