Greeneville Coach Relieved Of Head Coach Duties

Greeneville has guys every year play both sports...this is a stupid comment. BJ Washington was great in both last year and Lance Bailey, Chris Epley, Jordan Greenway play both this year. Chase Greenway played as did Corey Shipley and Spencer Mercer.And let's not forget Ben Cooper, Braun Dabbs,Gillespie and JB Blue. If a coach "suggests" a kid should stick to one sport, it is probably because that is what they excell in. I can't really picture say,Antwaine Wiggins as effective on the field, and with his history of ankle and knee injuries it would be unwise. So what great football players from Greeneville have limited themselves to Basketball because Duncan "suggested it"

 

 

You said it all with your last couple of statements.Ben Cooper, Braun Dabbs,Gillespie and JB Blue played right about the time when Fred Sorrells and Gene King were RETIRING! New ad after Shipe retires, Free rain for Duncan.

 

End Of Story!

Barb, Greeneville athletics is a far cry from what it was, except for B-ball

 

I am done with this! I wash my hands clean from this subject!!!

I think coaches should encourage their players to play other sports because what you learn in one sport usually helps in an other sport even if a player excells at one sport he should play an other sport.

here are some example of what i mean by learning something from a sport...while all sports teach this some sports make it a bigger point.

 

wrestling-balance, and body control

 

basketball-quick hands and feet

 

football- physical contact

 

baseball-hand eye cordination

 

track and feild- stregnth, speed, and stamina

 

and all these skills will be helpful in anysport also note that i didnt mention every skill but just the ones that came to mind

I just can't stand it when someone from SOMEWHERE ELSE(for example ,PATFORLIFE from jeff county who has their own problems too numerous to mention)sees fit to extrapolate the numerous problems with the Greeneville program. I think maybe if ol Pat knows so much about how to right a sinking ship, he should sign on to his own failing Patriots who can't put anything together in any sport so far this year. I mean really, with that kind of enrollment you would think they would be able to field a decent team in at least 1 sport. I simply asked the guy which of Greeneville's bball players could be strapping on the pads and making an impact on the gridiron and all he seems to be able to do is trash the basketball and baseball coaches...I am still wondering what Billy D is going to do with all that "free rain" :rolleyes:

Until they are a top 25 4A team they are still playing in the wrong classification. I know the powers that be will never let that happen, but if I were a new coach I would demand that, and still play my rivalry opponents during non-region games. Greeneville is 3A school playing in a 4A region. They would have a much better chance of getting into the playoffs and actually being competitive in that classification. That is my 2 cents.

I agree that region 1-3A is not very competitive, but I have to say that a pretty good Morristown East team was beaten by the region 1-3A champion. If I recall ME beat Greeneville this year. I don't think that many teams below Carter in region 1-3A are very good, but If you can't compete with 4A teams, or make the playoffs then I would move down and try my luck with 3A. Three years of below 500 is not a team that is competitive. As far as meeting Fulton, Catholic, and AE in the playoffs you have to get there first. If you can't beat any of those teams in the playoffs what are you doing in 4A. Just a little info Fulton, Catholic, Seymour, and Anderson Co. will be playing 4A in two years.

    • A lot of people don’t realize how valuable JMO was. QB, safety, punter and holder on pat’s. Kid did it all. I fully believe if he was healthy Dburg would have made it to the ship last year. 
    • If Dyersburg quarterback who is also starting safety hadn’t got hurt it would of another blowout 
    • For perspective the county school I’m associated and graduated from only has 7,600 people in the entire county with a median age of roughly 47. That’s not very many 14-18 year olds to choose from. I think the football team had 25-28 kids or around there.  On the other hand Shelby County has 916,000+ with a median age of 36. This isn’t just about Shelby county, but all the big ones with huge economic advantages!  An urban/rural split would benefit tons of smaller schools that have to compete with counties with 120x the amount of people. Especially the ones who can pick and choose their players from a pool like that!   I also agree with Pujo about charter and magnets and they will eventually be phased into the private divisions because it is obviously an advantage plus all the funding! Add that county schools can’t go recruit outside of their county like charters and magnets! 
    • They should be starting next week and go from there.  They never do Spring Practice in April
