You said the same exact same thing about Trimble ???
Coach Scott Cooper the HC has NO kids on this team?
I don’t understand your statement about “daddy” “mommy”
“g-pa” ball???
Or you simply just trolling threads stirring the pot with the same statements about struggling programs ????
All this daddy ball crap is how much the parents think they know more than the coaches and want to put their 2 cents in whenever they can. The parents have filled their kids head with "its all about me" type of attitude and when realization sets in that they are not very good they want to blame the coach and walk out on him. What a disgrace. RV will never have success until this mindset changes if it can at all. Why are you scheduling teams like SG, Fed Hock and Manchester? You thought scheduling Eastern again could get you a win and oops. hahaK00ND0GGER wrote: Thu Sep 15, 2022 4:59 pmI wasn't the one who mentioned it first regarding RV.

Daddy ball can ruin a program for years. I've seen it happen. But the powers are sometimes afraid of the loud voices and they don't really care enough about the program to fight it. It's easier to give into them so they take the easy route. The kids are the ones that suffer though. But boy daddy, mommy and G'pa are happy for a while, until they lose and then they have to find someone else to blame or move their little Joey to a different school and start the process all over again. For gosh sakes it can't be that Joey just isn't any good, can it?JohnDenver wrote: Thu Sep 15, 2022 5:08 pmAll this daddy ball crap is how much the parents think they know more than the coaches and want to put their 2 cents in whenever they can.

Exactly! Well said. Leadership in Gallia county let their coaches hang out to dry when it comes to blame time, but they micromanage in ways that are ridiculous. Coaches can’t raise and spend monies they need in Gallia local like in most other places, just to name one thing. Look at Point Pleasant. Darst runs that program from top to bottom and admin gets the hell out of the way. He doesn’t have to beg for resources and can raise whatever isn’t in budget that program needs. He wins at a school that was not a great program when he took over. His success could never happen in GCLS. They’d never give him the freedom to lead without their stamp on it and bringing him to heel to show who’s boss. GCLS, nothing, absolutely nothing happens without going thru the cabal at central office. The board won’t do anything that makes their relatives and friends at central office look bad. They want their fingerprints on any possible success and nowhere to be seen on any failure. No one in admin backs the coaches because it isn’t good for career and besides, chances are they’d be overruled anyway so why even bother. This isn’t the right response by admin, but it is understandable…sort of. The parents are enabled by the nothing burger Incompetent GCLS leadership. Leadership at top level must be the thing that changes the environment. Doubt it will ever happen.K00ND0GGER wrote: Thu Sep 15, 2022 5:13 pmDaddy ball can ruin a program for years.

Because the new AD is clueless…parents think the coaches are responsible for that…unfortunately that’s not the case at RV…JohnDenver wrote: Thu Sep 15, 2022 5:08 pmAll this daddy ball crap is how much the parents think they know more than the coaches and want to put their 2 cents in whenever they can.

I could go on and on. We need to get rid of "dickhead" fans and parents that make excuses for the kids and blame the coaches. Take your kid to Ironton or 'Burg and see what happens when you don't go to the weightroom, skip practice, take vacations during August . . . I guess Coach Pendleton and Coach Woodward are "dickheads" because they run disciplined first class programs.

Not enough men with testosterone around in charge anymore!
What happened to when you walked out like that you were off the team? 2 of my kids have graduated from RV, 1 played football and they didn't win more than a handful of games in 4 years, so in comes a coach who yells and makes them work harder than they have to make them better and they complain and walk out? Parents really need to stop telling their kids they are the best and don't need to listen to the coaches, we are seeing it again in jr hi sports with our 3rd, because some peoples mindsets never change. They were the best in hs or the kid was in youth leagues so they already know everything and that is one reason why RV sports are terrible and will never get better.SlimPickins wrote: Thu Sep 15, 2022 4:30 pmIt was an organized team mutiny, apparently.
