Monroe high basketball coach may not have been problem

I cannot take credit for this quote, as it is out of “Proactive Coaching,” but it definitely speaks as to what happened at Monroe High School with the boys basketball coaching position and the firing of Coach Horner (“Monroe won’t renew contract of boys basketball coach Horner,” March 23, The Herald.)

“Avoid taking a coaching job where there has been a revolving door of coaches, (four since 2005), either you have administrators who don’t know how to hire the right people or you have administrators who hire the right people but bail out when it comes to supporting them. Many schools with a parent problem, ‘helicopter parents,’ are really just schools with administrative problems.”
