I think some new blood is needed, I personally would be against the Bostics being the Head Coaches at the Boys and Girls programs. I feel both would be much better suited for the job than our current head varsity coaches.

I think some new blood is needed, I personally would be against the Bostics being the Head Coaches at the Boys and Girls programs. I feel both would be much better suited for the job than our current head varsity coaches.
Are you talking about Kori Bostic? Didn't he move to Lee High?
He is still helping coach on the football team.
Yes, Kory is teaching at Lee High. He was screwed over big time. But him and his wife both live in Big Stone. He coaches football and his wife help coaches volley, jv girls basketball, and head tennis coach. They both have been assets to our school and community. Kory needs to be on the sideline whether it's with Crockett or not. I would love to see him the basketball coach. He came from a great program and I agree, there needs to be some new blood. You've got to be willing to be committed to the program and put the time in.
I know Kori and Brandi well. My wife graduated and played ball with Brandi @ Coeburn for four years. Being committed to the program has been the problem not only with the coaches but the players.
Crockett's biggest flaw is that he hardly does anything with his 5th, 6th, and 7th grade boys. Some kids don't even know who he is! I know they have a league called Future Vikings. He needs to support that group 100%. This is his future!! I have been told he has done a little this year but not near enough... Championship teams start early, not late.. Just ask Coach Robbins. He is on the peanut field every day watching young athletes, helping coachs, and he also knows almost all those young kids!!
thas good and all, but there really isnt enough hours in a day for a guy to spend considerin he has to get his varsity team ready, worry bout the jv-the next generation, then the 7 and 8th graders. I mean in the lpd you usually play twice a week, and 8th grade plays on other nights, like monday and wednesday, so when is he or any other coach supposed to go watch the 4-7th graders?
Yes I think the youth is the future, as dumb as that sounds, but that is why you have to have good quality coaches teaching fundamentals to these kids at an early age. I can't count how many coaches I had who it was very obvious they had never played a second, but beggers can't be choosy.
Football coaches have more time to watch the games, for us practice usually ended around 6:30 or so, and as we was comin down to the fieldhouse, Saunders would just take a left and go out and help with the pee-nut football team. Not to mention the younglins at wise usually played on saturday.
You've got to make the time. You can't put open up the gym 10 minutes before practice, then walk out the door when practice is over. Open up the gym during the week, or in the off season and let the kids come in and shoot around. Stay a little after practice is over and work with certain kids on things. You can't just be a coach during the season. You have to put your time in in the off season too. Crockett needs to make the time. If he wants to be successful and have a good program he's got to start young. As for the girls program, they only have a 7th & 8th grade program. Nothing besides that. They'll never have a good program if things don't change
Amen Dukies I think you get it!!! 5th, 6th, 7th grade basketball starts before the varisity can even start practice!! I heard they couldn't even get gym time! The middle school will work with them but you can forget the high school!!!
That is why they have a middle school I thought. The high school gym will already have 4 teams vying for practice time much less a bunch of 5-7 graders. Come on folks, use your head.
