There’s nothing worse than a delusional high school coach who is so drunk on his tiny bit of power that he makes life miserable for everyone.

Of that detestable crowd, Nations Christian Academy Head (FL) Basketball Coach, and school CEO, Mike Woodbury might be the worst of them all.

Audio of Woodbury’s profanity laced, threatening tirade directed at one of his players who had expressed an interest in transferring leaked today, and it’s as disgraceful as it gets from someone who is supposed to be molding boys into young men. Unbeknownst to Woodbury, the player was secretly recording the entire rant. Oops.

In the clip, Woodbury can be heard abusively telling the player that he controls everything related to the player’s transfer. In between calling the kid every four letter word in the book, Woodbury tells him he’ll send him back to Haiti if he crosses the coach again.

It’s shocking, but not surprising, in the world of pop up shop prep basketball schools, and the sad little men that run many of them. Nice ‘Christian’ values, coach. This tape should end this guy’s career by dinner time.

Listen here (Warning: Tons of explicit language):

 

Woodbury actually released a statement attempting to explain the entire thing, and it’s not much better than the audio.
