Coach fired

This week, when I went to CNN I found a couple interesting topics. One of them being about teachers getting fired, because of what seemed to be ridiculous reasons.
The story was about a Coach that got fired because of his track team was running without their shirts on. I would think that this wouldn't be a big deal because if anyone had a problem with it, they could just say something and then the team would wear shirts. I don't see why a coach would get fired from this? So, of course, I continued to read. The coach's name is Tom Davis. He stated: "It was really dramatic fashion. They escorted me off the premises as if I was a threat to the kids, which is amazing given the (athletic director's) background." The coach claimed that he stepped in after Karl Fogel, athletic director, got into a heated discussion with one of the runners. The discussion was about him having his shirt off while in practice. This whole incident began about two weeks prior when someone complained to the school about the boys track team running without any shirts on. The school department supposedly made it very clear they didn;t like that, stating that someone may get kicked off the team. Yet, there was no official rule set.
Davis then stated: "it was such a messed up situation, there was never a rule enforced. The first instance that there was a rule, it was confrontational. That's unacceptable."
The school said that "Friday's decision to relieve Mr. Davis of his duties was not the result of a single incident, but rather the regrettable outcome of an ongoing discussion."  Without further detail of what that "ongoing discussion" may have been about.
Davis then claism that the athletic director was the one with the problem. Stating: "He comes at me, bumps me chest to chest, spit coming in my face..." There happens to be history with heated discussions with Fogel, the athletic director, says Dick Sullivan, a former coach. Sullivan stated: "Its not the first time or the second time or the third time. I wonder what the school administration is thinking by supporting the athletic direcor."

Alright, well there is an obvious problem. Everything is "he said, she said" There is no proof. I understand the Coach being shocked, because there was never an inforced rule. I don't understand why they can't be adults about it and have the runners wear shirts. One complaint, and there should be enough respect to acknowledge other's opinions and thoughts. If parents or teachers or the school, is uncomfortable with the fact that the runners are running without shirts, then someone needs to respect that, and make the runners wear the shirts. That's the only place I see where Coach Davis went wrong. Either way, what's the big deal about not wearing a shirt vs. wearing a shirt? I say, just get it taken care of. No reason for the "he said, she said" nonsense.
