@1j03y1 So the losing coach finally got fired huh...did he get arrested too? He should've been fired a long time ago...He didn't teach those girls shit in 4 years...The wrong guy got fired. I'm not surprised he's a pedo too...

[floydmayweather2929]

the other team clearly can not score a point. i guess the media wanted the first team to score on themself

[1j03y1]

The coach of the losing team just loss his job because he was having a relationship with a 17 yea told girl. His name is Andrew Lott.

[afrosoul4eva]

winning is unsportman like

[madisonheather123]

He is totally right why should he apologize for being a good basketball team?

[v1c33]

The only fault or blame that should be placed anywhere is at the person who scheduled the game. Each school district has an idea of how good each school is (ie DIVISION) so shame on the person who scheduled it. But still, firing the guy for playing basketball how it's supposed to be played..... play hard, play smart..... Some people are so quick to jump on their high horse.

[heroscaper57]

Its his fault that hes a good coach and the other team sucks

[MaxxedOutSwagg]

The school with 0 should be the embarassed ones. 

[spacitydrummer4JC]

So why exactly was he fired? I'm really confused.
