man of sorrows; tolar is a very good player but he will play outside the post. he is NOT a center and even if he is playing the 4 he will not be in the post he is far too valuable shooting 3's. if you know anything about meigs basketball, and i think you do, you already know this and are just trying to argue.

judging by this i would say this is his dad??

6 4 maybe these kids arent that big, Chris can be a decent player but i dont think he is going to be taking a lot of shots during a game beside rebounds. He played well as a trash player and getting his shots off of effort and hustle. I would say there is going ot be a lot of out side shots and drives along with lay ups

Just a little info on Coach Ewing. :lol: Few people know that Coach Ewing played on the only Meigs team to have a "perfect season" back in the 90's. He played point guard for the team that went 0-21! :oops: Lets hope he doesn't achieve that feat as both player and coach!

Meigs won a sectional championship under Chris Stout back in 1997-98.

thanks for the 411
what happened to coach stout at meigs? i worked with him at a summer camp and he was talking about the melt down at meigs but he did not go into detail. he was pretty upset about it though.

We all know, the best coaches are not always the best players! :-D From watching the scrimmage against trimble, It appeared that Meigs coaching staff seem to be molding their team well! From what I hear, the boys were a little shell-shocked because of the demand of hard work and discipline that is expected of them. They were not used to it! I think these kids are tired of losing and want to win. Good for them! GO MEIGS!

Coach Ewing and Coach Hawley will get the most from their team and they will be well conditioned.

Not much experience on that bench. What is Hawley's background besides Middleport park legend.

He played at and graduated from Meigs in the early 90's. I don't think he has much basketball coaching experience.

Although this is Coach Hawley's first official coaching gig, he has some coaching experience with young kids in baseball, basketball, and football.
However, why does it matter that he doesn't have much experience? Everyone has to start somewhere. Plus, he knows the game and is great with kids so I'm sure he'll be fine.

I guess it doesn't matter unless you prefer a more experienced assistant coach. I'm certain Shawn will do a fine job.

No offense meant, just an observation. And i think experience does matter in most cases, but with the Meigs Board of Education 3 ring circus they could probably care less unless they had a personal axe to grind.

I just hope that it doesn't victimize Benny like it has so many others in the past.

I agree and I'm certainly glad I don't work for that school board.

"I just hope that it doesn't victimize Benny like it has so many others in the past."

Are you saying you hope that having an inexperienced asst. coach doesn't victimize Benny? If so and it does, it would be his own fault since he's the one who personally chose Coach Hawley (but I don't think it will).
Or are you saying you hope the "Meigs Board of Education 3 ring circus" doesn't victimize Benny?
