I believe those same girls won a National? championship one year. Good Luck to all the BBall seniors at Forrest it has been a pleasure watching you play the last 4 yrs.

Yes, Coach Hall has resigned his girls BBall coaching position at Richland. and the Baseball program (I believe ) has gained from it.

I have to answer this quote first I go by my name on this board "dkoons52" not "IKNOW" If I have caused any problems on that team ever.. I don't know about it OR how I did it. Once when my daughter was a sophmore I wanted her to move, but she wanted to stay at Richland which she loves... school and her coach, and the subject was not brought up since. To get on here and say things like that are mean-spirited and stupid. As far as losing Coach goes, he cared for the BBall program at Richland with a passion I admired, there wasn't anything he wouldn't do for anyone of his players. He is a mentor, a teacher, a coach, a friend, and a good man. Sorry you never appreciated that.

2 will play College ball one Div 1 the other for her home college, the other will go on academic achievements. Thanks to Coach Chad Hall. It's by no means the coach's fault, Just knowitall's like you who has to have someone to blame. Congrats on a great year RICHLAND 30-3

Jamie, Don't you mean GOLD BALL??

How many games have you seen this year??

She plays with more heart than anyone anywhere, every game. She's finished with her High School Basketball career BUT she has 4 more years with the Golden Eagles of Tennessee Tech.

I don't remember them all Abby Andrews C'wood Vanessa Pincheon M.C. LaToya Pincheon M.C. Rachel Glidden R'land Rachel Melson W.C. Haley Lovett S'town this is only 1/2 of them, maybe someone can help with the rest.

I'm with Jamie on this one, it's late and only talked to 1 other parent, her and I both are available for transportation. I was told there is no fee for any of the girls to attend and that includes the Jr. High team. So we are not talking about a great deal of money..$400-$450. We are very proud of the girls and what they accomplished. So there is NO reason they should not go.

Today, 09:12 AM Post #3 Medalist Group: CoachT+ Posts: 1,206 Joined: Jan 27, 2005 Member No.: 72,560 Well, I have said all year long that Collinwood was the best team in the state so I will pick Collinwood by 7. Although I would not mind seeing my D11 buddies pull an upset!! Also, am I the only one having trouble with the THUMB SMILEY???? -------------------- I DO NOT SUFFER FROM INSANITY, I ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF IT!!! This was posted jamie this morning at 9:12 on another thread. flip/flop

Pierce will be a junior next year. He starts and/or plays some of the younger ones every year. Mine started as a freshman, the following year it was K.P. as a freshman who saw alot of floor time. Last year it was 3 sophmores and a freshman starting 4 with 1 senior. This year 3 juniors 1 sophmore 1 senior staters, with a sophmore first off the bench. And he gives the bench more opportunities than any coach I have ever seen, only 1 did not play in less than 17 games, ( thats more than 1/2) and she had surgery on her hand and still played in 11 games. Most played in 20 games and more.

Why was this year her best chance??

I ask again who are you?? if you believe in what you say call me lets discuss it. this is all self serving for disgruntled parents who dis like Coach Hall for what ever reason they thnk they have, but all you have accomplished is hurt the girls who busted their rumps to have a 30-3 season. And then belittle their accomplishments in stating the teams they have played were weak and did not deserve the respect for their hard work. If you were a Richland fan, be proud, they did you proud. I am ashamed of you, and your counter parts in this all you are doing is trying to tear a program down that gets better and better every year. My daughter would walk through fire for him, and I stand by her 200%, which in turns makes me stand by Chad Hall. The future is bright, stop being so selfish, get with the program, 2001-2002 8-11 2003-2004 20-11 district champs 2004-2005 23-6 sub-state appearance this year 30-3 district undefeated, district champs tourney champs. Like I said bettter and better. Take this up with the proper authorities STOP belittling the girls. Call me I would love to talk.

THANK YOU

If you think some of these Al. teams were not good, your an idiot. If everything you set out to do works perfectly, write a book we all want to know that secret. who brags?? NOT the girls!! and they are the ones you are all hurting, with this constant chatter over a game that is said and done. who are you anyway?? is your child on the team?? OR are you one of the ones who were cut?? doesn't matter you would not hurt your own the way you are hurting these girls.

Do you folks know how you are hurting the girls who poured their hearts into this game?? for heavens sake ....be quiet they read this stuff.. the game is over the season is finished they need to focus on their next year, revive their dreams NOT dwell on their past. Care alittle about how devestated they are NOT your own personal opinions on the coaching abilities of Coach Hall, take that up at a later time with the administration who decides those things. Everyone knows who my child is so stop making this worse than the reality of it is. Chad Hall did not lose that game and IF you saw the game you know that it could of went either way at any time. NOR did in any way did the last shot to tie the game was the deciding factor, Get over your personal vendetatas (sp) against HAll, you are tearing these girls hearts out, and I can speak for more than a few... love this man, and you are about to get on my last nerve. If you have a problem with anything I stated take it up with me. I'm listed in the book, and not hard to find.

Under tones of sarcasm, mean-spirted remarks in front of parents, was not necessary. The girls worked hard, and did well. I will not state them blow by blow on here, but to be a complete supporter of the program and the team, would be misleading. And we both know it. Your mad at the coach, thats O.K. take it up with him.

I only know of the last 3 years, and no one in that time has won state from around here. Being there is great no doubt, these teams are great no doubt, but not the best, maybe this year will be their year, we wish them luck.

I'm surprised no one has noticed how he flip flops before now. Maybe next year the girls won't flinch when they see he's posted again.

And they (12a) also manage not to go much further, we wish Summertown well the rest of the season, if not us (Richland) we hope its them.

I've said the same thing for 2 years. and you can add K.P. Pierce to that list the improvement she made this season amazed me. On the positive they all 4 will be back next year older, more experienced and more determined to get the job done. You can take nothing from them, They are the best of the best. 30-3 season not done by many and this young team did it. Glidden, Bell, Duke, and Pierce you haven't heard these names for the last time, that you can bet on...

Who has he recruited to Richland???

Is the game being broadcasted??? If so who???

No, I believe Forrest won District, Richland won the tourney, and the award went to Forrest.
