I didn't play basketball for him. Fat guys and "hills" dont mix. But he was without question the most influential person in my 10 years I spent in the city school system. Whether it's jus talking to him in passing, or listening to an interview, I still listen to every word he has to say, thinking he may say something that I could learn from. I hate the thought of me wanting to see JC win this game tonite. I think it's only appropriate for him to reach the big stage one more time, especially with this group of kids he's lived and died with the last 5-6 years. Win or lose, the first thing I will look for and keep my eyes on when the buzzer sounds, is Coach and just how he reacts. For him personally, I hope its in joy and celebration of making it thru one more time, cause I know no matter how glad I would be if JC pulled off the upset, I would be more sad seeing his reaction and realizing it was his last game. Just wish him good luck, tonite and for years to come.

:lmao:
okay the fat guy and hills comment was HILARIOUS....I think No matter what at the end of the game tonight ...everyone needs to give Coach just one more moment in time....How sweet to go out this way!!! He is a wonderful man...and agree or disagree I can't think of another coach in 15th region that has stayed with a program as long as he has and had as much success...Plus lets not forget the amazing ball players that came from Paintsville during his era..that went on to college and did wonderful things!!!

Just something to ponder on....Have you ever took a look at the audience and followers of PHS basketball??? Well I would say ALOT of BMR's previous ball players come to support him....last night alone you had...B.phelps, J.Holbrook, Matt Williams,. Walt Crace, Brian Hale, Keith Adkins was there...and more WOW !!! How many other coaches can say that their previous players are that supportive!!!
