Never said it was the right thing just stated that the old adege (sp) what goes around comes around. To the McNamee comment not that is def. not right and yes I am afraid that Rowe maybe succumbing to politics. However, none of the coaches have been fired, IF they do not sign the resignation papers then it is fact in the decision of the site base council. Then if they choose to fire the coach that is on their head. If they dont then it is then the decision of the BOE, however we all know no blood is going to be smered on them. SO all in all if the coaches wish to fight it they have the oppurtunity. Now to Mark, yes I have heard that his job is in jeporday however there is no politics in that move. That move is directly shadowing what he has done as an assistant and head coach. If his record had shown promise then the move would not be made if he is forced to resign. He has had three seasons to show what he could do as a head coach and has shown no improvement from what he did at the freshman and JV level. Yet again I am not trying to say any of this is right but that is the way things work with any business, its sad but true. Also I still stand by that the thought WAS in fact running through Butchers head to leave since his wife had lost her job and if im not mistaking had the option for a job in the lexington/Mason Co. area. In which she is workign as a drug rep. now also if im not mistaking which is was she was doing in Pike Co. My suggestion would be if your a coach and you trying to be forced out if you truly love the school and community fight it and dont sign the resignation papers, it could be said its just as much the coaches faught for not fighting it as it is the coaches. By the way when Tussey was forced out it directly reflected the schools admin at that time as did Poynters resignation and NOT pressure from the BOE, IMO thats a little bit worse. But as I said none of it is right!!

Well said and you probably have much more insight to the ongoings at PC than I do but you can guarantee that the previous administration had the BLESSINGS of the BOE prior to coaching changes. If ALL these changes, past and present, were made for the betterment of kids, then great. But most of us know that is hardly the case. Most of this nonsense can be traced to board member races, who you support, didn't support, etc. not what is best for our kids. This is the type of leadership we have in Pikeville with Roger Wagner, Ralph Kilgore, and Roger Johnson. And who do we have to blame? Those $30 a month board members who hired them. I will step off of my soap box now but to tie this in to the thread, the changes that have been made directly effects why the girls basketball team may not be performing up to expectations.
