We had the same thing happen at our HS, the coach was a good guy and knew how to play the game but he sucked as a head coach but was a good assistant coach. You can get him removed if all parents stick together as we did and met with the principle and athletic director with several pages of concerns about the program. He was asked to step down which he did and the next coach that they hired won a state championship the next year with the same players and assistant coaches. We never made the playoffs with the other coach. It takes a special person to be a good head coach and when you get one you better pay them well or they will leave and go somewhere else.

It took 14 comments, but proud to see the only proper answer.

I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I was a high school coach and worked with many coaches in various sports over a span of nearly 30 years. I hate to make this statement, but in my opinion, there are not a whole lot of completely competent coaches at the HS level. Don’t get me wrong, I have worked with some great ones but they don’t come along very often. Many of these individuals are really good people. They are simply not qualified and experienced enough in the sport they are coaching. A good coach needs to have played the sport he/she coaches, (I know there are exceptions ), to get a better feel of the game. He needs to be a good motivator, knows how to deal with parents, needs to practice and prep for games properly, and needs to be able to deal with a vast variety of personalities. A degree in the scientific principles of coaching and administration and supervision of athletic sports is helpful as well.

But there are definitely exceptions to that rule about having played the sport you are coaching as you said. I coached with 2 HOF high school coaches, and they could win at anything. Some guys kids just love to play for and they can squeeze every last drop of talent out of a player. These guys could have coached the middle school girls swim team having never learned to swim, and won. Then I also coached with a guy who knew a crap ton about X’s and O’s But couldn’t coach to save his life.

The head football coach at Mississippi State that passed away last year, never played football. He was extremely smart and had great charisma amid people skills. You also mentioned another area that I failed to mention. (The coach that has all the knowledge in the world but no head coaching skills).
