Lance 228 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Well, I am not from Tazwell and can't say I have ever been there in my life but the fact still remains, Shane is going to have enough to deal with from what I understand about the hierarchy in and around the athletic programs in Tazwell. Don't add to it by getting something unfairly started on a meaningless message board. i didn't...in fact i said you don't need that sort of press, you don't want that sort of rep getting started...and you don't...it will be important the kids out there take to him is what I was getting at...you don't need all that hard nosed/hard ass stuff going around...too easy for kids to sit home and play Xbox than to work hard, much less if they think the guy is a slave driver. Being from CC, he might know a few refs he can bring along to help things out though :) j/k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would remember my brother as I am sure my brother would remember him. They competed against each other in high school and were two of a select few athletes to go on to compete at the college level. The talent level then is not what it is now for this area. As for the ref's comment and as I have mentioned before, I have never been affiliated with the VHSL and will leave it at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish the guy luck, the kids in T-Town need a good coach that will stick around for a few years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish the guy luck, the kids in T-Town need a good coach that will stick around for a few years. I was not living here in the early 2000's, I left at 17 in 1992 and didn't return until 2007. I had heard about some issues over the years before CC was a member of the SWD but that was many years ago. The problem, as it was explained to me, was the head of the association for referees (pre Roanoke Association and Appalachian Association covering this area) was also the longtime principal of CCHS and he would schedule ref's/umps to his/their advantage. That has all been changed from what I understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulldogs52 482 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 you folks in Tazewell walk around with your head up your ass most of the time, so it wasn't much of a leap from nose to ass.

These 20 years of abuse for being a Skins fan is about to come back and bite some people in the arse! On the new coach, I wish him luck, not he needs to get his arse here and get to work! 2 and half months till it all begins! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
legend11 32 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 By: By Jim Talbert\staff | Richlands News Press Allen said he would evaluate his personnel; before deciding what schemes to use but favored a spread version of the Wing T offense. My goodness. How did this sentence ever get past an editor? Jim Talbert used a semicolon wrong; it shouldn't have been printed. See what I did there? See?! SEE?!

See what I did there? See?! SEE?! Damn straight! The BDT would've capitalized the word right after the semicolon, then misspelled "schemes" for good measure. The Richlands News Press has much to learn... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigrhsfan 884 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Well i wish him good luck ! He's gonna need it that first year and maybe every year after, but i do hope he turns things around, if for no other reason then for the sake of the kids up there that do want to play and work hard ! He's gonna need all the support he can get from former players and anybody that is willing to support him. Tazewell was once a force, and can be again if they will let him run the program and build it the right way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every post you make is something smart mouthed against us. I think I speak for all of the people in Tazewell when I say, I'd rather you just be quiet and not even mention our town, community, or school. Or you could just be a moderator and be unbiased.

Tazewell has been a revolving door hot seat for coaches the past several years...i thought 2 years on the over/under was generous given the history?

Just being honest, it is what it is...nothing more. Sorry if you don't like it, it chaps your ass, or pisses you off to hear it. Truth is, when people hear Tazewell gets (another) new coach, first thing they think is "how long before they run this one off?" Sorry Smitty.

The people in tazewell had nothing to do with the last one leaving. He screwed up himself. What pisses the people in tazewell off is people blaming them for running coaches off.

Please refrain from profanity. I will not converse with someone who articulates their thoughts in that manner. I believe coach Allen will do a fine job and believe he will be here for a while. I've coached against him and his defenses are always sound. Sorry Lancie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futbolking 766 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 I'm with Lance on this....what did he say that wasn't what everybody else was already thinking???..... I do hope that this guy last longer....We'll see if he just wants to get head coach on his resume and then move on when all of the saturday morning quarterbacks start running the show.....
