Scott Young Playing Hockey Again


Recommended Posts

You get out to many Riverking games? The CHL is a good leauge... some good talent. I've gotten over to Shreveport for a couple Mudbug (horrible name, I know) games and have enjoyed them greatly. Then again, I could probably go to pee-wee hockey game and be greatly entertained by that.

 

BRING BACK OUR HOCKEY!!! :lol:

Unfortunately, I haven't been to any Riverkings games in a long time, because their arena in Southaven is a good 45-minute drive from my house, assuming normal traffic...but going to the games from here involves negotiating the outbound rush hour through a construction zone. I'll go to one or two before this season's up, but I haven't yet.

Ah, so really they should be the Memphis Southaven Riverkings. That's what they've done with the Mudbugs. The CenturyTel arena is actually in Bosier City so it's the Shreveport Bosier City Mudbugs...

Yeah...they also own an arenafootball2 team that plays in the same arena. They called the the MidSouth-Memphis Xplorers one year and realized that name was horrendous, so they went to the Memphis Xplorers. I'd imagine that was also their trial balloon for renaming the Riverkings.

    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job. 
    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf  
    • The administration took the path of backing the coach and whispering to people that the kid was a problem. The reality is that the kid was never a problem on a team or classroom. The player says she has witnessed who back her not saying the f-word.  Why did the coach make that story up and other stories? I am not Sigmund Freud and do not have an answer for the ex=-coach's behavior..
