Hasn't Tyler Summitt been shunned enough. Can't he coach again?

[volfan2024]

What he did was wrong. I admit it. But does this have to continue to keep him away from coaching provided he wants to come back. If it was up to me I'd invite back to UT to be an assistant coach. Just saying, I think his mom would agree, maybe not, who knows. What do you think?

I don't think he should coach women's sports again, that's a line you can't cross.

Imo he should transition to men's basketball if he wants to continue coaching.

'We still feel the guilt:' Tyler Summitt, son of legendary coach, tries to move on from scandal

No hard feelings for him but I wouldn't want him coaching my daughter.

Why are men coaching women’s sports anyways? Looking at you, geno

Unless I missed it whats be done that’s anything close to what Summit did

So disappointed to see this thread again, it brings posters out of the woodwork, sure, but this has been rehashed here over and over and over again. Our season about to start, much better things to talk about.

I believe in forgiveness 70 x 7 for sure. After all.... my eternal destiny has been determined because of forgiveness. However, there are certain circumstances and consequences for life's actions. Tyler probably could coach in a men's setting but probably not be allowed to coach women's sports again.

I don’t believe there’s forgiveness for those who hurt children. They deserve to rot in the pits of hell no matter the prayers, Hail Marys, or our fathers they do.

Everyone is built different but there’s surely a reason or two why he never made the move.

 

[VolBricks]

he has enough money to never need to work again. He should start a business if he needs something to do .

I would keep him away from ALL female student athletes. I understand people deserve forgivness but he abused his power. I believe he should be able to coach again but a school only hire him as a male coach only.

No coming back from what he did. Besides, he's not going to be hurting for any income. He's collecting Pat's retirement. $173K a year for the rest of HIS life.

Putting the indiscretion at Louisiana Tech aside for a moment, his resume is pretty thin. It's not the only reason to avoid hiring him... and do you even know for sure that he has tried to get back into coaching? The last we heard from him, he seemed content to be Mr. Mom for a while.

"He has not coached since his resignation and insists it’s by choice. I don’t see coaching as a career,’’ said Summitt, who was 30-31 at Louisiana Tech. “I used to. It used to be all I wanted to do, to be a coach for as long as I could. Not anymore."

Can't force anyone to hire him.

I look at all the people that meet at work families, break up with children involved. I’m just saying there has to be a time because at his age and I just don’t think he’s getting any good advice if he’s just throwing it all away. I mean I have been married a long time no outside relationships dead set against them but you know at some point people gotta quit being so judgmental.

 

[HarsinVol]

What's all this about shunning? Is this forum full of Amish?

Nope, actions have consequences. It's not judgemental, it's reality, and it's fair. If he wants to coach, coach men.
