Mays fired from Ashland
#41
(11-16-2022, 10:01 AM)16thregioner Wrote: What facts make this OK?
In my opinion, Mays deserved to be fired because he got caught talking badly about his players on his team in an effort to lure the son of the recording father.  I don't know how he could win back respect of his team after that.  Ashland should have let him go when the recording was released.

What facts make this NOT OK?
Mays got caught recruiting, but it happened via malicious entrapment by a Boyd County parent.  Boyd County has benefited more from transfers across their athletic program than any school in the area over the past 5 years.  If you truly believe the many transfers that have enrolled at Boyd County over the past 5 years were done without any backroom conversations with coaches and administrators, then you are either a low IQ person or just dishonest.  At best, you can just claim they're better at not getting caught.

What will happen to Jason Mays?
Who knows?  The man has been going through a difficult family time and I truly feel bad for him at this point.  He is clearly a great coach who worked hard for his players to benefit himself, but he belongs in a bigger city where high school sports aren't such a big deal to generations of people who tie their identity to the success of a school.  Look at Nathan McPeek.  He was run out of Fairview by Ashland and Raceland, yet now he coaches the best football team in the entire state and regularly sends his players to power 5 schools.  There is a place for coaches like Jason Mays...just not in these parts.

What will happen to the Ashland boys basketball team?
I'm sure we will find out before December 2nd, their opening game, if they can participate in district and region play this season.  If the KHSAA punishment follows the Rose Hill basketball and Fairview football situations, then they won't be suiting up in the post-season this year.  I hope for the players sake that they somehow get to compete, though.  As for the coaching situation, who knows?  One Ashland coach, ironically from Boyd County, was specifically implicated in the recruiting so I'm not sure if this is a purge of the entire staff or not.  If Ashland hires someone internal, then people like 16th Region Baller get his way and his boy might get to play.  If Ashland hires someone external, then the candidate better be squeaky clean which means he's likely never won anywhere before.

What will happen to the Ashland boys basketball transfers?
It's being floated that Boyd County has petitioned the KHSAA to deem a couple of transfers ineligible to play, specifically one that the recording father has a special hatred for per his call.  This is disgusting to me and further casts Boyd County in a terrible light.  From the father admitting on his call to harassing the boy during open gyms to Boyd County turning him away from admission to their Homecoming dance this year, I don't know if I've ever seen a school show a single player so much hatred.  I hope all the Ashland players get to play but if they don't, I hope there are some attorneys who will step up and cool off Boyd County's fervor against Ashland and specifically this player.
Completely agree with your statement. What stood out the most to me was his comments of his current players. I just don’t see a way that relationship changed if he would have stayed. I personally don’t like high school recruiting and I like coaches that win with what they got, make no excuses and develop that winning team. I would like to know all the other recruitment that hasn’t surfaced yet.
