Oh and by the way Notashelbycrestfan.. Barnes got thumped by Gaffney... Barnes can’t coach Sumpter better than that.. Fire Barnes.. your such a stupid,ignorant fan. FACT.. You would have bitched and moaned when and whomever we lost too ! I just wasn’t our night !
Dude you can ask anyone here that has been here longer than the last 6 weeks I have never been shy to say what I think about the leader of the army, and never NOT one time did I ever complain about a loss when the team was prepared to play and the coaching didn't cost us wins.
Was tonight's game decided 100% on coaching? No it wasn't but we lost chances and it could have been better.
Barnes took a team in his first year that didn't have half the talent this years team had and was a kicker slipping on and extra point from winning a state championship.
The 5 years before Barnes got to sumter they was 3-8, 4-8, 4-7, 9-6, and 7-5. Since he has been there they have been 10-3, 9-2, 10-2, 10-1, and 10-1, and that is SC 5A football. That's 49-7 in 5 seasons that a perennial losing school.
It's over with now I'm sure he will still be the coach next year and I will show up cheer and hope he improves and gets better. If not at the end of the day it's just kids playing a game. Win or lose it is fun it's just more fun when we win!
