You are definitely in the minority. I don't think anyone would say that Robbins was a terrible coach, but, at PV, he was a product of his circumstances more than his coaching savvy. I know that in his final years before consolidation that he closed the weight room when other coaches were volunteering to open it. And I recall the cheerleader coach telling me how their practices lasted longer than the football team's those last few years. I worked at PVH for several years. I heard about the arguments with administration and what his peers and players thought about him.
And he was "so" popular that he received the 3rd and final seat out of a field of 5 people for town council in BSG. Then, finished dead last in the field of 5 this year to lose re-election. Doesn't exactly sound like someone who is revered as a coaching legend in a small town does it?
Phil Robbins record speaks for itself. He had talent and good assistants for sure. Maybe one of the most important traits of a good head coach is......If it ain't broke, don't fix it and if it's working, don't screw it up.
Most'n ovarrater coach liven. Jones boiz or buss for dat fat loose!
Competition was the difference...Giles isn't good but had been battle tested...narrows had played little league teams...and narrows very well may finish 9-1 with their schedule
