Highlands coach upset with people hiding behind a computer, sending anonymous emails

Quote from head coach Brian Weinrich:

"Our guys did what real men do," Weinrich said. "When you have adversity, you don't sit around and make a bunch of excuses, hide behind a computer, send anonymous emails. You're a real man and you wake up in the morning, work and you fix the problems."

Highlands-Boone County Game Story

Seems like there are a lot of outside distractions in Ft. Thomas right now.

WOW! Sounds like some parents don’t understand what the coaches have to deal with.

I don't know what all the coach had to deal with, but the people behind the computers here on BGP appear to have been right on point. They have been asking on here for some time for certain players to play both ways and to get offensive reps, and that is exactly what the coaches did this week.

I have always thought Coach Weinrich gets caught up way too much in outside distractions like this.

It tells me a couple of things: those "anonymous emails" get traction with the Highlands powers that be and/or Coach Weinrich needs to grow some thicker skin and shut those type of distractions out.

Love it.

I totally agree: when my SON tells me to stop posting I will stop. It comes with the territory coach.

Your son tells you to criticize his coach on a message board?

Maybe but I love it when coaches address the naysayers instead of ignoring it. Everyone can talk crap but him? Nah. Tell us how you feel, Coach!

Yep. I’d acknowledge the naysayers and tell them where they could put it.

Not what I said at all...Really? My son plays on a football team. If I had to criticize my son’s coach I would which I will never have to. Comes with the territory is my SOLE point.

Public criticism goes with coaching HS football. Absolutely. But, if a coach chooses to address it the way Coach Weinrich did, he has the right to do so.

And, he didn't say he was upset with the anonymous emailers & those that make excuses. He just described how he believed real men respond to adversity. AND, he was bragging on his players for being real men.... outstanding!

To me, he contrasted how those "in the arena" respond to adversity versus those who are not..... and did it pretty well!

If it takes that criticism for changes to be made then so be it. Not sure why it has taken so many years for it to happen, but it has and hopefully it sours the troops on going forward.

Why do you think anything you have to say about the football team should carry ANY weight?

No he has not, and Coach Eviston is one of my best friends. You have WAY too much time on your hands.
