South Pittsburg Pirates’ Coaching Search


OLD PIRATE

Recommended Posts

Anybody else starting to get the feeling that this thing is alot deeper and wider than has been exposed so far?  Lets think about it......In reality "The Captain" takes an oath to be the last one off the ship if its sinking, I mean its your ship right?    Think on that for a minute....  So when "The Captain" jumps ship during troubled times prior to everyone else getting off there is a hefty penalty to be paid.  Boys good head coaches don't walk away from programs such as this because their tired, tired of what? Winning District Titles, making deep playoff runs, winning Silver and Gold Balls.  Really come on folks. Maybe you get out when you know the cupboard is bare, so you parlay your name, resume, winning brand into a new start somewhere else, but we all know the Pirates are loaded with returning talent and probably a chance at another title run.  I don't know a coach alive that walks away from that situation.  NOPE, NOPE, NOPE!  So whats the lesson here, maybe the Captain jumped ship as part of an agreement (sacrificial lamb) with the powers to be to try and save face for a lesser punishment on the program as a whole, save his good name and scoot on down the road in a year or two after the buzz has settled and land a pretty good job, say in Georgia at somewhere like a Ridgeland who if they have another down year will certainly be looking for someone to revive the program. 

Maybe nothing else will come about this paying rent for the less fortunate or maybe some folks will end up needing Attorneys to save their good names.  Remains to be seen how involved it gets. At the end of the day kids are involved, so hopefully it all works out in the end in the kids favor.

Sounds like your in the know, school us so were all up to speed. I was just simply speculating on one possible scenario, key word being speculating.  But which part am I not even close on?

Old Pirate says, What a load of horse sit. Phil Beene gave way to Don Grider who won state title the following year. Don Grider gave way to Danny Wilson who won a state in perhaps a couple of years. Wilson gave way to Vic with a loaded team. Vic gave way to Tim Moore who played for the title in year one! Youngon, yous dumber than any box of rocks this Old Pirate has seen in a spell. Do yourself a favor & always stay in the shadows. Theys folkes that surely would want to avoid Blooming  Nut Jobs!

Sir, you probably don't know me but I might know you.  So lets keep it classy and keep the name calling out of it if you don't mind.  I'm just on here having fun like everyone else.  No since in getting your blood pressure up, sometimes that's not good for old fellers health.  But I will give you credit on your history, South Pitt has been the rare, extremely rare job that folks have walked away with good teams on the horizon.  I just don't think with what recently has transpired with the negative publicity that your coaches retiring didn't have something to do with all this.  Maybe Im wrong, want be the first time.

The speculation about Victory retiring started in August.  Said issue in previously posted story happened in Dec.  Plus, when he came back, he said it was for a 5 year stretch.  It was 6.

They're worried we turned them in. They may be upset when they know who was behind it all.

I doubt we will be upset, but what you are a saying is there was a personal agenda and conspiracy to set up the Pirates.  The sad part is the one hurt mostly is an innocent young man that isn’t going to be able to play his senior season.  The kid should be left out of this adult crybaby game.

    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.  
    • Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.
