Grapeape Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 The fact that he happens to be African-American will prevent him from ever coaching at GC. They're not a very progressive school system, to put it mildly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

who? Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 no school system will ever hire Sensabaugh, I don't know why he would want to put up with it all anyway. Coaching in the 21st century has too much baggage. Grapeape 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trumpet1988 Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 I think it is silly. Crockett seems to be much better in football. The kids seem to be enjoying it.  He mentions things wrong with the system. The school division is angry and doesn’t want to listen.  I have complained about things wrong with my place of employment. I didn’t do it on Facebook or a forum because I just don’t do that.  He he seems as if he really cares for his students. Whether or not you agree with him is not the issue.  He was not posting liberal things or conservative things. It seemed like he was being honest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm talking HC. And I love Rogers, but he's done zero actual coaching in 20+ years. Media day was the last day he came to practice for many years.

V-Cats Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 Crockett has the unfortunate situation of being in Jonesborough: too many wealthy, well-connected parents who expect to see their kid on the field regardless of talent Same exact problem Abingdon had until Reed came and changed the culture. cityofRaven and Grapeape 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not worth the headache and having his players make a decision on whether to play a game without him is not a good look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityofRaven Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 A 5 and 2 record at a program that has been historically awful...  Never said he'd be a head coach but he'll be on a staff. V-Cats and SXSW 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SXSW Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 Sensabaugh is a good guy, in a bad spot. This is his first gig as a head coach and could have shown more maturity and not got into an argument with the school board but he is the type of person who will defend himself. He will be a successful coach because he is a successful person, just maybe not in his current location. I am anxious to see how they handle the situation of all the kids saying they will not play if he is not the coach. This has gotten way ugly. cityofRaven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore, their two losses were by 2 and 1 point(s), meaning they're a few plays shy of a 7-0 record I can't help but think that if Sensabaugh was white, this wouldn't be an issue with the well-to-do folks in Washington County, TN...

redtiger Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 Race could well be an issue but considering what just happened at Volunteer sensitivity could be the overall issue. I certainly hope race isint the major issue here V-Cats 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
V-Cats Posted October 11, 2017 Report Share Posted October 11, 2017 To reinforce cityofRaven's point about Crockett's futility, some fun facts about the Pioneer football program: Â Last 7 win season: 2000 They have never won a playoff game in their 46 year history Only 5 winning seasons in their history Overall winning percentage: 26% Â I could go on Source:Â http://www.tennprepdb.com/teamhomeseasons.aspx?Team1=David Crockett cityofRaven 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
