The profession of coaching football whether it be college or pro and all the moving around you do and the time spent away from the family is a HUGE OBSTACLE to overcome because the demands are so overwhelming. Some can do it and many do not. Divorce rate is high and their are more kids from football coaching families like Dungy's and Reid's that we don't hear about that struggle big time IMO. And why I always have thought you are better off single until your coaching career is over IF you are one of those career climbing type coaches.
I don't judge Reid at all and part of me feels sorry for Reid but the other part say's this is a classic example of when career comes b4 family and the toll it takes when you don't
'nip sh** in the bud' when it first rear's it's head when they are kids and you continue to let 'sh**' slide time and time again. There were huge signs way b4 these 2 got into trouble the first time and Mom couldn't do it all by herself and now Andy has paid a severe price. I thought for sure when Reid had his family issues aired out several yrs ago with his boys that he would step away from the game for awhile to actually BE THERE but in reality it was too late especially when these 2 were already young adults BUT STILL he should have stepped away from the game to put his family 'truly first' regardless if his boys kept falling off the wagon.
Just sad.
