do you mean child molestation, or programs being treated like they are the main reason a school exists? if you mean the former, it's possible. if it's the latter, sure it happens quite often. the more coaches win, the more leeway they get. and it gets out of hand.
and
excessive punishment? i don't think it was excessive.
