Football_1975 1 Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 I wouldn’t be surprised. He’s got a lot more support than people think. Talked to someone this weekend that said rumor was be back either this week or next. Said couple assistants saw talent coming and wanted him out. I reckon he got hit with a baseball a year or so ago that limited his mobility. Thought it was time for their chance. Other stuff old news from same people over and over again. Like him or not, he produces. Wins with little to no talent. Probably would have put Burton in game last week. May have pulled it off.

Football_1975 1 Report Share Posted September 2, 2019 I understand that point. I just think it is a shame someone have to go out like that after all the years. Should come back if he wants to imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He brought it on himself. sixcat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should come back if he wants to imo. He had a chance to go out differently, be celebrated and none of this would have come out. He chose himself over the kids and community. The superintendent declaration made it clear he was lucky to even be there this long. Not only that, but here's the straight truth bottom line: no coaching contract is tied to a teaching contract. There's no tenure laws in Virginia governing coaching contract. Coaching in Virginia is no different than any other "at-will" employment. It can be stopped at any time for no reason at all, and the last Judge knew that. That's why he's not back coaching now. No way to enforce it. The superintendent has followed all the proper steps and this investigation can last as long as she wants. And I don't care if Vince Lombardi was coaching last Thursday, X's and O's wasn't the issue. It was Jimmy's and Joe's. Burton was outnumbered and outplayed. Jimbo would not have helped. redtiger and swva_havok_fan 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he resigns in lieu of being nonrenewed, he can go out with a big celebration. Maybe even have something named after him. Now? Nobody can come back from what's been brought out. True or not. Again, true or not, he has no right to coach. Nobody does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pioneer pride 70 Report Share Posted September 3, 2019 8 hours ago, Blue_Crue said: In statement to court by superintendent all of these girls accusations had been confirmed by documentation that Principal turned in but for some reason just now is coming to light... Exactly...that's fishy. They should have come out over a year ago. This is a classic example of a principal doing his job and the board office covering it up, because of who the offender was. That is shameful and a disservice to the students in Norton and the staff he worked with. He needs to have all teaching credentials revoked and all coaching records vacated in my opinion. He also deserves to face jail time. Pathetic excuse for a teacher, coach and community leader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
