I agree with this, I think they could have been a lot better than they were. No reason they shouldn’t have won a state championship while they were there. 

I don't know Buchanan at all, but I've watched his teams play at the state tournament the last couple years.  I don't think it is an accurate or fair statement to say there's no reason they shouldn't have won a state championship.  In 2020, they lost to an absolutely loaded Greenfield team (3 D1 players).  In 2021, NG was beaten by a Summertown team that was just flat better than NG.  This year they lost to McKenzie, who went on to win the state championship.  NG should not have won any of those games.  I thought they were the preseason favorite this year but the post player was never the same after coming back from the medical issue - that's certainly not Buchanan's fault

Nobody is paying attention to you because you are annoying 

I’m not here for attention…Unlike you! You have no logical answers just as I thought. Just asked why you have such a strong opinion of him now, prior to February, your opinion wasn’t pointed in this direction. But, the truth speaks volumes…You have no reasons to list. My point is proven that you have no ground to stand on to call him a terrible coach.

Thank you BeltonIHOP for that useless information when he is .800 against trash can teams. And under .500 when he plays good ones.

I get you are upset about something Buchanan has done but what has changed so drastically from last March when you were singing his praises?  You went from all about him to he is trash playing trash teams.

Has he won State Championships, no but he has taken NG to quite a few state tournaments and also one of the top teams in the region year after year

I definitely didn’t think he coached with any energy and the team didn’t play with any energy. Not sure it would have mattered in the end but probably would have been a much better game. I will say I was very disappointed in the support from the community, only about 10-15 in the student section as there was no fan bus and not many NG fans there in general. I thought this team deserved better than that with all of the hard work they’ve put in over the years.

It would have been nice to see a larger crowd. I am aware of several that wanted to support them, however gas prices, room rates, work, prior engagements, etc. kept them from attending. 
I noticed that many teams (girls and boys) had zero student section nor cheerleaders and some closed schools for it to pack the stands. Some won with no community support, some won with having the stands full. Unfortunately, you never know how any of that will influence their performance.

Those are fair points. It’s just frustrating when you see these players work so hard for years to try to get to this point and it just looks like people didn’t really care enough to come watch and support them at the biggest stage.

Daniel Boones coach resigned today. The writing has been on the wall for upcoming Boone kids. Can't say I blame them to jump ship honestly.  

Boone had the best coach about 4 years ago but choose to run him off. No one to blame but the administration they are sorry

Eagle everyone has the right to their own opinion. When you coach some will like your coaching and some will not, that’s just how it goes. I think he is very knowledgeable of the game, maybe not the best motivator. I don’t think anybody expected them to win it all in 2020 or 2021, but this was suppose to be their year with the new classification and returning a group that has played together for so long, but it didn’t work out. They did run into a very good McKenzie team, but I’ll still say there wasn’t much energy from him or the team at that game.

Not surprised at all. Not saying he was a bad coach, but I always felt like he was there to just manage the remains of what Mains had built while it was still there.

Mains was the real deal. His daughter is even better I wish they would have stayed local and played around here she was fun to watch.

    • 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.
