About tomorrow. How about we come together tomorrow? @GovWhitmer @MDHHS_Director Instead of publically making KIDS do 100's of press and TV interviews talking about their mental health and well being we end this madness TODAY. As adults.....Let's do the right thing for kids.

First...It was a major spike coming after Thanksgiving. Then...It was a major spike is coming after Christmas & New Years. Now... The "new variant" is going to crush MI when all other states have not altered their strategy. When is it going to stop! Never unless we demand it.

Something is not adding up. Football teams (40-50 Players) practiced INDOORS 50% of the time the last 3 weeks - many in HS gyms that don't have access to domes. Volleyball practiced INDOORS 100% of the time. 99% of players tested NEGATIVE. @MHSAA @MDHHS_Director @GovWhitmer

I’ve seen more mental health issues in the last 6 months than I have coaching over 9 years... Taking away another season of sports would be absolutely devastating. Kids need sports as their outlet. This isn’t about a game anymore. This is about our lives. Let the kids play 🤙🏼

How in the heck do you leave your team for spring break and still be in the tournament? Florida will still be there but playing in the state tournament for many is their last shot. Guess it does not mean enough!

Not a better basketball coach — it does not matter what level. I studied everything they did for years hoping we could get to that level someday. When “Fife” walked in the gym there was an aura about him, it was different. I guess that is what you call a LEGEND.
