Kids have always been soft. Parents just allow them to make soft choices now instead of holding them accountable more in this generation.

My Dad told me (and the school) that from 8-3:30 I belonged to the school. From 3:30 to whenever practice was over I belonged to my coach. I may be biased, but I think that was and is the way it should be. Barring anything drastic or unethical of coarse.

MV head coach is removed this week, someone else moved up. 

Also when the Malakoff stream announcers are able to predict plays 30 seconds in advance from MV for an entire quarter that is definitely not setting them up for success. 

I still wouldn't play those kids that quit. MV just dug themselves a deeper hole than they think. Hope they got a checkbook out.

But do we KNOW if they will be playing? Would change the way Commerce plans for the game. This isn’t the NFL with mandatory personnel announcements, but a heads up could be quite helpful and go along with the sportsmanship the UIL likes to talk about.

From what I heard they were. This game doesn't really mean anything for Commerce other than win or lose to them

When you lose 17 kids off your roster, I would imagine its tough to call a diverse playbook. This isn't Madden, the kids plugged into positions have to know what to do. Not to mention against a defense like Malakoffs.

Except it was about the same all year even with a full roster

Plus I wouldn't base anything off what Joey from Tiger sports network says. He's said some stuff about what the tigers should do and it's came back on him. Lol

whether the coach was out of line and terrible to play for or not, MV just set the precedence that the kids and parents will run things. Admin will give the complainers their wants

Surely they won't let the kids that quit come back and play right? How is that fair to the kids that stuck around when times were tough? Anyone have some real info on that part of this situation?

From a MV poster from the app, it's being said that they will be allowed back. Maybe @MattStepp can confirm this. All of this has been said this morning.

Good luck hiring anyone worth anything if and when this job comes open. Who wants to work somewhere that if enough complain, they will get their way.

They set that precedence in MV well before the kids in that school were even born.

The bad apart about this some of these MV folk thinks it's fine what they did.

Society is like that everywhere now. Throw a fit to get what you want by any means necessary.
