Any body can take a A team with all talent n go win.
You need to read the last sentence you just said 🤣🤣 NO apparently ANYBODY can't take an A team n go with it hahahaha. Gray sure does have the talent and had it for now his 4th year BUT where has the team went? I'll answer that for ya NOWHERE. Oh, and walking out on kids and not having faith 🤣🤣🤣 just wait and see what Gray does. Lol

cchsfan4life Wrote:He did resign......however get your facts straight....he asked for a commitment from the board because he knew that the next year would be a down year and most likely a losing record. Behind the scenes if he would have had a losing record they would have fired him and hired Gray anyway. Therefore he resigned. The board sewed into what they have now so therefore they are reaping the results.....or lack thereof.
Agree 100% they got what they wanted and the parents got what they wanted but now hate what they got as far as going to the school board on him. The ole saying you reap what you sew is true 🤣🤣 OH and don't worry Gray will drop team SOON....as in probably after this year. Don't throw rocks at a glass house 🤔🤔

Say what you want.......I have no dog in this fight but I guarantee you this if Marcum was the coach we would have made it out of district the last 2 years and this group of kids would have had an opportunity to play at Rupp. And as far as taking an A team with talent and winning....what has the current staff accomplished???? Anyone in this county knows how the politics work in sports...and when you are not in with the current elected members.....your a sitting duck!

Robert was a way better coach!! But when the news paper and the board want you out your done! 🤭 So now clay co has this so called super team but canât make it out of the district..🤔 that tells me gray should have been gone 2 years ago! He can coach grad school but he needs to leave high school to someone else!

I donât believe they win the district. I watched this team several times last year, they refused to play any defense, coaching is suspect.

If Dinky Phipps ever coached at a bigger school he would have won multiple regional titles. Wonder why Knox Central never hired him?

Lets see....Marcum did have some good talent his last few years.....but I think people miss the fact that he took a team that wasn't even preseason top 5 in the region and won it on the #1 team's home court. He went to the regional final every year except 1......he did have some good players that came through....but in Clay all I have heard for the past 5 years is how this group of kids has the potential to make noise in the state tournament....THE STATE TOURNAMENT........and they can't even get out of the district???? So yes having talent is good and can help but it isn't everything...ask your coach.......he had the best player in the region in Taylor for how long??? How many regional titles did he win? Better yet how many times did he beat Clay?? The powers that be wanted Gray in charge because of his connection with them some of the kids and parents from grade school.....so now they are reaping what they sewed.

Yep, sounded like he could have left several times.
He did a great job with underdogs. Barbourville was loaded a couple of times in the 90s and got upset in the district.

Tony P at Corbin is the best in the 13th.
