COMPLETE control. Unfortunately, in today's society where everyone wants to be in charge (ie. parents and school board members) it rarely happens. It is the only way a program can be successful over time. Basically today it only happens with those programs that WIN constantly. Examples are mostly girls programs at Shelbyville, Jackson County, Clarkrange, Oak Ridge. Coach Pitts had it at Science Hill. Hopefully, Carlton has figured it out and will steer clear at BA. Unfortunately, the professional style of handling things has trickled down to the high school level. Firing the coach is easier than firing all the players who don't work hard or have a crappy attitude or just don't have any talent to speak of. Too bad parents can't be fired for incompetence. Our country could not afford the unemployment that would cause!
