Player entitlement? Is coach entitlement really better?
Hypocritical to lecture about lack of toughness and responsibility in players when you're making $900k or more largely off of their efforts and commitment (and ability to go practice for the team good, when you could go study and improve your grades). Trade your $900k salary for what coaches used to make in the 70s and we'll talk).

We all change with the times or get left behind. As a HS coach, I KNOW there are plenty of great kids today.)
