Meigs vs Eastern

[Girlbye]

Not blaming the loss on it. Saying he should’ve won every quarter if he was the best coach in the tvc, esp with those factors. Not that that was the reason they lost.

He is not a perfectly good coach. The team was willing to walk if he coached another season. He’s got two quality players At Meigs. It’s not his coaching. It’s the players. See how good he is after he loses them. He has no talent as a coach. And you had injured players and players with the flu playing from eastern and they held on three quarters what’s that say about his coaching. Lol. But ok. Meigs players don’t even like him.

Everybody out here knows he "left" because the parents didnt like his coaching. Same story, new year. Eagle fans run off a perfectly good coach.

WOW! Yet another person blaming a loss on players being sick, and saying a coach is only doing well cause he has a few good players.

[Girlbye]

Wouldn’t be a bad idea as long as Hill is no where near them they’d enjoy it.

Maybe we can arrange milk and cookies after practices

[meatswinger]

The new guy had a better record in his first year coaching than hill had his entire career coaching at Eastern. He’s about to do it again. Eastern isn’t as big as Meigs hence the different conference but let’s see what he does with them when his two key players aren’t there. And yes... one key player makes a difference two make a world of difference. It’s no secret since one can’t play today, that’s why he canceled the game with VC. He’s the only one in the county with snow issues? Uh no. Senior can’t play and all of a sudden only Meigs players have snow issues . How about you trust the rest of your team?! And as far as the family they planned on leaving since dad didn’t make the school board. And out coached? They went to a team that has won less games than Eastern so their kids could be stars. They also have been telling everyone every sports program at Eastern sucks including the football team he made it to state playoffs. You can suck Hills butt, surely, since you’re related to him it is expected and all but new coach has the best record since before Hill coached in one season. So know facts first, that’s in the record books for all to see if they’d want to look it up. APATHY isn’t the issue, had a better season without a coach who makes fun of disabled people and degraded his players and about to have the second. Meigs parents and players see the exact same. You can’t take the bull out of the bully. Again, let’s revisit this when his two key players aren’t playing... he won’t even play today without them.

Am I reading this correctly? Are you saying Coach Hill is only winning now at Meigs because he has “two quality” players? Finally someone from Eastern is willing to admit that he didn’t even have “two quality” players while at Eastern. By the way, he was not fired nor was he ever going to be fired at Eastern. Sure some did not like him, but ask around he had supporters. He left because he had a chance to leave, stay close, and still Coach. As a proud supporter of the Eagles, I always said be careful what you wish for...Hill has been gone for two years and the new guy is still struggling with the same kids. Heck, I’ve even heard the grumbling about him. Didn’t one family leave for NY due to being tired of watching Kight “get out-coached”? Total crap. Kids need to step up and get better and their parents should start working on the things they can control...like getting their kids better! APATHY is the killer of Eastern Basketball.

Man, I bet every team Meigs has beaten wish they too had "two key players" so they could win too. Just think, if Athens and Alexander had "two key players" they could have beaten Meigs.

Who said he's the best coach in the TVC? Heck, like you said he's only winning cause he has the only team with "two key players."

[Baldeagle]

I just look forward to next year at eastern when we get two quality coaches in Newman and Bowman to run the program. Two key coaches will do more for us than two key players will do for Meigs.

[ReedsvilleEaglesFan]

Unfortunately we lost one of the best coaches we've had and replaced him with one that Meigs got rid of. It's fans like Girlbye that the best ones leave. Trust me, she doesn't speak for the majority of Eastern fans. The coach she helped to run out got his paybacks on us though with a good thumping. Can't blame him after how Girlbye ran her mouth.

