Does Livingston Academy have a future?

 

Are you asking if there are gobs of state titles in the future, now that remains to be seen. Do they have potential to return back to being a competive program? You better believe it. Basically our whole team is young. I am not a parent of any football players, but do attend alot of games, talk with parents and family of the players, and other fans with more "inside" knowledge of the program. They work hard and play a tough schedule. LA will be better and I can't wait.

There were a LOT of seniors on the '05 championship team; and combined with all the mess from last year it is taking a bit to recover. LA also plays one of the toughest schedules in the state. We'll see if Grant Swallows can continue to bring the program around.

 

Is the controversy over the principal having any effect over the team? (I do not know the details of the resignation of Haskins; but he did create a stir over the boys' basketball coach when he tried to unilaterally fire him when he took the principalship this summer...and was overruled by the Super.)

I don't know about the principal. What was the deal over the bb boys coach. What's up with that, any idea?

Haskins had some issues over the way the bb coach dealt with the players...and apparently wanted to have him removed for this. Word got out over this; and the superintendent clarified the situation. He was quoted: 'I make the hires and fires, not the principal.'

 

Haskins (the new principal) apparently wes under investigation (am not privy to details); was put on administrative leave at the start of the month; and resigned about 3 days ago. That's all I know at this moment.

    • We could sure use some math teachers country wide. Ever go into a store or restaurant and the bill comes to $9.97 and you give them a ten dollar bill and 2 pennies because you wanted a nickle back and then the meltdown starts and the next thing two more people have to come and help figure it out and the place comes to a complete halt. I see this everyday and it's a sad representation of all these schools allowing these kids out the door to get shortchanged the rest of their life. 
    • I like the Pirates chances. I’ll be there as soon as work allows.
    • Stars, I heard we were searching far and wide for some math teachers. Any chance their kids bench press or 40 times are getting checked? LOL I’ve heard good things from 825.  
    • I think it was expected. “Bad” luck I guess to get a couple difference maker QBs in the same class. I thought the decision was made a little early myself, but they were struggling offensively last year.  I assume the running quarterback alco had last year would be a senior this fall, and the transfer would start the following two years in addition to getting a ton of playing time this year. Maybe he waits two yrs, but I doubt it. The kid is good. So is the one who stayed.
    • I'm from Cloudland and we've never played a sectional game.  We need to win tomorrow night to avoid that bus ride.  Us and north greene can play with you guys so I'm expecting good games whoever the matchup is.
