oldskool

You know exactly what I meant. But if you didn't let me clarify it. Of the teachers that teach at Graham High and Graham Middle none of them would even attempt to coach nor would they be good at it. As of now Carlock is the best choice. We just have to live with it.

You guys are killing me. Is there someone else that teaches in Tazewell Co. that you guys want to coach at Graham? PLEASE name that person. There are no basketball coaches at Graham High. They are all football coaches. I really don't think he actually would have taken the job if there had been someone there that would have been qualified to do it when Jones left. He's doing what he thinks is best and maybe it's not working but until guys start playing in the off season and not just when November comes then they are going to continue to lose. IF you guys want another coach find one and I'm sure he'll step down if he andthe administration feels that is what is best. Lighten up a little bit and maybe try to help the situation especially if you are form Graham. I have pride in the school but unfortunately I don't live there anymore so I can't possibly help to much. I get on here just to see what is going on back home and all this negative sh*t is what I see. Teach your kids the game before they get to high school. The middle school only plays about 7 games so that's not helping. With all these geniuses on here I'm sure you guys could put your heads together and come up with something.

There are a lot of people on here that think replacing a coach is real easy. I know he hasn't done the things that we feel a good coach does but sometimes you have to put something on the players too. Do you all have any "good" coaches in mind? All I keep seeing on here is we need to get rid of him. Go get you a degree and apply for the job.

The Pitts kid is a tough little point guard. He's small but he can play like hell. Saw him while in high school in Charlotte.

He was referring to Paco.

Somtimes as a fan you get what you deserve. The players in no way shape or form deserve to have someone coach them that appearently has no idea what he is doing. They wanted Gilliard to go and they got something even worse. Deal with it for the next 5-10 years. Your years of going to Charleston just ended for a while. Look forword to beating Graham and bragging about that.

They have alot of players on the bench but none of them can play. When Craig goes out of the game Bluefield is terrible. If the opposing team pressures the ball when he's out they will be in trouble. Patterson is not bad but he's a little out of control and can't run the team. Ansel needs to get more touches especially when his brother has to sit for any reason. They gave him the ball down the stretch and we all saw the results but I still say it's going to be a long night for them if they play a good team and Craig has to sit.

At least means "NO LESS THAN". Can't be both. LOL!!!

Graham has just fell upon hard times. They don't have any athletes or "BASKETBALL PLAYERS" down there anymore. I didn't here all this bashing when we did have the athletes and we punished people and beat Bluefield 4-5 staright times. And I know it's been a while but some of you guys are ridiculus. Be happy that you have those athletes and you can compete with certain teams. I guess we'll see how good you are in February.

I want to be the first to put my foot in my mouth. Before the season I said that I predicted the G-men to go 3-7. You guys have played your tails off and made it to the playoffs when alot of people doubted you because of how you young you are. I being one of them. Keep pounding and see how the playoffs come out. No one seems to be head and shoulders above anyone. THANKS FOR PROVING ME WRONG!!!!

So in other words your saying by them quitting that is standing up to the coach? That's not standing up to him that is what we were taught at Graham as being a chicken sh**. If you have a problem with the coach you finish the season out and talk to the coach if that doesn't work don't come out next year.

There's no CHIVALRY in those KNIGHTS. LOL

COWARD!!!

I hear the parents are already complaining. Is it true that East will be the JV coach and next in line for the head job? (Asst. Head Coach)

Players and Staff.

I hate to say it but the Beavers will not make it to Charleston. I've been wrong before and I 'm sure I'll be wrong again but I don't think I'll be wrong on this one.

I know Red is dead, before someone even says it. I was just trying to make a point.

Can somebody please call Phil Jackson, Lenny Wilkins, Or Red Auerbach for these people please.

Boy I bet that maroon and orange was a terrible sight to see. Damn, what a color scheme.

Graham's official colors are Gray and Maroon. It's in the fight song. I think the cardinal and gold came about when coach came and everybody knows how much he liked the Redskins.

Did he ever fail a drug test? If I'm not mistaken the little girl turned out not to be his. So I guess he did fail that test.

Calling him lazy is really un-called for. There have been plenty of very good football players that for reasons we don't know have decided to not continue to play ball. It happens at almost every school. I know for a fact it happens to Graham and Bluefield guys quite often. I didn't name any names because I didn't feel it was neccessary but I'm sure these guys wouldn't mind. It is their personal choice and you should just accept it.

Some of the things that coaches do "WE" all second guess if it doesn't work, but answer this for me. Was the coach the one that missed the free throws at the end of the game? No, I think it was you guys All State guard. The player that most seemed to think was the best in AA. If he makes those we might be talking about something different.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the '92 team was one hell of a team that couldn't win at the AAA level due to Beckley. Now the first 2 years that you guys moved down you won it all and that was 10 years ago. Some of you need to realize that you are not going to win it year in and year out. Be glad that you have one of the best teams each year. It's not as if you have a history of winning BASKETBALL championships although 2 is more than some schools get in their history. It's great to have high expectations but some of you are taking it too far.

And that's one thing he can't afford to do right now.