A majority of people at Eastern had no problem with Hill. Sure, he may of had trouble relating to kids, but his 5 year stretch happened to fall during the worst 5 years of basketball talent Eastern has seen in a long time. A select few made things very hard on him and I don’t know how he even put up with those people for so long. Be careful what you wish for because now you have a guy that pretty obviously has little knowledge of the game, but he sure can holler! Eastern has always and for the foreseeable future will be a baseball school on the boys side and those wishing for the same level of coach in other sports, you are never going to get a Bowen of basketball, so be careful what you wish for

[Girlbye]

So he wasn’t a bad coach it was not having quality players for five years, but his good season now isn’t because of good players it’s because of quality coaching
Easterns had quality players all the way back to Dash Facemyer.... A good coach can coach any kid. Look what Howie Caldwell does.

Howie is a VERY BAD example for you here. Howie is chasing talent and wins. Left Eastern after Devin graduated. Howie saw no future there or he would’ve stayed. Howie would’ve done no better with that bunch than Hill did. Love Ross Keller, but did you ever watch him play basketball. Yeah, he had to start for two years. That’s what Hill had

[Girlbye]

Point taken on Howie. Point was, a good coach, if respected, can make even what was once a losing team turn around. They have enough basketball iq to not fixate on a few players but utilize them all. Not once was it said the win occurred because of sickness and injury. It was said that the eagles held strong during the first three quarters with that. Kudos to Meigs. They have the talent and should, they have a big school to pull from. One of the key players started way back with those eagles and is a respected young man today. All the fuss about parents able to run coaches off... well that’s crazy. All matters in regard to a school and its reporting of issues are public knowledge. Grow a pair and ask for a public records request and find out ‘whose running who off’ and whose reported what about said coach. Gotta love some good ole southeasternohiopreps Users hiding behind keyboards. Eastern as all schools have some pretty questionable coaches, and some quality ones, but to say the boys side got replaced with a worse coach is crazy even if only considering their record alone last year. Jett Facemyer scores 1000 high school points during Hills reign so saying, no quality players, doesn’t seem appropriate. Either way, good luck to the Meigs PLAYERS with the rest of their season (great group with a couple stand outs) and hopefully they get this game rescheduled against VC, soon, since the snow was too bad to travel for them today.

[Ballboy]

Been a long time supporter of Eastern. Unfortunately it’s parents like Girlbye who are making it tough to keep or attract quality coaches. Believe me she doesn’t speak for all the people at Eastern concerning Coach Hill or for that matter, all the people at Meigs! She just thinks she does! I would have loved to see her and Howie Caldwell go head to head because he wouldn’t have given her the time of day! Eastern’s boys teams have NOT been strong all the way back to Daschle Facemyer! That is why Howie left. He saw the writing on the wall and went where there was more talent. Nice kids but not very athletic! Mommy and Daddy might not like to hear that but true story! I’d like to wish Coach Hill and Coach Kite the best of luck at Meigs and Eastern because with parents like Girlbye you need it!

Eastern fans were dead set on praising whoever came in after Hill. Parents can blame coaching all they want, but the players just haven’t been there for a while and it’s evident in their performance. Still no tournament wins going on 7 years. Coach Hill has proven what he can do when he does have a couple real players

[EagleFan97]

Every response is hypocritical on this thread. First it’s coach hill didn’t have talent to work with so he can’t win at Eastern. Then its he’s got talent now so he’s got a winning season. Then it’s coach hill was a great coach and Eastern sucks at everything except baseball. So you all saying coach newland sucks too? Coach Parker. Coach mummey. Coach brothers. Coach fogle who takes male athletes to state. Coach Simpson who coaches with hill and light with a B-BALL iq better than both combined. TATE athletes who quit under hill program. Meanwhile, look at the rankings. Meigs isn’t doing any better than Eastern. Both ranked fourth. Meigs did cancel their game this weekend because of ‘snow’. Only meigs couldn’t play Friday, and it is ironic their leading scorer is hurt..... and couldn’t play Saturday because coaches were out of town...

