#1-I have been at Overton since the 1997-1998 season and have been both the girl's freshman coach and the assistant varsity coach.

 

#2-As for the improvement in the team, it has to do with discipline and attitude. Not that any of the other candidates wouldn't have brought discipline to the program, but Coach Reed seems to have already left a mark. Many of the kids have made comments that the conditioning is more demanding than it ever was with Coach Fuller. The future will show if that is true, but at least there is a change.

 

#3-I have no idea who will get the baseball job. I don't think its been posted yet.

Metroman, does it not bother you that you have more experience than Reed? Maybe that's your wake-up call that you won't get a head coaching job in Metro. That's not a cut to you. You will learn that you have to be corked up somebody's butt. Anyway, good luck this year Metroman. I'll see you down the road.

Oh, by the way, every coach has diferent ways to condition. I don't know where that makes coach Reed such a great fit.

Hey Metroman, I know that you have to say the right things on here and I respect you for your tactfulness and diplomacy but all it takes is to be passed over and you get labelled. It has happened to several others in the past and I hope that list does not grow someday to include you as well.

CoachF, heard President Bush is stopping by your neck of the woods tomorrow. Maybe this subject calls for Presidential intervention. As the next move maybe we can send troops to Bransford Ave. :)

I do have to diplomatic, but I really do think that Coach Reed is a good fit. I have a lot of respect for our administration, and I am not just saying that. They are not afraid to make tough decisions. Like the decisions or not, there are some things that needed changing at our school, both in and out of the athletic department.

 

As for getting a head coaching job in Metro, we'll see. I am more concerned at where I am teaching than where I am coaching, that's why I'll be happy here for a long time. This is the best coaching situation in Metro.

Metroman-- I have heard the same things about the new basketball coach, and I have also heard that he participates in the conditioning excerises. I feel like this is a great way to gain the respect of your players. Also on the baseball job, dont you think that either Morrison or Williams will get it?

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
