Sounds like someone is sour. Remember, the superintendent did not fire Coach Kinmon, he left for another position in the school system that required him to give up his whistle. I can already tell by your attitude you do not have the credentials to coach and lead a varsity basketball team. Your lack of respect for Coach Kinmon insults what he has done for the program and insults the players that played for him. To have the audacity to insult a highly respected man over a computer bitterns me and now everything you say I will take with a grain of salt.

 

Big misunderstanding. Kinmon is good coach and person. The smart move was selection of Utter as replacement. No harm intended.

All I can say is I appreciate what he has done for my son. It is easy to sit high above and question all that goes on trust me I know. But my son has the up most respect and was sad after hearing the news. Ron made the best decision for his family and that came with him having to give up coaching. I thank Ron for what he has done for Mike and for the friendship we gained in the same profession. I can say this about Joe Utter, he will work very hard and is a good coach. The boys are ready to continue the run that started over the last week. With a great trip to play a good bit of talent in Arizona, the boys need to respond to Coach Utter and get the job done. I will say that I saw some of the best coaching the last two nights of Ron's career and he went out a winner, good luck in the new position and hopefully he can bring a few more things to the district with his sports back ground.

 

I agree! Best of luck to Coach Kinmon!

Hate to hear this. Ron is a class act. Have really enjoyed my interactions with him. I wish him the best in his new position. He will be missed by the coaching profession. He did a lot behind the scenes in an organization capacity to help the 8th region. It was nice to see him win coach of the year honors in the 8th last year.

Sorry to hear about Ron Kinmon getting out of coaching. Is Utter the interim coach for the rest of the season or will they open the job up after the season is over?

 

Utter is the interim coach for the remainder of the year. The position will be open after the season is over.

He will be missed by many, but i am sure a few people are looking forward to coach utter taking over.

Easy, all the coaches at Grant this year are great people and I know that Kinmon will be missed. Sometimes people are great coaches from the stands. THe staff at Grant Co. does a great job with the cards they are dealt.

Best wishes to Coach Kinmon, the current coaching staff, and the Braves the rest of season.
