Did I get your attention....lol
As usual, the answers to The High’s problems can be found on this board. Not being funny, but it is true. The cost of living in the Ville is up and people are moving out into the counties. The closures of Mountainside and Lee Walker Heights apartments plays a big part also. If the Livingston Community falls, then it will most definitely be a wrap for the Coogs. Common sense would have you believe that the Asheville City Schools leaders are aware that a good portion of their funding for athletics could come from Asheville High Football. If you pack the stands, then it makes it easier for the girls field hockey team, which may not generate revenue, to travel and play TCR, let along, down to Tuscola. They must see that so goes the High, so goes a good portion of the operating budget. Now….B4 all you scholars jump on me, I’m only a person on the OUTSIDE looking in. A true FAN of the STANDS, as Outcast puts it (Morris Brown), so to speak. I love to reward loyalty, however, I think it is time to go in another direction and hire a quality coach. You get what you pay for. I mean, the winningest coach at the High, should have won three maybe four state titles while he coached. There is too much on the line for the ACS not to see the effects of their actions. I look at the WASTED potential standing on the sidelines when I come home. SMH. Those kids should be placed in the best possible position for success. Too much talent coming through. I now understand the plight of TCR. They have the talent but not the coaching. If I was the hiring manager for the head coaching position, which I’m not, I would spend the money to get a well-seasoned coach….could be an assistant with the potential to move up from Shelby, Mallard Creek, Byrnes, or somewhere like that. I mean, if you are going to change it….CHANGE IT. The philosophy towards football in the Cougar playbook has changed…… You remember many years ago, when it was reported that AHS gave away or spent $40,000 in weight room equipment? If you saw what is in use now, you would understand why they are in the situation they are in. Back in the day, next season began with the loss of the current. Meaning, we immediately started hitting the weight room and our books. As a military, veteran and former player, realize that a good coach can not only instill discipline, but sow a seed in the lives of the players and show them that there is more to life than football. Yes tap into the potential but show them how to go to the next level. Ok…I’m though venting. So we are talking about the upcoming Rams and Mountaineers, or was it the Rockets and Falcons…lol
