To the OP, personally I have never read any material or studies that lead me to believe throwing in the cold is any more dangerous than throwing in the warmth. Now in the interest of full discloser I haven't studied anything that proves it's not either lol. IMO I believe most kids would reach a point of extreme discomfort before a point of danger. I don't know if the coach is right or wrong (although I would be indoors if I had the facility) but it's not abusive.

And a far a being inquisitive about the coaches competency. Vanderbilt has a few outdoor practices every year in 30 degree weather. I don't know how competent your coach is but I have a bit of faith in coach Corbin's.
