Referees should watch the game and block out the crowd. IMO a referee should have a member of the crowd escorted out for cussing. I think most referees do a good job but there is one in particular (not going to name this 8th Region official) that makes the game about him instead of the players. Which I may be wrong, just what I see from his games.

How did Donovan Johnson play?

It has the potential to be a good program. People in the community want it to be successful. So I guess you are missing something. There has been good talent that has come out of Grant but there has also been a lot of talent that has been overlooked and not reached its potential.

Excellent post! :thumb:

I don't think it's the elementary level that needs the improvement as much as the middle school. There are plenty of kids playing before they hit the 6th grade. The problem is so many of them are cut at 6th grade tryouts. I think having an A team and a B team and playing the more advanced kids up a grade level would help a lot by the time those kids get to high school. Grant is very bad about not playing up a kid who is in 7th grade and good enough to play 8th grade, etc. But the parents complain when a kid is moved up. Lot of work to be done. :idunno:

Stats?

No, he isn't able to get involved at the High School level. The program needs someone with no ties to the program anyway, IMO.

Gallatin by 5.

Someone I think the program overlooks because he is the father of Coach Kinmon is Keith Kinmon. Coached a few years of AAU basketball for the 08-09 Varsity team that went 19-11. Very high basketball IQ, not only knows the x's and o's but is a very good motivator.

SK by a dozen. Steiner is a very good coach. Chambers will have a good shooting game.

Whoever gets this coaching position will have a very difficult task in their hands. I'm very curious to see who gets the job. Hopefully they can take the young group they will be given and head in the right (winning) direction!

Then what is the reason?

Haven't heard any of these names mentioned for the Head Coaching position. Names that have been talked about are Jon Jones: Gallatin Steve Simpson: South Oldham Steve Wright: South Laurel Scott Hundley I have had no one mention Billy Hicks...that seems rather ludacris for his name to be mentioned. and..About the comment toward criticizing..well..winning cures that problem. What fans wouldn't complain going from 19-12 to winning just 10 games. Just a tough year for the program and no one enjoys watching a selfish team that does not play together. Best of luck to the Braves tonight at Walton.
