[LuvSV]

maybe i am not your typical sv fan who goes around with a mist of blue fog in my eyes, but i think of the coach of the year as a person who won all games they should have and stole a few they shouldn't. i can't honestly look back and think of one game we won this year that we shouldn't have won and i can think of several games i felt we would win that we didn't. hootie says, the girls just didn't come to play. when you are as talented as we were the last two years, the girls should come to play most always. i look at a coach who takes a young team like betsy layne and takes them into the semi-finals of the region as an overachiever as a first year coach. i look at sheldon clark who have several 8th graders, freshmen, and sophomores and beat magoffin co., paintsville, johnson central, sv, and several teams they should not have beaten, and i see a coach of the year. we did not win the district, although myself and everyone except phelps felt we should. we did not win our first round game over paintsville in the region although they lost their 10 point home court advantage by having to play on a neutral court. again, name me one game we won that we should not have. then tell me how many you felt we should have. we lost the district to pikeville last year which we had rapped up all year. we lost embarrassingly on our own floor, then went on to the expo center to find ourselves down to johnson central 54-17 in the third quarter when they took pity sake on us. we have not had two banner years. lets take j r vanhoose for instance, j r took a team of scattered players who apparently could not play for other coaches and put a team together this year who won this district, that is another coach of the year candidate. rodney is a great guy who i know and like, but coach of the year, i think someone needs to rethink that one. i know that katsfan says my name should be noLuv4SV but at least i can think for myself. i am not too in love with sv to see what is in front of me. i am in no way putting rr down, he works as hard or harder than any coach in this region, but show me the results. 19 wins is a good acomplishment that many coaches in this region would love to boast about, but he did have most of his team back and had a transfer of probably the best big girl in the 15th. again, all due respect for rodney, but why has he never won the big game as a girls coach. he did as boys coach, i think he is more suited for boys although katsfan and all the girls seem to be very fond of him. he is a very likeable person and a GOOD coach. you separate yourself from others when you do the seeminly impossible not the obvious. this is my opinion and that is what this forum is about. thanks for reading this and i am open for response. just remember, we all have an opinion. in the mean time, i am watching for something seeminly impossible to separate him from others.
