You sure are right GCMPats,There was alot of "love" going on about the man.......I don't even know him but I'll tip my hat to him......I wonder how the trend would have been "IF" BH would have beat GCM......The hardest thing about being a baseball coach from little league to the big leagues is when your winning everybody loves you but when you lose,you are a no good for nothing,I dont know why they hired you,sorry sum a fitch...I LOVE THIS GAME!!!!!!GO GANDERS...

The man retired mainly for health reasons.....nothing to do w/ BH vs. GCM. Nothing to do with winning or losing. The man has done plenty of winning.

Not saying it had to do with BH GCM game just saying they should of left the man alone and stop bashing him thats all....Hate the skipper or not he still the skipper and us as parents need not bash him because it really gets in our kids head and the team don't play to the ability everyone knows they can...real talk....GO GANDERS....

I don't see much bashing going on.  A lot of these posts are thanking Gil for his service to BH and to the kids.  You Goose Creek folks just seem to want to stir the pot.  Everyone thought he was coming back next year until he announced it to us at the Sports Banquet that he was retiring.  NO ONE forced him out!!!!

The parents from BH have been running  Coach Stalbaum and Byrd down on this forum for years, and most of it stems from the lack of play time their kids received. If it's not all about me it can't be good.

When will they hire? Any front runners?

[Guest GCMPats]

I've heard who they want. Not sure he'd be willing to leave his current position.

[adminbaberuth]

They being AD or adminstration?

[Guest GCMPats]

Administration.

Doesnt matter who they decide on. As soon as he doesnt win state he will be persecuted.

I wouldn't say that. Stalbaum made it 23 years and left on his own terms without winning state and he wasn't persecuted.

Kinda shoots holes in that statement doesn't it. How do so many "outsiders" know so much more about BH athletics, baseball in particular, than the folks associated with BH  ???

  Have not heard much on updates as applications go. When the football/AD job was open, the list of applicants was posted.  Hope they make a wise choice.  I guess the summer baseball (Connie Mack) will be starting, hope the have a new coach to watch some of the games to see whats coming up next year.  I heard a few kids are'nt playing.  Hate to hear that, the more you play with the kids you play HS ball with the better the team will be.  I guess some are looking at greater things and had such a good season, they don't need it.  Did hear that most key players are playing.

I've heard over 80 applicants. Several names that would make great choices.
