Smells like a "parent v. coach" confrontation that didn't get out of hand, but STARTED out of hand. Popcorn is heading for the microwave now.

From what I gather, something was said in the locker room after their loss Friday night that probably would have been a non-issue from 10-15 years ago, but not in 2017.
Where does NL go from here?

Heard the same thing sportsfan. Guy used a metaphor in the locker room and it offended the wrong people. Sign of the times.

Will be interesting to see who the next hire is. I've always thought NL has the talent in the school to compete in the FC.

What a pack of creampuffs! Whatever happened to keeping "in-house talk" in the house? I understand these aren't adults, but their not kids, either. After the last two beatdowns, where do they find the nerve to show their faces, much less blab about the ecperience? |

He told the team he would only take 4-5 of them to war with him and shoot the rest? I’m pretty sure that’s worth getting let go of over. How did no one else post this by now?

Must not be too bad, he's still teaching, right? Yes, he's still teaching. Does that mean what was said is less detrimental to the kids he said it to? I guess the question would be is it right to tell students you're going to shoot them? I don't think it sends the right message to the younger minds influenced by him. Especially in a world where kids bring guns to schools and gun violence/ gun threats/ gun references seem so prevalent. Either way, better approaches were/are available but I guess it's a matter of opinion. I just hope he minimally apologized to the kids that didn't appreciate the comment. |

Maybe a slap on the wrist but to lose his job over it? There has to be more to it than that.

Who was the Norwalk Reflector sports reporter for this game? Maybe it wasn’t the kids that reported it after all. Did you notice how the reflector tried to make it a story before it was a story?

The "more to the story" is that they weren't good and he was likely to be relieved of his duties after week 10. New London has the athletes walking the halls, just need to get someone in there that they want to play for... |

Maybe Bighass knows more but I would agree it may be best to let them handle this in house and move on. Just hope a lesson can be learned from all of this. |

Well it just happen, New London just hired themselves a coach. They hired Mr. Keys, I don't know his first name, but he I believe was a Assistant Coach from Sandusky Sr. I would let you know more as soon as I get it.  |

New coach is Kemmes Keys, who I believe has a step-son on the team. Has been on staff at Sandusky in recent years.
