While football season is certainly a stressful time for players, coaches and parents alike, one coach in Simi Valley, Calif., took things a bit too far during practice.
Adam Brubaker, a second-year coach for Royal High School, was captured on video kicking a football at one of his players. The ball, unfortunately for the player, hit him in the groin, causing him to go down writhing in pain. He was promptly checked on by his teammates and other coaches, but Brubaker was nowhere to be seen in the footage.
Just hours before the school's season opener on Friday, Brubaker was dismissed after a meeting at the Simi Valley Unified School District.
Here's a look at Brubaker's outburst and what the coach said about the incident.
