Just got off phone with someone intmately involved with Volunteer program, basically confirmed this is Anderson's last season and girls are elated. Anyone else heard anything, I know rumors have been going on since end of last season.

 

 

I been hearing rumors last few weeks, something must be going on. I think last years 6 wins and only 2 wins this year and not being competive is getting to everyone. After losing only 2 starters from last years team and only 1 or 2 from this years team their program is going to be weak for some time. Everyone is ready for a change.

I guess that person that is intimately involved can't even give the coach enough respect to make his own announcement, and then someone posts a rumor on a web-site. This season is not over yet, but you post a rumor on a web-site that will distract the players even more. And it looks like they need to pay close attention to what they are doing. Is this a reflection of some of the folks associated with Volunteer High School? Gosh, it might be difficult to get a new coach.

I coached against Coach Anderson for years. I always felt like he did the best he could with what he had. The feeder program at Church Hill Middle School has been extremely weak for about ten years or more. Many of Volunteers' standout players often go elsewhere and I don't think Coach Anderson should take the blame for all of that. I always thought his teams were well prepared and played hard. They actually had the best jv team in the Watauga Conference about six years ago, but the success didn't carry over to the varsity much. They struggled to compete in AA and may have reached the Region once or twice. Expecting them to compete at the AAA level with the weakness of the feeder program and the lack of athletes is absurd. It may be time to start building a program at Volunteer, tearing down the coach and current team will not help much.

I wasn't trrying to tear down coach or team, but I heard all last season it might be his last and I've heard it all this season and players and parents heard it too. Reason I have heard is he wants to watching his daughter play next season and I commend him for that. It's hard enough to compete without controversy so hpoefully one way or other Volunterr program will get on right track. The girls deserve it!

After tonight's DB game I congratulated a couple of the parents and players i know from Volunteer on a well played game. They brought up the subject about this being Anderson's last year and said he had thought about retiring before last year's season to watch his daughter play middle school ball but was making it official 's after this season. I don't know if it's rumor or not but it is old news to Volunteer faithful.

No, you nor ProudPapaw tear down these girls or Coach Anderson -- As for you Proud Papaw -- let the girls speak for themselves and I doubt you talk to any of the varsity girls -- you want to tear down this program so bad it's not even funny!!!! We know how you feel, and you're not for us at all - so why don't you just leave these girls alone and the program alone and pull for DB!!! All you talk about is how bad Coach Anderson is --- well for your information I bet we could bring you to the whole team and they would debate you publically!!! He's a good man and has made some great changes to this program and cut some girls this past year that pulled the team down. WE STAND BEHIND OUR GIRLS, DAUGHTERS, GRAND DAUGHTERS, and NIECES. There is NO ANNOUCEMENT and when it comes, it will come from him. I agree with the other poster that he's not had a feeder program, but that is changing. The coaching for girls at CHMS and SMS are great -- these girls are already pulling together and ready to start playing travel ball in a few weeks -- this is a young program with some great talent coming up.You can put us down all you want -- we played like champs last night -- Thank you to the VHS coaches and the girls for your hard work and teamwork --- DB had to work their butts off to take that win --- Great things will come to this team -- WE BELIEVE IN THE LADY FALCONS!!!

Did you talk to Sandy, Coach Anderson's wife???? I mean that would be intimately involved. No, haven't heard anything and I know the girls very well and they're just fine, their problem is YOU and always putting them down. They really wish you wouldn't even come back to one of their games and they don't understand why you do.

That's funny, just thought of something -- sounds like you are connected to DB, though you said you had a niece that played for VHS and you always sit with the parents at VHS -- you can go check your post over on the Volunteer Christmas Classic section --- guess you are just a lying trouble maker.

Asnap, Surge

 

Please accept my deepest apologies for the posts about VHS. This started out as a simple question why some girls did not return from last year's squad. I knew the reason for one and it was not BASKETBALL as everyone thinks. She still has not recovered 100% from the head injuries she received by being attacked last year and accordingly to doctors may never. She had to go homebound last year because of injuries and neurologist said any blow next 2 - 3 months to head may cause permanent damage. The student that attacked her was still in school and making threats to do it again whe she returned. The student that attacked her has a history of violence and physically attacked four other students during school year. With this student still at VHS her safety was paramount. SO NOW YOU KNOW. With the head injuries she sustained, for her try out and make any team was quiet an accomplishment. When some derogatory coacht posts, myspace comments were made and ugly text messages she received came from people not knowing why she left I became very defensive and vented my frustration in a very improper way. For those of you that know the truth and what she has gone though the past year physically and emotionally thanks for your love and support. For those who did'nt know and still snub her you are missing the opportunity to know a wonderful young lady whose heart and family still supports the Lady Falcons.

 

Again I a truly sorry and embarrassed for the posts and will not be making anymore

      Who vandalized Maryville's Football Field?

      By strongx · Posted

      Sorry Barn. I wasn’t specific enough. It seems I’m always protecting the principal at 825. My interactions with her have been extremely positive, but very limited. With all the other stories being told, I’m confident there are other sides I am not aware of. Regardless, there are lots of decent people earning good checks up there. Maybe too good, which explains why no one is willing to speak up. My beef is with the poor communication among the athletic programs and with the administration. Seven years ago the poor communication led to my son missing graduation due to a sporting event that was planned months before. I chalked it up to the system being totally shocked that the baseball team made it out of their district, and our then AD was a football coach. Maybe they were surprised and did not plan appropriately. That was more palatable than they just didn’t give a crap. Déjà vu, seven years later, same thing. Different administration, but same result.  Maybe in seven more years, it will actually be “about the kids”. They should do better.

      That's a fair line. But if it's not over, that's a big problem.

      RR, you think that changes this year, or at least improves? I know they had a couple of talented young receivers last year that made some plays later in the year. Defensive back was a struggle against any team that was above average at throwing the ball.

      By BarneySox2007 · Posted

      You would think with football just three months away more would be talking. There's only so much a person can say about someone allowing the field to get painted without asking their boss who would have said ((((((((  ALE NO ))))))))) or all the other BULLS#!T they've done as they lead Maryville High into the new age of WOKE in a conversative town. I'm ready for some football news without hearing something coming out of 825 that Power Munger has done to cap off the week.
