He treated us pretty good. I enjoyed playing ball for him. I remember hearing stories though of how he got thrown in to the irrigation ditch at LCHS by the players when he was an assistant there. I wish him the very best at his new position.Vicnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-50322689791837491202012-04-22T19:33:03.127-07:002012-04-22T19:33:03.127-07:00Yeah, I was at MHS from '83 to '86, and Dr...Yeah, I was at MHS from '83 to '86, and Draper was great ... at winning four games out of ten.<br /><br />He was a failure as a football coach and an even worse teacher. Additionally, while he was trying to earn a master's degree, I learned he could barely write a complete sentence. (I have family who were faculty then and he was enrolled in their classes.)<br /><br />I can't imagine what he'll bring to a faith-based high school other than a prime example of "here's how NOT to lead a virtuous life." <br /><br />Not only was he a physically abusive coach, he was an emotionally abusive teacher, often publicly picking on students' physical flaws.<br /><br />If Mike Draper thinks Las Crucens have forgotten his disgusting behaviors, think again. There are many others like Anthony and I who will have no problem to remind MVCS what kind of monster they hired.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835899929137685677.post-16767276681126025332012-04-17T18:04:38.752-07:002012-04-17T18:04:38.752-07:00he was my jr high coach and was the most abusive c...he was my jr high coach and was the most abusive coach that would spit in your face and kick you.
