Billy Hicks, Billy Hicks, and Billy Hicks.

On the other side of the style spectrum, I thought Coach Henley from Holmes conducted himself very well. He was supportive of the players, coached but did not overly tear them down and kept sideline antics against the refs to a reasonable level. The refs seemed to pay attention when Coach Henley got on them, as opposed to coaches who rode them every trip down the court.

Agree completely. His biggest asset is that he doesn't try to show the officials up when he has a point to make. Most times you don't even know he is saying anything. Officials appreciate that a great deal, and will listen a lot more when it is handled that way.

Billy Hicks, Jim Bob Hicks, Jay Bordas. Did I mention Billy Hicks would be on there?

 

Maybe it's something to do with the last name of Hicks? Jim Hicks, Billy Hicks, Jim Bob Hicks. All a bunch of "Hicks" in the minds of referees.

BY Far in 9th region Coach Listerman at Cov Cath

I am seeing a pattern here with the last name Hicks. LOL

And the award goes to....Billy Hicks.

Sounds like we are all a bunch of whiners!!!!!!! Whining about the whiners !

I believe, without question, that Coach Wright at South Laurel probably whines and works the officials more than anyone I've ever seen. I've personally witnessed his griping and whining to the officials turn a good basketball game into a whistle fest among the referees. Nearly all of those instances end up with South Laurel gaining the advantage. His tyrades helped keep St. John in many games he should have fouled out of. I guess one could say that if it helps his team win,

he is just a good coach. No, I'm not a Corbin fan, just a basketball fan without an agenda.

 

I would agree, in fact, his whining kept his team close last night against Whitley. With a 14 point deficit, Wright called TO and did nothing but berate on official who immediatley called two violations on Whitley and two fouls....down to 4 point deficit. Now that is effective "coaching"

My vote would have to go to Scott County's Billy Hicks. His nephew Jim Bob runs a close second.

I would like to see a thread started as to which FANS whine the most. I was at the Holmes / Brossart game last night and couldn't believe what I heard.

This thread would be priceless:)

Hicks and Wright

Coach Morrow at J-Town has to be pretty high on the list. The guy is way too intense!!

Billy Hicks gets my vote.

I am amazed that this thread has almost 1700 views! I am guessing all the coaches that have a free account have gone here a few times to see if they are making the list? Any other names that might push this to 2000 views? :popcorn:

I generally think pretty much all the coaches gripe and complain too much, if they spent all that energy coaching, they would be miles ahead.

 

Obviously your not a coach.
