I agree though. The guy seems rather under dressed for some of these public appearances though. But man what a mess this has become. If the allegations he has tossed out toward the AD are true, a lawsuit will follow no doubt. GS better be correct or his coaching days anywhere are toast.

Grapeape 259 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 My professional dealings have required interactions with school systems throughout the region on both sides of the border, and I'm here to say that from top to bottom, school systems are the most corrupt organizations at any level. The ONLY school system around that is somewhat ethical and puts the kids first is Kingsport City. If folks new where the money was going in your typical county school system they would lose their minds. bucfan64 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swvafbrespect 67 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 I have been following this and I see a problem. Eveything the coach says may be true but if he cared about the students he would not have waited until he needed to pul an ace out of the hole. I beleive both sides are at fault and the coach should be releived of his dutes while there is other heads that must roll. What a mess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grapeape 259 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 Never hire a man that doesn't need the $. GS has absolutely nothing to lose. A lot of truth will be revealed by the actions of his (former) players Friday night against Bristol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1inStripes 932 Report Share Posted October 13, 2017 What is wrong with hiring someone who doesnt need money? Maybe the better idea is to vet all sources when hiring someone (maybe someone with a little experience) and not just make a splashy hire because it looks good on the outside.

There was a lot of talk of a terrible postgame scene between coaches/players/parents after last Friday. If this move at least keeps that from happening again its a step in the right direction for the rest of the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pissed off parents, 3 guys serving as HC in 2 weeks...one let go for "failure to unite the team", all but one coach let go (he must be the "yes" man), the new guy is a baseball coach, an entirely new staff except for 1 guy with only 2 weeks left in the season before any playoff games they might earn...yeah, it can get a lot worse. Haha They are sitting on a powder keg over there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
