Several people have commented on his occupation. I have seen coaches who were teachers brought up on drug charges. Who is to say that one person who has a degree is a better person than someone who doesn't. If someone is working an honest job, and is a productive part of society who cares. I would take a janitor over several of the coaches my son has had.
This controversy was brought up by "alexanderspartan" stating that the head coach at NY "cleans up puke". The current coach at NY is also the A.D. He once was the head football coach at Alex. where he held a janitor position so as he could make ends meet and be closer to the youth. This man will do anything for the youth and I speak for many when I say that I am very thankful for all that he does. I am also very proud that he is in our school system. If this "alexanderspartan" would take the time to talk to some of the young men that played for him, while he coached at alex., he would see that they love and respect him. And probably shut him up.
