Before Charlie Leonard got there they didn't have Mason Miller, Tony Madlock Jr. Aiden Applewhite, Zander Yates, or the other big kid. Without Applewhite they were a pretty beatable team at times this

One has to push himself to the limit to win Mr. Basketball and thus later in life tends to push students/players to their limit so they can achieve their best. Little Johnny’s mommy and daddy ten

I see they went 16-12 this year. What kind of job is this? I know Pete Froedden was there before. One of my former assistants is interested. Just trying to get a little info for him. Thanks in advance. 

I think it’s a good job....

Desirable location, Very competitive district, Good admin (I like their AD and VP, J. Jones...don’t know any others), good facilities (school opened in...96?), good resources, good crowds @ home & away games and most importantly; good young men within their program!
 

I am an assistant at Franklin and my son is friends with a fair amount of their current and former players....I believe all of those young men are quality people. 
 

They did graduate a lot of talent this past year but their 2020 class has a fantastic shooter and quality stretch big. Their middle school feeder school had a very strong team as well. 
 

If you’d like more info, please provide a phone number via direct message and I’d gladly answer any specifics.

Thanks for the great info. I'll pass it on to him and if he is interested beyond this I'll either DM you his number or my number. Thanks again!

Houston HS hires former NBA Champion player & Univ of Memphis AC Mike Miller as new head coach. Miller's son Mason is a D1 wing prospect on the team. Big time hire.

I'm not saying at all that Miller isn't a "big time hire" nor am I saying he won't be successful, but obviously w/where the program was before Charlie Leonard got there to where it is now, HE was the big time hire for this program. Hopefully Miller will be able to continue the upward swing Houston is on. Hiring former NBA players has not worked more than it has worked, but I have a feeling Miller will do great and I certainly hope so. Being from Fl I am a fan!

Talent will win games regardless of the coach. Granted the coach can screw it up but talent will win 2/3 of the time. 

Take Wooddale for example in 2015-2017 seasons Wooddale won 2 games. It was pitiful. The coach of that boys team left and became the girls coach at Houston High. More on that in a second (see below) Wooddale dropped to AA then the Lawson brothers come to play with their dad. Boom. State Champs. I've heard it from Keelon Lawson's former players at Hamilton (D1 and overseas pros) that he is a horrible coach. They years her won he had talent running out of the cracks.

Wooddale's former boys coach has a record of  112-18 in 4 years. Houston's girl's were loaded with talent. Same coach no talent at Wooddale. 

Miller likes Germantown. He could have moved just about anywhere he wanted. He will probably get an assistant job where ever his son lands to play in college. He is a great guy and the perfect hire for Hosuton right now.

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      By Summit22 · Posted

      Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2.

      It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      By BDURHAM · Posted

      Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
