I will not put out a kids name like that because I have more respect for kids than that and its not that kids fault at all so no need for her name to be involved!!! Anyone who has knowledge of Unaka Sports knows who the good ol boys are. Only reason I posted is to let those who are taking up for Wes Wright know that before you go putting down the players that quit please just talk with them and get ALL sides of the story. I have never been one who believes players or parents should have control of a coach BUT when they are right they are right and the kids are standing up for their right to have a good high school career without people taking away their high school playing days just to get what they want int the future and for what its worth girls, I RESPECT YOU FOR THAT. Those girls who quit are NOT the ones who were flippin off fans and making the school look bad. They are the ones that wanted those actions to stop. How can anyone blame kids who all they want is to play ball and not be a part of the political junk that this situation is all about?

I have followed Unaka girls basketball since Coach Hicks had them and I can tell you this. The school has never cared about girls basketball at Unaka!!! I just love how people come on here taking up for Wes Wright who have no idea what is going on or even WHY he is head coach anyway. Ask yourselves this, why would he ger the job without considering anyone else when he has never been a high school head coach and has NEVER had success anywhere he has ever been? Ill tell you why, because it had nothing to do with doing the best for the program. It had to do with the one family that has run stoney creek for as long as I can remember. One family who has their noses in every decision that is made. Right from the start when "coach" wright got hired it was set up as a two year deal even tho I am sure Wes Wright does not know this. He was placed in the job to hold the slot for two years until "the good ol boy" club could fill the spot with who they want when their daughter gets into high school which just happens to be year after next. Coach Wright is just a pawn in a plan of the good ol boy club. They have tried hard to keep him in one more year and if they are successful, Coach Wright will find out one year from now how he was played for this family to get their way on stoney creek, as usuall. I dont know Coach Wright as a person but how good or bad of a guy he is does not matter. The point is this, the man has no clue how to run a ball team. I watched in shame this season as I saw girls flipping off fans while running down the court and saw a fist fight break out, Saw players refuse to come out of the game when trying to be subbed out. I have heard people blame the girls BUT leardership starts at the top and Coach Wright allowed this to go on without putting a stop to it the first time it happened which caused it to get worse and worse. NO basketballl knowledge, no control over his team and no respect to or from his players!!! and you wonder why he cant win. I have been a loyal fan of Unaka girls basketball since the 80's but I will tell you this. With Wes Wright on the sidelines I will not be back because his actions and the actions he allows the girls to take puts Unaka Basketball to shame!
