Warrior Proud Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 You’re exactly right. It’s not just the coaches that make up a successful program. Parents play a huge role in the athletics program. But let me just add, the community is also a very important factor. It takes an entire culture dedicated to building up kids and believing in the program to turn things around. Even through the toughest of times, and the worst games the community should be determined to show up, stay (even when they are losing) and continue to stand by the kids and coaches no matter what the outcome is in the short term. Eventually, the mindset WILL change and results will be inevitable. Great athletes believe in themselves to constantly improve. As a community member, I am purposing to promote this belief for these young athletes and this new coach by showing my support. Only good things are happening in Warren! So proud of the growth mindset that our admin, decision makers, school board members and stakeholders have. Change is inevitable for any district, and it’s a necessary evil. I for one, am ready to embrace the vision and support our Warrior Nation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They went to the playoffs this year seems to me that’s how you do things and make good decisions fire the coach that is building a program. He wasn’t “fired”. He left for his own reasons. Warren is turning a new corner with Smithey. Young, energetic, and has “been there and done it”. Let’s see what he is going to bring to the table. 5GallonBucket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 Has Warren upgraded their stadium and track in recent years? I was told awhile back the gym was new, not sure that was true or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was fired, mark it down he was fired because the sup told him if he didn’t resigned he was getting fired. Been there and done it?? He’s never been a head coach before so how has he been there and done it?? He’s a position coach. 5GallonBucket 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be hard to pass a bond issue to improve facilities with the history of the program. I still think an AD tag on a basketball or baseball guy would be an improvement but that’s never gonna happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpleeagle Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 The parents and students stuck their noses into how to or not to run the football program in Kville. See where they are now. You can’t paddle my kid. Yes, someone just like some of you on this site that thinks you know more about how to run the program than the coaches that are trained to do. In my days, if you got licks in school you got them again when you got home. A good paddling is good for the rear end. That is discipline, seems like there is something In the Good Book about It. whsalum and 5GallonBucket 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll mark it down but it’s incorrect, sorry. 🤷🏼♂️ And 6 district championships and 1 state title doesn’t qualify someone as “been there and done it”? Sheesh, your qualification list for an AD must be tough. It takes a whole coaching staff to lead a team, not just a head coach.

whsalum Posted June 13, 2021 Report Share Posted June 13, 2021 In all honesty folks we’re getting the cart in front of the horse here. The new coach could be the best in our schools history and still have the same record as his predecessor. I wish the guy the best but unless he has some kids that are blue chip recruits some of y’all are setting the bar to high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an outsider looking in these days it appears the programs that had some degree of success in the past have been neglected. Like I’ve said before I wish the new guy the best of luck but I’m not convinced coaching is the problem in Warren. In all sports it has to start at a young age with the parents being dedicated to develop the youth leagues, travel teams and most importantly a weight program. Until we turn this around we’re going to struggle. Bold amen amen and amen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, hardin has a new stadium/turf like a decade ago and they aint won a football game since 1974. So, we should be able to imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
