Most Outrageous / Funniest Thing a Coach Has Done

When I was in 8th Grade, we were playing the first game of our conference tournament.  We had only 2 losses going into this thing and opened the game with the worst 1st half that we had played all season.  I was benched after the first quarter for taking to many ill-advised shots (ha!).  During half-time he was so mad that he slammed his clipboard against the locker.  The part that broke off hit his face and he had to get 6 stitches.  It was all that we could do not to laugh (which is when it is the hardest).  We went on to win the game and the conference.  Our principal actually stepped in to coach and did a really good job!  We joked about it for years after.  I still call him "coach" to this day.

No assistant coaches?

I have no good specific stories I remember, but I do remember that all week before the game Coach would tell us how good the other team was and how flawed we were. Every day, every practice we were going to get murdered by the other team.

Then the day before the game the attitude was totally different. We actually might be able to win, but only if we folliwed his plan to a T. It was always amusing to me.

He also used the word "Ri-damn-diculous" a lot, still one of my favorite words today.

Then there was the coach of another team that said his #1 job was to be his team's biggest cheerleader. What a clown he was...

FIRE HIM! This is embarrassing

I had a high school coach drop his pants to show us a scar on his backside that he still had from when he took a charge when he played in high school basketball.

First practice for the new head basketball coach.  Practice was not going well. We were doing the famed shell drill. Ball got tipped to him, he proceeded to grab the ball and punt it into the upper level of our gym. He then told us to run until he got the ball back. Come to find out, it got stuck in the top of a set of folded up bleachers. Had to get a janitor to pull the bleachers out so he could get the ball. By the time he got back with it, 4 kids had puked and practice time was over. Took about 25 minutes total.

Not in our junior high back in the mid-80's.

We were working on dribbling with our weak hand one day and our coach said "Man, some of you probably couldn't pee left-handed!"
