    My grand told her in one game “ we’re not prepared “ you don’t know what you’re doing - course she’s pretty outspoken  and didn’t play rest of game 

    Are you saying a player told a coach in the middle of the game “we’re not prepared and you don’t know what you are doing”?

    More of a Football School recently they have been dominating people, but 2 years ago they went 19-8 then 5-17 last year.... however, the school Has always had good athletes. It’s like anywhere else you have to get the kids to buy into the program and build it from the ground up, starting with getting kids to want to play basketball and not be on a subpar team that might win 10 games. 

    What class are they?

    I would make South Gibson sign my own personal contract before I took their job especially with their principal and AD. Meaning I am going to get a big time booster club set up and have fund raisers and camps and legal money making gigs quite often to get any thing needed to make this program better. Also I put in writing what I am going to do and that is have year round camps, play days and open gyms for feeder programs up to HS. I would demand this and I wouldn’t take a job there without a contract signed. Also I would let them know I don’t care who knows who and who goes to grill outs with who that my way is the highway and the best players will be on the floor, not the most popular. And I am not dealing with parents going to principals because their child is not playing. Let’s be for real. They just lost maybe the best young coach in the state in their boys program. Now would be my time to get some leverage with their administration right off the bat before I signed off to jump in there. 

    There is always going to be upset parents in high school sports so you will have to deal with that regardless!

    USJ and Dyersburg is not a better job than South Gibson in my opinion. It may be a little more money but that’s it...

    Dyersburg is a rebuild situation. USJ is out of Jones sisters, don’t offer financial aid to athletes. Webb (Bell Buckle) is about to be really good in Division II-A for the next few years, going to be hard to beat for a state championship. 

    South Gibson is young with talent. Only district competition is South Side. They have a chance to be in sub-state next year for the first time in school history. They have a great middle school program/situation. A thriving community.... South Gibson may not be as talented as what Summertown was this last year, but she will establish her system at South Gibson and win big.

    South Gibson will not compete with South Side and the other side of that region is not a cake walk for sure. Hardin County and Chester will both be pretty good. McNairy and Lexington not so much but the semi final game of the region will be tough for South Gibson.

    I never thought Rudesil would leave Bolivar to coach at another. I figured he would retire soon and Crisp would take over. But, I was told by a mutual friend that Crisp wasn't ready to take over, as if Crisp felt that way himself.  Not really sure exactly what he meant, but with that being said....at this moment, I fully expect Crisp to get the job. I assume the job has been offered to him and he is contemplating. I will tell you that there's a lot of people in Bolivar that will be very disappointed if Crisp isn't the head coach next year. Keep in mind that Bolivar has a good bit of talent returning next year with some young kids that can play. It would be very interesting to see Crisp take over with these kids.

    you would think a state tournament team is going to bring back some good players for sure. They should be good, Especially in the lower classification they will be playing in next season.

    Quick question on Dancy?  From what I'm reading on here, the only reason he was able to win is because he had talent.....Isn't that how every coach wins?  Name me a championship team/program(In any sport) that won and didn't have talent? Talent is at the core of winning.  Yes you have to have a great coach to manage and maximize that talent.  But every championship, winning program has talent.  And I know there are a lot of great coaches in this state that are great coaches but because they don't have talent at their schools, they can't win.

     

    This is exactly right! You can be a great coach and not have players and get beat and be an average coach and have great talent and win.

    I've seen him coach a few times and he seemed to do a good job. Don't know him personally but everything I have heard has been positive. 

    When I look at Coach Runyon's record over the past 3 seasons his team got better every year. He Went 19-8 this year finished second behind South Side. So he seems to be able to develop talent. I read an article that stated the Superintendent and Board wanted a change. Rumor is the principal didn't agree with the decision. Sounds like he got railroaded out of Lexington. Time will tell whether this is a good hire or not but I don't see anything that will put up a red flag.

    Bigger as in attendance and success! I don’t want to drop the name due to certain reasons, He’s going to have them in the gym a lot and plans on having a full summer since they are allowed to play 10 days/camps/playdays in the summer. You’d have to trust me when I say it will definitely be a good hire. He’s around 30 years of age and will put the time and hard work that’s necessary. I wouldn’t be surprised if they competed right away.

    Now I have to go look at attendance and success of teams in West Tennessee... LOL

    What is your definition of West TN? Including Memphis?

    I’ve heard of another person who got an interview, and let me tell you, it would be a huge hire for South Gibson. I won’t put the name out there but it’s an assistant coach at a bigger school in West Tennessee. A lot of good buzz around him and I think he would be a home run hire for the Lady Hornet basketball program!

    WestTNroundball... drop some names... LOL Bigger as in attendance or bigger as in success?
