Fred,

You should as a journalist, dedicated to the truth and integrity of local sports and any affiliated reoords, check out the truth behind all of the falsehoods and lies concerning this highly controversial former coach. Just a few facts that you may have overlooked is that he deleted many losses and added on many wins to his win/loss record. He also cheated on his first of three wives for literally years and ultimately abondoned her after she suffered a complete emotional breakdown as a result of his constant cheating and abuse. He also clandestently dated the wife of another fellow coach, beat his children, verbally and emotionally abused his wife, attacked and nearly killed his own son, and verbally abused his young teenage daughter for weeks until she tried to take her own life by attempting suicide. This is just the tip of the iceberg.

You should look into this more thoroughly.
