"I have 35 varsity football players, and all those kids are my babies, and I love them all," Haynes said."I want our kids to understand that we’re a family and we’re going to protect each other, but 5 and 0 at Whitney, that hasn’t been done in a long, long, time, and so that’s our main focus."
"I want our kids to understand that we’re a family and we’re going to protect each other but 5 and 0 at Whitney, that hasn’t been done in a long, long, time and so that’s our main focus."Another video shared with NBC 5 shows the incident from a different vantage point.
