discuss-- coach's misogynist book: fireable?

[ttt]

I would not want my daughter within 1000 of this man.

I'll need more information. Like if he used his position to get the book published, if he has connected the book with the school, etc.

Is this passage indicative of the fact that he's a racist, misogynist, complete waste of a human being? Yes.

Is it indicative of the fact that he's a bad basketball coach? Not necessarily.

It also depends on how one sees a coach - as someone who develops one's skills as an athlete or as an all-around role model and surrogate parent/teacher.

Having relationships with 14 year old girls doesn't necessarily make him a bad basketball coach either. But that doesn't mean it's OK.

He has made his misogynistic views of women and girls clear, and as a parent of two girls, I would NOT want my daughter around this man. If my daughter were on his team, I would pull her off.
