tmmbj--I guess another question to address is what is your agenda here. Are you trying to gather support or opinions to confront the coach, or looking for support to bolster your position regarding the coach. I also find it hard to fathom that a high school coach,or any coach for that matter, seriously says he is not going to instruct a player. What will practice consist of then--rolling balls out for the kids to figure out what to do with??? Hitting ground balls with no feedback??? etc. I think we are missing a large part of the whole story here.
Where is Paul Harvey when you need him?
