I've seen enough basketball coaches now and from what I've seen if you as a coach are not upset/disappointed with your players when they are performing poorly, it usually means one of the following:

1. The talent doesn't exist on the team - so what is there to get upset about, OR
2. You are coaching for the wrong reasons (only looking out for your own players' son/daughters development and not overall team success), OR
3. The coach doesn't want to "piss off" a star player by educating them about player mistakes (the star player should seek out feedback)

I'm sure there are other reasons but these came to mind immediately..


Such nonsense. A coach is an adult and should act like one. Stop coddling and excusing these pathetic man babies. Sorry your kids have had such losers as coaches.


I'm noting what I've observed in the 15 years now of going through multiple teams and coaches for all my kids. Watching March Madness now ... would love to see actual examples of D1 coaches that you describe. If you're only focusing on REC/HOUSE, then we're not in the same league. You can have the soft-spoken coaches


Unless you’re watching your kids playing in March Madness right now, I’m unimpressed.


LOL because if my kids played ANYWHERE ELSE they are pathetic losers.

Give me a break. There’s a difference between being “upset or disappointed,” and completely losing your cool so much so that you get almost thrown out or thrown out of the game. Don’t give men an excuse to blow up and act like it’s because they have more at stake.

Our PPA Premier hoops coach is actually quite cool, calm and collected. He got a little fired up on a few bad calls last tourney, but he is a breath of fresh air compared to all the yelling dads.

The 10th grade will have a decent coach. Young guy with no kid on the team and has been around basketball most of his life

CYA isn’t a good basketball organization. You may luck up and get on a decent team but chances of that aren’t good.

I wouldn’t judge a coach by how well he did at CYA. It’s just not fair if that’s what you have to work with.


Rephrase: He had a super short fuse and was a bad coach.
