<article itemscope="" itemtype="http://schema.org/NewsArticle" class="articlecontent loaded" data-aop="article"> <section class="articlebody" itemprop="articleBody" data-aop="articlebody"> A Mississippi high school girls basketball coach was hospitalized Thursday night after she was attacked by a parent, an assistant coach told WCBI-TV in Columbus, Miss.






Hamilton High coach Sue Verner was “knocked out cold,” according to assistant Steven Sims. She was taken to a hospital in Tupelo, the report said, and was conscious. Her condition was unknown as of 10:30 p.m. ET


Sims told WCBI that Verner had enforced a rule that players must ride the team bus back to the school following away games. According to Sims, the parent contested the rule, leading to the altercation. Hamilton was playing at Amory.


According to the report, the parent left the scene and police are investigating.


The boys game that followed the girls game was canceled in the first quarter after the incident.

I figured it was over playing time. Parents are much worse than they were 10-15 years ago. The insane college tuition fees makes getting scholarships high priorities for families. A long - time high school boys coach told me last week that he wished he was coaching at an orphanage school.

Yep, even if it a D 2 program that no one has heard of, in a lot of circumstances, it is about getting any kind of scholarship. And most high school coaches can't judge talent to save their lives hence parents frustrations.

Even Nick Bolaterri said, parents want their kids at his academy. It usually is not to be a 12 year pro but to get them a scholarship.

An athlete on scholarship with good grades and pretty will be making 100K barring they don't fuck up by 25. That should be the goal.

The parent will be charged with a simple assault which is a felony.
