I am hearing that the whole coaching staff got fired after an altercation on the floor at the Tournament. Huh????
From what I've seen on tv and read, an Eldorado player was shooting a free throw. An Eldorado player threw an elbow to the head of a Hamilton County player when the free throw was shot and the player went to the floor and after getting up fell again. Then the Eldorado coach fist pumped the player who threw the elbo. Someone who lives in that area can give more info I'm sure.
Saw the video - didn't show the coaches. The kid that threw the elbow is lucky he wasn't charged with assault - really dirty move.
Eldorado has long been the dirtiest HS team in Southern Illinois and this particular altercation was caught on video and went viral. They backed their school board into a corner with this one, and the board fired the entire coaching staff.
After watching the video, how did not one of the three referees see that? That should have been a flagrant foul and immediate ejection.
