Dilfer Loses His Shit

If that were my kid, I'd have zero issue. Push or hit, and we've got a problem. Do the same thing in a shorts-and-jersey sport, and we've got a problem. Do the same thing with an 8 year old, and we've got a problem.

A varsity football player in full gear, though? I'd be pissed off at my son if there was a legit reason for it.
 
He’s not getting fired. It’s a big deal to have a former NFL QB and media personality as a high school head coach. They bent over backwards to get him there. He’s also a big Christian and at a Christian school that helps. Nobody will care after their next game or two goes off without a hitch.

That said, he went a little far. And he did play damage control after and praised the kid. And he might mean it, but he didn’t need to put hands on the kid and embarrass him.

Yeah, that kind of behavior from a coach at any level is basically unprofessional. It also doesn't look good for the HC to be losing composure.

Looks like he's not used to working with kids and basically has no toolkit for dealing with insubordination.

But maybe the kid is a chronic dipshit and maybe he was fighting with a teammate, who knows.

I mean, I've fantasized about kicking teenagers' asses before so, on one level I get it.

 
he will go to diversity training, then sensitivity training, then the next time it happens he will hand the kid a bouquet. of pansies
 
Every single QB he calls to recruit from here on will wet his pants when Dilfer calls knowing much he cares about winning.

Dilfer needs to be fired for this. You can't push a kid in high school like that. What if he had tripped and fallen face first into a patch of Covid-19? Or even worse, a patch of Covid-19 delta variant?
