Did Coach Quinn skip the district meeting? If so, that could be a reason why he's in hot water and quite frankly that would change my opinion of this whole situation.kidsarewhatmatters wrote:So im hearing that the raiders may be looking for a new coach after just one season by Coach Quinn. Parents unhappy, school board members maybe involved who knows but i saw they had 0 kids voted to all district team. I always thought any coach deserves more than just one year.

Re: What is going on at River Valley now?
I felt like they had a good pool of candidates to choose from last year, and this includes Quinn, their were also a few young guys on the girls and boys side who were passed up on.

So your saying don't take a kid out if the game that gets a technical or cusses out the opposing teams bench? Dr. Lou you need to apply for the rv basketball job. That community would love a guy like you.
Re: What is going on at River Valley now?
No I am referring to game suspensions. I agree that a kid who gets a technical or does something inappropriate that you see or are told about by an official on the floor does have to come out of the game.Prep Expert wrote:Dr Lou wrote:No, what I am saying is discipline is not always associated with loss of playing time.

I think Howie is too smart to take this dead-end job. They'll be lucky if they find a coach who is willing to put up with the crap at this school.

Athletics is in decent shape as well, they dont have pay to play they have everything paid for. Sounds like a mess to me?? Richard Stephens will tke care of getting a good coach .
If you want to have a successful program you hire a good coach and then allow him to run the program from fourth grade through seniors.

My expert opinion is Phil Skidmore. He will turn it around

Re: What is going on at River Valley now?
I sense sarcasm in your post but I bet you if Phil were in charge things would not be in the shape they are in at RV! At least Phil gives a darn about the kids and would find someone to coach to head them in the right direction and that's more than I can say about many that have been over the program recently. That being said I do think Quinn cared about them and deserved more time.Prep Expert wrote:My expert opinion is Phil Skidmore. He will turn it around

Re: What is going on at River Valley now?
Did anyone hear what happened at the school board meeting tonight?
Re: What is going on at River Valley now?
No sarcasm from me. Phil was the genius behind RV going to the SEOAL when the school was formed 25 years ago. That worked out pretty well for them. He will lead them in the right direction. He's been developing youth with his rinky dink program for years.sportslifelove wrote:I sense sarcasm in your post but I bet you if Phil were in charge things would not be in the shape they are in at RV!

Wasnt River Valley at least competitive the first several years in the SEOAL?
Re: What is going on at River Valley now?
Their enrollment was higher until SG opened. Could be a reason for the drop off.

So let's assume for a second that Phil had something to do with River Valley going into the SEOAL when the school was first formed. What you are saying is that Phil should have had the forsight to know that in several years South Gallia would be formed and thus should not have wanted RV in the SEOAL? So we are looking for MIND READERS for River Valley now! LOL that is awesome!
Hey why not hire a psychic nothing else has worked.
Re: What is going on at River Valley now?
Phil was on the school board when the district consolidated. Rv had invites from the seoal and tvc. The tvc was the league that fit rv. He pushed for rv to be in the seoal so they could play gallia academy. That worked out real well for rv. Rv has won about 3 times in basketball against gallia academy and was 1-10 in football against gallia. They also had an 0-40 streak in football and playing against seoal opponents contributed to that. He has ran terrible youth leagues that has crippled the program. My hope is that this guy has nothing to do with the new hire. No sarcasm with this post.
