how come he isnt in jail?

Pretty sure me and him both would be in jail

Been Coaching kids since 1980 and an Athletic Director since 2007. I will tell you he is not a coach!

Wonder if that was his own kid,,not that that's an excuse.Just sayin if the dad was there,,I think the video would have been longer !!

And you know he will stay the coach
Guess why?

He is being charged. Surprisingly, the mother of the kid did not want charges to be pressed against the coach.

Ya, that’s a good role model and example for our youth. What a man

I'm not defending the coach. The mom probably knows her kid needed a handful of act right after what he did on the field and probably at home. I didn't see what happened on the field but I guess the kid did something blatant.

I’m not defending the coach either. There is absolutely no justification for him punching a kid like that regardless of what the kid did. The fact that the culture of the associated people are willing to dismiss it speaks volumes of the character that will built in these youth. And that character will be missing in respect.

I would of put money on the coach being the kids dad. Travel sports parents have a different mindset than most of your local sports parents or that video would of ended differently.

I don’t care if he’s the kids brother. It’s absolutely Inexcusable. He’s supposed to be an adult and it’s a child

besides the kids parents.....why would ANY OTHER ADULT stand by and let that happen? I have shut up other coaches for just cussin their team.

Assault.

He belong behind bars for that

I would hope so. Hard to watch.

The other coach should be held accountable too for not protecting the youth at least after the first encounter and while shite for brains is still having his tantrum. .

Pretty bad deal all around.Jerk wad needs his arsekicked and cant believe some one there didn't accommodate him.

I don't care what the kid did on the field,,that POS coach needs a tune up.

The point was...I officiate a lot of youth sports. The worst abuse from coach and players at that level is almost always a parent in my experience.

Glad the state is charging the coach. He's a sheriff's officer so the judge will likely mention his service to the community as a reason for a lenient sentence. The other coaches who watched approvingly should be fired.
