OSG High: Coach Suspended For Cemetery Trip After Loss

((HT: WSYR-TV Syracuse))

The HQ is well aware of the idea of inspiring the players that coaches have under their charge... especially after a loss...

But a trip to a cemetery... and telling your kids to lie down on the ground...???

That's a bit much... even for the HQ's tastes...

A JV coach outside of Syracuse, New York is suspended for half of the remaining schedule for having his kids do just that.

"The players were directed to lie down, looking toward the sky, in a grassy area between two rows of grave markers and headstones,”
Craig Tice, Marcellus Superintendent said.

The coach said, in an apology, that he was trying to reference "Remember The Titans" with the action...

Here's the latest...


The coach's money that he would have gotten for those games is now being donated to the cemetery...

Yeesh... creepy...
