From superintendent in the link Goskers provided:
The misconduct allegations included behaviors that do not reflect the professional conduct we expect from coaches in KPS. The behaviors include the following: “fishing” for compliments from various players, saying things like “I’m fat and I don’t know why my wife is married to me” only to have players refute those comments, driving a team van to a summer tournament where the song “Wet A** P****” by Cardi B was played and potentially sang by all in the van including Coach Carson who “didn’t remember”, handing out awards at a team banquet that included an award to “the girl who got the most SnapChat numbers from guys on road trips”, and taking a selfie with the players who were clad in bikinis on a summer trip. To be very clear, the most serious allegation of misconduct included a flirtatious relationship and preferential treatment of a specific player... There has never been, nor was there any evidence to suggest that any inappropriate physical relationship occurred between Coach Carson and a player.
1. The "fishing" for compliments accusation seems kind of absurd especially if the coach is naturally self-depreciating.
2. I would bet there are thousands of HS coaches in this country who have driven their players around in a van and listened to songs like Wet Ass Pussy. Those kids listen to that music anyway. Give me a break.
3. The SNAPChat award probably was funny and light hearted, but may have been misguided.
4. Taking selfies with the girls in bikinis was probably stupid and he should have considered the optics, even if it was innocent.
5. I'm not sure there was any evidence to prove the flirting relationship.
