Psychology of Coaching Class Blog: Hazing & Homophobia March 8, 2010 - Archives - University of Minnesota

Hazing and Homophobia is a major topic in today's sports society. I was shocked by that in the video "Training Rules", that Coach Portland was able to keep her job for so long being a blatant homophobe towards same sex relationships. It was absolutely amazing that Penn State didn't take any actions in allowing her to continue her homophobic believes and use such tactics in her recruiting. I had never realized it was such an issue in today's sports society. To have Coach Portland release a player from her team (Harris) because she believed that Harris was gay, it's absolutely ridicules and can't happen today.
