Bishop Brossart 59 Mason County 54

And consider the source - some are completely unprofessional and do not realize that losses are not negative but just learning lessons and should be posted if they are posting wins. One may wonder why BGH doesn't post about BBHS boys games. Thinking the boys coach has restricted him from doing so. -

Guess BGH is back on the bandwagon after not posting anything about the loss to NCC. Pretty typical but we've all come to expect the "missing" summaries. Congratulations to the Lady Stangs for every game they play hard in, win or lose. They deserve a lot of credit for working hard to become the best team they can become. They represent their school very well. Wish there were others who would do the same. -
Seldom will you find an AD, or anyone for that matter, in administration that will support their coaches. It's much easier for them to "get rid of the problem" than have to deal with parents, when in fact the problem is the parents. The revolving door of coaches is due to the fact that administrators want to keep their jobs so if they keep the parents, school board, grandparents (ok, everyone BUT the coach) happy, then they save face. I have little respect for those who do not stand up for their principles just because they don't want to deal with conflicts. Spineless people are just that . . . . wavering in the wind to appease those who will give them the least amount of resistance. And parents quickly learn that THEY are the ones who make the decisions and not the administration. So sad to see excellent coaches give up their passion because of lack of support from the people that hired them. I don't see this changing anytime in the near future so if there's a revolving door of coaches, the first place to take a closer look at is the administration, not the coach.

Shannon Turner resigns at Cooper High School
gbbfan replied to 3 Goggles's topic in KY Girls Basketball (High School)
I wouldn't be at all surprised if this is true. Parents will NEVER be satisfied and they feel they have a God-given right to oust whomever they want. Many good coaches (Turner included in this bunch) opt out of coaching by choice because of parents who complain. I always said, "Give me a team of orphans and I'll likely win a state championship." So sad that we have such spineless administrations -- seldom do they ever back up the coach. Unfortunately in this case, the next coach will already be put on the firing squad, it's just a matter of time before the guns go off. Congrats to Coach Turner and all the sacrifices she made to the program. No one should have to put up with the headaches they get from whining parents. -

I'm not the one posting immature comments all over this site. That would be very unprofessional, unlike some people who should certainly know better in the postion they hold. Once again, shame on you for acting in such a manner. -

First, I want to congratulate the Lady 'Stangs for tying for the conference title. A great feat by a very good team. But, and I know many of you are going to find this absolutley SHOCKING, BGH was inaccurate with his facts. Actually, it wasn't 1999 (where we got all the "interesting" facts of that year!) that the Lady 'Stangs last won the conference. They went undefeated in the conference in 2001 when Katie Schwegmann and the team won the Regional title. Since BGH seems to know all the facts all the time, I thought that maybe he should do a bit more work before giving his rendition of the history of a specific year. -

You and Wayne take some of the best pictures around. I know the athletes love to see themselves participating as well as the parents. Thank you for your unselfishness and willingness to take time out to make someone else's day just a little bit brighter. -
Covington Catholic Wrestling Team???

Possibly Newport Catholic? Brother Joe (who recently just passed away) ran a pretty good program up there for many years. -

"Isn't St. Joe a feeder school for Brossart?" Well, why not ask the AD from Brossart this question - oops, the post was by the AD from Brossart so I guess I answered my own question. Does the AD not seriously know the answer to this question? Come on BigGreenHorse - why even post that question? Maybe the question should be -" WHY are St. Joe's students going to NCC if Brossart is the feeder school?"
