You must not be watching what I am watching. Her behavior comes across as both loving, but overly attached. It isn't insane to think her behavior is inappropriate at times. I certainly don't know anything, but if I was her supervisor and I witnessed her interactions with the players as portrayed on the show it would cause concern to me.
When you work with the kind of kids she works with, from the background they come from, you can get attached to those kids when you put in that much effort to help them succeed.
She's basically serving as a surrogate mother. I think what you're mistaking for inappropriate is actually her serving in that "Mom" type role.
What interactions specifically made you think it was inappropriate?

I'll respond to Gatahata and your response in the same post...I am certainly not trying to be overly negative. I just see some of her interaction as unprofessional given her role in their lives. I also suspect based on the way they portrayed her she likely dialed it back a bit because of concerns for what might be perceived.
I have some experience to base my perspective on as a former D-II athlete (football) who spent a season at the D-I level. I now work with young men some of whom fit the statistical realities of those guys on that team. So I do have perspective of how to get things done successfully with young men "like that"...I also believe the coach should have been sent packing after the ref incident and certainly after the issue with the local law enforcement. I would argue the school clearly doesn't have the best interest of those young me and their future at heart based on what they are willing to expect to achieve the end goal.

Yep, Brittany is the only source of light coming out of that God forsaken place. And represents MSU well.
