Peebles Coach Resigns

[Five Point]

Frankie is a nice guy and a great coach. Best of luck to him. He did a very good job in his tenure @ Peebles. This job could be one heck of a good time in a few years. Good luck to the applicants.

and not someone who doesn't bleed red.

I'm curious who you think doesn't "bleed red". Can you explain?

[shljunkie]

that would be...someone who bleeds green..or blue..or any other color for that matter.

[slamdunk]

Man, that would be a little strange. That person will be the subject of many medical debates if they are bleeding anything other than red blood.

shljunkie i hardly ever post, but just read on the two sites and you always have a lot to say...by all you post and your knowledge, you should apply. it seems like you always have the best intrest of the kids in mind and never play into the drama or make sideways comments or posts about situations.

[shljunkie]

you evidently didn't get the inside humor tagyourit....but that's okay we'll look over it. Nope, last thing I would want to do is coach girls basketball. Kudos to those that do though.
tagyourit...seems you have a little chip on your shoulder. I was just responding to a post like everyone else. Chill a little.

[West Sider]

Doddridge is the man for the job

Carson DOES have High School experience. He coached Freshmen Boys last year and he also led his AAU girls team to the Nationals last summer. That said, the rumor that he has applied for the job is completely false.

Sometimes its better to hire someone from the outside who has a strong enough personality to withstand inside pressure and influence. Someone who has only the interest of the team as his priority and who cannot be accused of favoritism based on past associations.
This is not a shot at the Peebles program but rather a general observation.

I sure hate to hear Coach Frankie resigned. He always does a great job no matter what he coaches. Here's something funny......If I'm not mistaken I think he bled both red and green

[YC08]

....and by the way is that Suzie Mcfarland or Doug Mcfarland that's interested?

[indians10]

West sider what makes you think hes the man for the job?He tried coaching at Peebles a few years ago,didnt work out real well.A lot of people from North West werent upset that he left.Is there something we dont kow,that makes him the man for the job?Just saying hire Doddridge isnt enough.

[opiie94]

I heard the reason for Mr. Stevens leaving was due to taking some college classes. I think it was a time issue.

[vikings12345]

My reccomendation is that they hire Brock Caldwell. He's a teacher in the school, did a great job at North Adams developing there young talent and is ready to be a head coach. When will they know something?

[peeblesportsfan1391]

well heck Dodridge is a teacher @ the high school if thats what were going by....The coach needs to be willing to stay at the school for awhile and build the program, they also need to be a person that knows the girls well and will be able to motivate them to regain pride in the Peebles Girls program.....The biggest key however as shljunkie said is that the coach has to be willing to "bleed red"....we don't need somebody that has been jumpin up and down cheering for a rival school, and has been "trash talkin" about how much better the other school's program was..... I'm jus saying you wouldn't have Iran's president come be the President for the U.S...........within the next couple of years the Peebles girls team will have one of the best programs it has seen since they went to state in '98

[Five Point]

Any news on who they chose last night?

[shljunkie]

Stan Doddridge is the new girls head coach.

You're such an idiot!!!!

It is comments like this that will cause the Peebles program to continue to go absolutely NOWHERE!!!