Maybe a few people who never had a kid play for hill like him. But there is still issue at Meigs that was the same at Eastern. Ask around. Not just one parent several parents and players didn’t like his coaching style. An earlier post said he couldn’t connect with players and that’s a fact. Same goes for at Meigs. But Meigs isn’t doing any better nor eastern doing any better... yet. The only difference right now is, Eastern doesn’t cancel for snow or coaches being out of town. That’s not on the players. Both schools have quality players. Stop being a grown man with your feelings hurt and get over it. Everyone sees this for what it is. What exactly has he proven he can do with ‘quality players’ get the same record as Eastern?
Barringer just hit 1,000... but Eastern has no quality players.... Facemyer his 1,000... no quality players. Going into the second season with the best record Easterns had in years. It’s ok that kids don’t respond to him. Some aren’t at Meigs either and never will. This wasn’t a one year issue. It’s been several. But that is long gone now. He’s at Meigs having the same record as Eastern with their new coach. So morale to story... Just move on and concentrate on your new team Bc at the end of the day no one really cares. He’s at a different school now more power to them. It’s seopreps folks. Not the gospel.

Eastern fans were dead set on praising whoever came in after Hill. Parents can blame coaching all they want, but the players just haven’t been there for a while and it’s evident in their performance. Still no tournament wins going on 7 years. Coach Hill has proven what he can do when he does have a couple real players

Every response is hypocritical on this thread. First it’s coach hill didn’t have talent to work with so he can’t win at Eastern. Then its he’s got talent now so he’s got a winning season. Then it’s coach hill was a great coach and Eastern sucks at everything except baseball. So you all saying coach newland sucks too? Coach Parker. Coach mummey. Coach brothers. Coach fogle who takes male athletes to state. Coach Simpson who coaches with hill and light with a B-BALL iq better than both combined. TATE athletes who quit under hill program. Meanwhile, look at the rankings. Meigs isn’t doing any better than Eastern. Both ranked fourth. Meigs did cancel their game this weekend because of ‘snow’. Only meigs couldn’t play Friday, and it is ironic their leading scorer is hurt..... and couldn’t play Saturday because coaches were out of town...

Maybe a few people who never had a kid play for hill like him. But there is still issue at Meigs that was the same at Eastern. Ask around. Not just one parent several parents and players didn’t like his coaching style. An earlier post said he couldn’t connect with players and that’s a fact. Same goes for at Meigs. But Meigs isn’t doing any better nor eastern doing any better... yet. The only difference right now is, Eastern doesn’t cancel for snow or coaches being out of town. That’s not on the players. Both schools have quality players. Stop being a grown man with your feelings hurt and get over it. Everyone sees this for what it is. What exactly has he proven he can do with ‘quality players’ get the same record as Eastern?
Barringer just hit 1,000... but Eastern has no quality players.... Facemyer his 1,000... no quality players. Going into the second season with the best record Easterns had in years. It’s ok that kids don’t respond to him. Some aren’t at Meigs either and never will. This wasn’t a one year issue. It’s been several. But that is long gone now. He’s at Meigs having the same record as Eastern with their new coach. So morale to story... Just move on and concentrate on your new team. No one really cares about this thread that’s stated a lot of truths and a lot of stretched out bent backwards lies because at the end of the day, it won’t change a thing. It’s seopreps, not the gospel.

Been a long time supporter of Eastern. Unfortunately it’s parents like Girlbye who are making it tough to keep or attract quality coaches. Believe me she doesn’t speak for all the people at Eastern concerning Coach Hill or for that matter, all the people at Meigs! She just thinks she does! I would have loved to see her and Howie Caldwell go head to head because he wouldn’t have given her the time of day! Eastern’s boys teams have NOT been strong all the way back to Daschle Facemyer! That is why Howie left. He saw the writing on the wall and went where there was more talent. Nice kids but not very athletic! Mommy and Daddy might not like to hear that but true story! I’d like to wish Coach Hill and Coach Kite the best of luck at Meigs and Eastern because with parents like Girlbye you need it!
