Someone on Twitter said something to the effect of the coach being a complete idiot for getting his boys into that situation, but then the fact that he was able to keep them alive for 9 days before rescuers found them is quite remarkable. He apparently was teaching the boys how to meditate and keep them calm throughout.
As for how they got that deep, I'm not sure but the flooding may have begun after they entered the cave and they could've been forced deeper into the cave to get away from it. Anyone who's been to SE Asia will know how ridiculous flooding can be during monsoon season. It can go from sunny to pouring buckets of water in an instant.
