And a soccer field supposed to be level and the football field is crowned. And them using the field is by no means the reason he resigned. But I agree with you the booster club as well parents did a lot for the football team.  James Jones is the reason plain and simple and it's stupid that the director of schools doesn't get voted on by the county. Instead he does favors for his buddies that keep him in there. Man is dirty and I know a lot more but this isn't the place to voice that. I will definitely miss Coach Davis and our many talks in the field house before games and after. That man means a lot not just to me but a lot of former players. I hope whoever takes over does good but they won't find anyone that loved that program as much as Davis hands down. 

I agree. James Jones has employeed family memebers from each of the school board who are not certified to work in a school system. He keeps the school board happy by offering positions to uncertified people in return for their votes on his contract extensions and pay increases. The whole system is corrupt. The school board does not want to hold him accountable because they are invested by meritless work rather than service to constituents and parents of the community that want to see their educational system excel.

You are correct, following my posts will not be of any interest to you, because I deal in reality. I guess he got "past the issue with the soccer team" after the season, since he never attended a game. Not district championship, not region championship, not sub state game, not at state semi finals. ..and for those folks that aren't aware, his daughter plays on the soccer team.

that's a pretty sorry man in my book

 

 

Here is a deal of reality. The soccer team will never have any success as Derrick did leading his football teams. He didn’t let a cult of parents influence his program in any situation. Parents who attempt to coach from the sidelines in their lawn chair and yelling at their daughters is very sorry to me. You see this same sort of eventual failure in the youth programs because of parent cults.
