I'm sure your intentions are good and you are trying to find a way to make this coaching thing work, but it sounds like you are burnt out or in way over your head. I don't think you are doing those kids any favors by staying on. Perhaps it's time to take a firmer stand and hand the program over to someone else.
They asked many teachers to coach but none accepted. I didn't want to take too much time from family but they were going to cancel the season so I agreed to do it. Grades won't matter for the starting lineup anymore. I was initially shocked at the sheer number of F's but the student advisor told me that this is the case every start of the semester and by the time the end of the year comes these kids will be getting all of their assignments turned in.
