York vs. Pickett

That was the best I've ever seen a York team play...I'm a fan of both schools so I'm happy for either to win. I just wonder what York would have been like all these years if Coach Wright had been coach...already he's shown he's coach of the year. Coach Matney should be credited for finding Newbaker but Newbaker would have been in and out any game three dozen times if the coaching didn't change and look at the talent that was driven off. York never had a starting 5, never left players in long enough to get rolling and their past record showed it. They have always had equal talent to Pickett Co. but in the last dozens seasons it's been something like 20 wins for Pickett vs 5 for York, or close to that. A big school like York should have dominated, not Pickett. I'm just very happy to see York off to a GREAT start and hope they whip Livingston! Pickett seems to play ever other game. They looked great against Grace, pretty good against White, horrible against Livingston, only played half a game against Cumberland Co. and won big in the 2nd half and looked awful against York. They had to be at their best to beat York, so a blowout like last night isn't a surprise.

Agree with alot of that bobcat, but that's my point. You can't say Newbaker would have been in and out because Coach Matney wasn't given the chance to show what he could or would do. What people don't understand is that he and Coach E were a lot different. They didn't always agree completely about things, but Coach Matney did what he was supposed to. He gave his thoughts on things, Coach E made the final decision, and Coach Matney supported his head coach. That's what made him a great assistant and that's why so many of us players are loyal to him. I've never said Coach Wright wouldn't do a good job. I think he will do fine. But my position has been and will always be that a man loyal to this school and to the program was not given the chance to prove that he could as good as or better than Coach Wright. That would have given both football and basketball 2 good coaches instead of one coach spread too thin between both. Not to mention the whole education thing with losing a great math teacher. Even Coach Wright couldn't replace him in the classroom. No one there could.

 

 

Coach Wright is our coach, and in the event you did not notice, is doing an exceptional job. Let's let all the other stuff go and support our team and coaches. Coach Matney is a good man and has moved on with his life and coaching career, and I think everyone else should do the same.

 

Go York

    • I have no idea who your team is, but Memphis and other Shelby Co. schools have hardly made a dent, if you’re talking Game 15 appearances. Outside of a couple by Whitehaven, I can’t recall the last team in a final. 
    • Robbed you guy at a chance of 3 state championships. You never kne,sond best team in the west my have beat you also,but you sure deserved the chance to play um.
    • Eagleville also loses Brown the catcher, Lamb CF, Mclemore RF (Heck of an athlete) and Drew the 1st baseman. They will be young. 
    • Good thing we aren’t in Florida then huh? It would benefit a ton of the smaller schools  that don’t have the pools of kids to choose from! They should start by policing Shelby County like they do the rest of the state! Something has to change though and TSSAA knows that! 
    • Correct, you can whimsically be fired in coaching. A coach that has tenure can stay on as a teacher if released from coaching. If you don’t have tenure as a teacher, you can fired without cause. Your last year as a teacher before tenure is earned you can be fired, but must be given cause. A tenured teacher can be fired, but it is a long hard process requiring the 3 D’s…. documentation, documentation and documentation. I have released 3 tenured teachers, 2 with PHD’s. However, teacher contracts had and still have clauses that state you can be fired for a variety reasons re: being arrested, public drunkenness, inappropriate relationships ect.
