Everyone loves alot of things until they don't. I've seen a lot of divorces at Cloudland. Tough place to Coach.

I guess I'm the abused housewife who won't leave.  In the past I've preached the word of what it will take to win at a high level.  My daughters just spent 2 hours beating each other up on the basketball court up in newland cause they are dead serious about walking through the Murphy center like they own the place.  The biggest challenge is getting everyone to unite and be a family.

Not as long as they are there for the right reasons.

Think back at all the coaches, its been a BUNCH. Just how many of these coaches was there for the wrong reasons. You Have, Potter,White Lunsford, Pittman, Keith, Turbyfield, only 2 that coached for a long time was Lunsford and Orr. Gotta admit thats a lot of turnover.Oh yeah,forgot Overbay.

With Cloudland being one of the smallest schools you are going to have up and down years. Cant worry about your record. Got make it about the kids and hope they have fun playing. Goal should be to win your conference and hopefully some playoff games.

Agree with that, only thing I'm talking about is how long the love affair lasts.

    • One final thought. Coach Keith claims he was not aware of the player's failing grades. I won't comment on that, just to say this, IF he did not, whose job was it to see that this kid did not play ball at CHS? That person should be looking for a job and they might be, I don't know.
    • They have fired the principal, 2 teachers, at least 1 counsellor and 1 coach so far. I don't see it from my view in Oak Ridge as a coach thing, he  was just implicated in asking 1 teacher to  fix 1 kid's grades.   In our local media(Clinton and Oak Ridge)the principal is who is the originator and pusher of the fraud. The others are peripheral. The coach isn't even the big story, just here on a sports site.  The media view is the principal did it to cause CHS to be seen as excellent by the state. He committed fraud to do that so he might spend a little time in jail IF that is valid.
    • And from coach himself, he wasn’t told he was let go because of the ineligible player.    that’s just what the schools needed to happen to fit their bull 
    • Wish it was made clear before a coach gets let go or not retained instead of being sold as the reason he was in trouble. I was told the kids who got grades changed, 97% or better were non athletes but the coach is taking all the heat so the schools can pretend it wasn’t their job to know. heck, what do you think could happen when you hire husband and wife as head principal and head guidance….   that’s not being said though…
    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe.  Last time I came up there to watch my pirates one of those guys in that pickup trucks flattened the tires on the lawnmower.  This is payback.  You can bet the lawnmower on that.
