Hard to see how any of those email comments could be interpreted any differently in any sort of context. he did not conduct himself appropriately. Good that his true character was revealed sonner than later.

He apparently sent an email to the parents of his club claiming that the email was distorted to exaggerate things.

LOL. He threatens a kid for daring to leave for a different club, and that is somehow not his fault? Nobody should put their kid in his program - look at how the kid/family is viewed as property.

"Less than cordial email"? (!) That is like saying Mr. and Mrs. Lincoln had a "less than pleasant evening" at Ford's Theater. He emailed a 13-year old boy directly and called him a quitter, and said his former teammates were looking forward to trying to injure him in a game. He emailed the parents that he intended to blackball the youngster from playing college lacrosse.

Sure, the parents in this case could and should have responded sooner to his emails instead of just leaving them dangle. But then again, it sounds like they had to do a lot behind the scene first to deal with the fallout of this nut.



No. The parents and son left the program AFTER the season ended, not in the middle. They did nothing wrong.

Coach is in his early 40's. I just think his professional maturity never occurred.

Yes, they beat Madlax by a comfortable margin. Ryan played as he always does. Well.

He is a coach, which is *low priority* when it comes to email reply time in our house. My kids know sports is a hobby and that school comes first. I don't care if it lets the team down. Sports don't matter.


That's your house. But it's clear from the dad's reply that sports is important in their house.

I thought this was before the summer tournaments started, not midseason. I didnt read anything to indicate the player was shirking a duty. Dont numerous players make changes at this time?
