That’s awful one sided of you to not also include that it was after she called the coach an “expletive” after he told her she needed to shake hands with the opposing team.
Not saying what he did was OK or justified or not, but at least present more than just the one side when it’s right there.
If it’s not justified and doesn’t matter, why bring it to? Might as well include that the girl took a deep breath before the assault because that also doesn’t matter
You’re basically defending the guy by saying violence is somehow appropriate when a teen curses at you. Do you realize what you’re implying?
He had punishment options other than Assault: for example he could have kicked her out to the showers, kicked her out of the team, possibly even all the way to getting her kicked out of the school.
You know, normal tools for coaches and teachers in highschools to deal with serious pupil misbehaviour.
This ain’t the 1920s and physical punishment isn’t acceptable in schools anymore.
1920’s? Your timeline is really skewed. Stuff like this was normal in the 2000’s. Hell, it’s still legal in some areas to beat kids with a paddle at school.
Headline: In a startling discovery, 43 Oklahoma school districts used corporal punishment against students with disabilities during the 2021-2022 school year.
Because you’re removing the ability for anyone to make their own thoughts on the matter by picking and showing only the side you agree with. You’re just pushing your own opinion on the topic.

Allegedly. He said that after he was caught on camera assaulting that student!
And if true? Who gives a shit!? He’s an adult, in a position of authority, and she’s a minor. Oh, and he assaulted her.

Where in the fuck was this normal in 2000’s?
Not OP but I know of a Catholic middle school that used corporal punishment in the PNW. It was still going on in the mid 2000s.

Texas, Georgia, missouri…hell, find me a highschool football coach that hasn’t smacked a player in the back of his helmet.
If it’s not justified regardless, then why does it matter what she did?

Or, you know, they could have just read the linked article…
Yes, we are picking the side that assault is wrong
There is no “other” side to an adult assaulting a child, ever.
