Martinsville and Coach Jeff Adkins part ways.

[Real Sasquatch]

Perhaps the most animated coach I have ever seen, with Fred Phillips running a distant 2nd place.

Jeff was very animated not only as a coach but even when he starred for back to back state championship teams at Martinsville. Then he went to Maryland and played for Lefty and learned the true art of animation from a master. I believe it's alot more to this story but we will never find out. Some of us close to the program have a pretty good idea what is going on, but it isn't really fair to Jeff to discuss it in public. Bassett has a job opening now and there is alot of people trying to get him hired there. He will land on his feet. He runs his families business and doesn't really need the headache but he loves basketball and the interaction with the kids.

I will never forget him against Radford at RU.  He ripped his coat off and slammed it down and then fell down.  I thought he was a decent coach.  Martinsville may regret this move depending on what they do.

Jeff just got hired as the new coach at 4A Halifax Co. They play Martinsville twice in the regular season so they should be some interesting games.
