I am hopeful that this situation is cleared up quickly and that Coach Adair remains just that baring facts that truly reveal his character to be susspect. My business partner of 23 years spent the night in jail 15 years ago when his teenage daughter went missing for 6 hours, came home hammered at 3 a.m. at the age of 16. She proceeded to scream at the top her lungs and call he mom an F------ B---- and upon hearing that, my partner slapped her accross the face and told her to get to bed. AN hour and a half later he was woken by police at his home, to arrest him for assault. The 16 year old had called the police and they took him to jail. As a footnote, the daughter and father are thick as theves now. The bottom line is whatever he did long term worked. The daughter loves her dad and vice versa and the kid is smart and a mother now.
When I heard about this incident..that is what I thought about. IF Trevor Adair had a history of this it should be well documented. If not then I hope is still our coach. ###### shame either way.

I think it's a tragedy that this has happened. I've worked with Coach Adair in the past and this seemed EXTREMELY out of character for what I know of him. Obviously he did something that went too far, but I'm hoping it was circumstantial and that when those circumstances are revealed then this can be settled in such a way that he remains our coach. If not, then I hope he can rebound from this and that he isn't just let go as our coach because somebody is trying to win the "I am the most PC person in the world" contest.

one of the first things I saw was a mother spanking her kid in the middle of the aisle in the grocery store. My first thought...."it's good to be home".

I don't know anything about the Adair situation but...

it scares the hell out of me that the government has more control over children than parents do. The 16 year old you mentioned deserved to be slapped in the face and I don't like knowing that the government can arrest a parent in a scenario like that.
