It's the same kind of battles just in a different place. The coaches seem to be a more close-knit group than in 4A or 5A.

I have never coached because of money, but they've been more than fair with me. That was definitely a factor for me.

I think this is ridiculous. I think (certain district officials) just want to get rid of me. . . . It's horrifying that this can happen. I've never, never, never been accused of anything like this. Never.

It kind of takes me back to my roots.
