I hung out with some Highlands Football Mommies the other night...

Sure. The administration views the football team as one of the activities the students can participate in. Like chess club or choir. They probably view this year as a success. The football team checked all the boxes this year. State championship is not one of the boxes.

 

I think someone is selling you a bunch of bull.

 

And I hope you can’t be satisfied with that answer. You were an athlete and I suspect you have respect for a great football program and no way you can agree with this nonsense.

God help the administration at Highlands if what Diablo is saying is true.

 

He is pretty close to some Highlands folks, I hope he isn’t good friends with anyone that is running this dog and pony show.

 

I just think the administration doesn’t get it when it comes to Highlands Football. Football success isn't the first priority and it shouldn’t be. It is incredibly difficult to run a powerhouse like Dale did.

No for sure. I hope Highlands Football turns it around. I just think you and I care about it more than the administration. And I do have respect for the program it’s one of my favorite things. I’m right there with you. I just think the community is not as concerned as the alumni of the program.

Not what I said...you won't contact them. Why should they contact you?

 

Because it’s their problem not mine. They have created and continue to feed this monster not me. They need to put their big boy pants on from the top to the bottom and handle the situation.

 

I will be more than happy to meet with any of them if they want my opinion which I doubt they want and I don’t blame them.

 

So with that said, why is my opinion on a public forum of any concern to them unless they are reading this. They have all the answers and are happy with mediocrity.

 

BW committed the cardinal sin of a Coach last year when he complained to a media outlet that he didn’t like people talking about him. When he did that he summed up his career as a head coach for me.

 

I just can’t stand by and be silent. I have a duty to fight for his removal.

Iam with you but what you said earlier about the administration being content is troubling.

 

You would not have made this comment if it wasn’t said to you by someone at Highlands.

 

A very, very sad day to be a Bluebird Football Alum.

I totally agree but for Gods sake please give the kids a chance and the administration is failing to do this.

What I said about the administration was really just deduced from their actions. If they were concerned about state championships they would have put more heat on BW or worse. But then the question is who could and would do that job better?

Thank you G.

 

So do you think the administration is concerned about the direction of the program? If so I’d like to hear why.

Honestly I do, but not to the point of removing the head coach.

What percentage of them are Highlands alumni?

I believe Highlands would have a list of accomplished head coaches from around the country that would be interested.

 

It won’t be an easy task finding the right guy but after a few try’s at CovCath they got it right so why not at Highlands.

 

Perhaps another horrible year of gate income and more and more donations being withheld along with more kids quitting he team during the season will finally warrant a change from administrators but Iam not holding my breath.

When the BW era is over, how long do you expect the “turnaround” to take? To put it bluntly, how quick do you expect the new coach to win a State Title?

You are so full of yourself it is unbelievable. I read comments people like you post and realize where high school sports are headed. As I said before if you have this DUTY approach the principal, AD, superintendent and voice your concerns. Coaches don't deserve to be treated like crap by the media but especially by someone like you. It won't matter who the coach is at the Big FT. If they don't win it all, or win big, or the right kids aren't playing both ways, etc. you'll be super critical. You watched a run of talent for about 10 years that was unparalleled. It may happen again, but probably not.
