Re: Watauga High School Hires Female to Coach Boys Basketball.
To DaphneUrquhart and GregPercussion - Your stating an obvious. - I am trying to get into a deeper conversation about the molding of young men by a female coach at the high school level where as a teenager your brain starts to shift from zombie mode to critical thinking. Are boys apt to listen to a ...

Re: Watauga High School Hires Female to Coach Boys Basketball.
Happened for us in North Myrtle Beach High School. Darcie Vincent, yep her, is now head varsity basketball coach here for the Chiefs which is the first female coach for a male varsity sports program in Horry County. She replaced a local legend, Alvin Greene, who was building a pretty good program an...

Pondering thoughts and open for feedback from those that have experienced a similar scenario or a reversed scenario of males coaching females in High School. Is High School a good or bad time for opposite sex coaches in Sports? Hopefully the hyperlink works below for the article. https://www.wataug...

Re: Long Time Local Referee David Shervington Passes
He was a consistent helper where help was needed - hard to find someone with that track record of officiating at the multiple levels of sports and across the sports board. Officials can be hard to like because you are always wanting your team to win - but at the smallest level of sports he would try...

Re: Men's Basketball Coaching Search
Anyone have some salary range ideas of what we are looking to pay a new coach? What about Bryce Drew, he just got let go at Vandy - Lets aim higher than Lutz - I feel like there is a coaches son on a bench somewhere that might need a job, similar to Ryan Odom, he was in our backyard not to long ago...

Re: Men's Basketball Coaching Search
I have a feeling all the names talked about on here and in the media at this time are not going to happen. I think any leaked list at this time is a head fake to cover up the 2 guys Gillen is going after. Time will tell but the football hire was hidden from most peoples view. Maybe we need to turn t...

Re: MBB: Tx State @ App State 2PM HCC APPVISION
Hard to talk bad about a team you love and want to win-win-win, but man this team is not a team. We have scoring guards, NBA players sons, other names of names, but who really leads this team on and off the court? The game plan seems to be lets give the ball to 2 or 3 players and stand around and wa...

Re: Student Section Name
Now that its b-ball Season - has this naming gotten any traction? What about "Insaniacs" - play cypress hills "Insane in the Brain" over and over - anyways the team has some talent this year and hopefully will be in the top 5 of the sunbelt. Give em hell!

Re: Best receiving corps in App Stae History
A conversation on the Sun Belt forum got me thinking. Two questions related to the best group of receivers at App: 1. Best starting three 2. Best total group (considering depth) For simplicity, only consider on-the-field performance (cough, Price, cough) and don't consider performance in the pros. ...

A friend of his has been hired and is looking for information. I am woefully uninformed on this topic. I know that housing in Boone is high, so where w...

Re: Tubby Smith to High Point
HPU is building a new basketball arena on campus. This was a no brainer as far as the next coach. There's little to no student support on campus for basketball. Soccer and lacrosse draw more students Help me understand High Point University if you can and or send me a link to a good article. As a r...

Basketball Admission $
Does anyone know if they charge $$$ to attend the exhibition b-ball games? If they do charge what is the reason for charging? Going further - if they do charge, seems odd if they want to build attendance that there is a constant charge for the games. I also rarely see free promos, locals attend free...
