No, demeaning someone is abusing someone. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and believe you meant that there is a difference between...
But while you are at it... please provide your definition of abuse. What is abuse in coaching? Go ahead and skip the "physical abuse" or "sexual...
You, sir or ma'am, are out of touch. The "way kids are these days"? Haha. You literally have no idea. Our girl has had some really GREAT coaches...
I don't think it's entirely unexpected. We've known a few of the ladies on current and prior rosters and haven't heard a lot of great things about...
And that question is similar to the suggestions in the Yates report. I think of it as pushing it off to someone/somewhere else so they can wash...
I think the prior poster is referring to TA, the HC at Miami around 2012. He was known throughout FL to be verbally abusive on and off the field....
Whispers makes a fair point. Even if feedback is delivered in an "empathy burger" or the "pro con con pro" model, many people, not just athletes,...
I agree with CollegeWhispers about UMKC likely being safe. Results aren't there but coach has been rather vocal publicly so I feel like she may...
While I like the O-State and Alabama wins, I think it's too early to see the seat cool down. I don't think we can get excited with regional wins...
Also consider that she's starting her second year of her Master's program. Between her Master's, surgery, coaching changes, life updates, etc......
Since Gough has now been named, I will vouch for him. I know him and his family personally. My kid played for him. He is publically vocal about...
Speaker makes a valid point. As a woman, I always preferred male coaches, just as in my professional environment, when I have reported to a...
I read a blog from TheHiddenOpponent, its basically a group that promotes mental health among student athletes and uses actual student-athlete's...
My girls individual team meetings always have HC and AC present with a closed door. Girl isn't sure why AC is present because AC never says...
Sweetie. Let me see if I can define this in woke terms. You defined misogyny. You dismissed me as a woman. You dismissed my experience as a woman....
A female supporter of misogyny? Oh that's rich dude. Go ahead, define woman at this point.
You're fine, my guy. I promise, most girls, this 40 something year old one here, honestly does not care.
Not sure if I'm the only female here but... it's all about context. I don't know one female that is offended by the term "girl". If one implies...
From her UCLA bio: ' Her mother played on the University of Georgia’s women’s soccer team, and her father played on Georgia’s football team'
I empathize with you. I wasn't happy when the extra eligibility was granted to 5th years. On my daughter's team, all but one returned as a 5th...
Not a HC move but Bryan Blitz is headed to Washington State as an AC. Kinda amazed that he accepted an AC position. Was he forced out of Mizzou?
Totally agree with you but the same can be said with the cold and ice. Is there a reason in the offseason to be on a turf field that you had to...
Eh. Yes, cold has an impact on muscle injuries but heat and humidity is a different beast especially if the playing surface is turf. August is a...
Question for those in the know with the UWS, WPSL, etc leagues. In my experience, each club that we have been apart of or watched locally has...
