Dark Horse78 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 West is a tough place to coach. This job seems to open every 2-3 years...wish all involved the best of luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrel Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 There are a lot of places like that. What makes West tough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Horse78 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 It's just different...I'll leave it at that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MSU-70 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 I'm curious too as to why they can't win there. Are they rich entitled kids/parents? Or are they a rural school to spread out to get kids to committ? Or is it that they are a basketball school (or soccer, baseball, etc.)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good tradition in Soccer, Basketball, Baseball, Track & Field and Bowling. In everything but Football they are dominant in their district and tops in their respective regions.

Bluegrasscard Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Not a populas county but two high schools. So some talent spltting there. In-county rival Jaguars have been fairing better in football recently. Also, soccer is big here. Lots of focus on soccer over football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auburn Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Without looking at the roster's of all football, basketball and baseball, but having a pretty good guess based off past year's I bet they have less than five kids who play more than one of those. You could throw soccer into the mix and I'd be shocked if more than a couple of them play basketball or baseball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone who understands what he is getting into can win SOME games there. #1 There has been an unwritten policy of 1 sport athletes. #2 You will be up against a wall trying to hire assistant coaches for work in the school system #3 There is an unwritten policy of "we offer this sport" keep your nose clean, keep the kids out of trouble, don't be a problem. Win? We didn't say anything about winning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderbuddies4life Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 I am pretty sure there last head coach was a para pro and not in the building or a teacher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantkiller Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 AS long as the baseball coach is in place, you will not see too many baseball players playing football. Been that way with him for years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gchs_uk9 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 AS long as the baseball coach is in place, you will not see too many baseball players playing football.
