Over the years, I have seen mountain schools based just because they are from the mountains.

I have also noticed that, whenever there is a coaching change, it usually involves some type of political posteuring.

Are there more politics involved in mountain athletics? If so--WHY?

Or--am I barking up the wrong tree?

(Disclaimer: I am in no way trying to bash Mountain sports--I am actually trying to learn/understand a little more about it--please understand--I am interested in your opinion--I am not interested in bashing).

i think there is a certain amount of politics everywhere you go.. However, in the mountains, there is more politics involved with basketball than any other sport i think.. It's not always just a money factor though, a lot of times it's who ya know, and all that jazz..
