I watched him coach last night during the course of the game and I think he is a pretty good coach. He coached the girls up throughout the game. He was positive and the girls responded well to his coaching. I don't know why you don't like him, but I think y'all ought to step back and give him a chance.Bulldog84 wrote: ↑Tue Jan 26, 2021 11:41 amNo one is trying to tear down programs. I just get on here and post facts, and the fact is, Athens will struggle to field a team next year if current coach gets new contract.

Went 6-15, 9-11, 11-9 my first 3 years, showed a great deal of improvement in each year.Raider6309 wrote: ↑Thu Jan 21, 2021 2:16 pm I mean Ryan Adams went 1-9 his first year and was 1-9 the year before. Wayne Horsley went 6-16 his first year. The year before Athens was 3-18. Hopefully Athens can rebound. They have 4 district titles and 15 years of 15 or more wins. Athens also has 15 district appearances
It’s a process, and to have parents and such come on to a public forum and tear down programs and not provide support is productive how?

Re: Athens Bulldogs 2020-21
Sometimes it takes a while(years) to turn a program around---you have to have buy in from all---coaches and parents and the players.....
Re: Athens Bulldogs 2020-21
Yes, it was a good win and it shows what the girls a capable of it they set their minds to it.

Re: Athens Bulldogs 2020-21
It's interesting, when they lose there's a lot of talk about how the coach is costing them games. Then they win a game and it was all about the girls setting their minds to it.
Disclaimer: This is all an opinion and I am therefore hoping we can still express opinions on this site without retort.
Re: Athens Bulldogs 2020-21
I noticed that also Ground Buck---- not sure what to think of it??? Its either the coach or the girls--I guess Bulldog84 will need to get rid one or the other.
Re: Athens Bulldogs 2020-21
Bulldog84 had a buddy who didn't get the job. So he'll continue to blame the coach for all the losses and give him no credit for any wins. Now, if his buddy would have gotten the job and anyone was calling for his ouster this early on 84 would be defending him to the hilt and saying it's much to early and he needs to be given more time.

Girls just looked out of it tonight, didn’t really seem interested in the game. Thankfully the season is almost over and we can hopefully start next year on the right foot.

Couldn’t possibly have anything to do with the fact that Alexander was simply the superior team?

Re: Athens Bulldogs 2020-21
Not worked up at all, actually, it’s good to get a gauge as to what type of talent you believe Athens has. To many who follow girls basketball your opinion says a lot.Bulldog84 wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 9:53 pmIt’s my opinion and I’m entitled to it, Not real sure why you are so worked up.thebarlowbandit wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 9:38 pmCouldn’t possibly have anything to do with the fact that Alexander was simply the superior team?

Re: Athens Bulldogs 2020-21
There is plenty of talent there, we just need to learn how to coach the talent.thebarlowbandit wrote: ↑Mon Feb 01, 2021 10:26 pmNot worked up at all, actually, it’s good to get a gauge as to what type of talent you believe Athens has.

Bulldog it’s obvious your frustration but hang in there . The big 3 are Vinton Alex and my beloved Marauders. Your in a battle with the bottom feeders but remember this Bulldog if you can’t run with the big dogs stay on the porch!!!
Re: Athens Bulldogs 2020-21
Oh yea, well if Bulldog's buddy can somehow get the job he'll show you. He'll come off that porch growling and pommel your your "beloved Marauders" and any one else on Athen's schedule because "there's plenty of talent there..." they "...just need to learn how to coach" it.Marauders19 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 02, 2021 12:22 pm Bulldog it’s obvious your frustration but hang in there .
