Fair enough.
Just one thing about your post and the coaches you mentioned. I'm fully aware of the coaches named Bernie (lagat), Brisco, and Dahl. But who in the HELL is Finch?
I'm as involved as it possibly gets when it when it comes to college running, and I don't know any Finch. Unless it's an assistant.
Also, coaches have contracts with legal terms. So it's not always as simple as you are making it sound. There are processes and procedures they must take prior to a termination hearing. We all appreciate the moral sentiment you gave.
