I usually try and stay as neutral as I can on most matters. However, this one really seems to smell bad.  KCHS is a team that has had its ups and downs all year.  Lots of potential but never seeming to get there.  They play a great match against CAK in the regional finals and barely get beat out.  Then against all odds they travel to a perennial state powerhouse and upset them in their own gym, and apparently (it sounds like) some of the parents of the KCHS team are complaining and bitching about the coach.  Wow, your team is going to the state tournament for the first time in 6 years.  This is a moment your child will never forget.  Embrace it, and support it  100%,  My goodness don't be a divider, be a supporter.  No wonder Coach Garland (according to CoachT) wants to leave.  Despite all of the negative comments out there, and I am sure he hears it everyday, he is still coaching his butt off for your girls the best he can.  Parents out there, be team players and not such a bunch of selfish individuals.  Get over it and support your team. 

 

Somewhere we have lost something in our society.  Pull together people and be team players.  Parents, you have no idea how much you influence your kids when you ###### and complain at home.  Think about it.  Volleyball is a great game and this high school experience is something your kids can cherish the rest of their lives if you don't mess it up.  Embrace the journey, if you can get over the "me" syndrome.

 

Good luck to all of the teams at the state tournament.

Well played tourney KC! Several matches in the 5th game you prevailed! But for 1 day during that 2 hour span of time you were defeated by a better team that wants revenge against a team that put your team and my team (Signal Mtn) into the losers bracket, revenge is sweet! Best of luck! See you in the football playoffs.

    • Playing high school sports is a privilege not a right.  The college did not have to rescind the scholarship.  Scholarship offers are pulled all the time for a number of reasons. That was 100% their choice.  A coach can keep, cut, or dismiss any player that they want to without reason anytime they want.  Is that the right way to run a program?? I don't think that it is, but these are the facts of the matter. This case has absolutely 0% chance of going in the plaintiff's favor. Futhermore, I'd imagine that these administrators and the coach are a part of some teaching or coaching organization that will cover at least 1 million dollars each in legal fees. Obviously the kid and her family feel like there were "damages" thus the lawsuit.  Unfortunately, the law is not on their side in this case.  
    • Maryville will recapture the loses from last year against West, Bradley and Farragut. The Bearden game will be the tough one but I look for the wheels to come off that ride somewhere down the road because of all the crap that goes on there. I know to many parents there and some of the things I've been told and some of the post a few of them have made on facebook. They all can't be liars.
    • If Heritage moves down and Alcoa moves up the best thing for Heritage is to do what William Blount did when theystopped playing Maryville or meet certain defeat. Honestly can't see Alcoa not moving up the way the county is growing. Might be in the Mountaineers best interest to stay in 5A because none of those teams on their schedule are anything close to Alcoa.
    • I say over as well. Barney, regarding the move to 4A, will the cross-town blowhards move up as well??
