“It is not my intent to hurt anyone’s feelings. I am there to coach football. Help young men develop the next step in their life,” says McFarland.After the controversy surrounding last week’s game, the former coach says he was forced to resign. 19 News spoke with him on Thursday. McFarland admitting he is disappointed with the school’s administration who demanded his resignation.

“We have used the term Nazi for several years, so the lineman can have a code to let each other know that there is a play side blitz occurring off the edge that they have to adjust their blocking scheme to pick up that aggressive blitz,” says McFarland. “Once Coach McFarland said I am sorry It never occurred to me anyone would be offended. We will stop using the term. I will apologize to your boys at half time. That should have been the end of it,” says Peter Pattakos, McFarland’s attorney.
