Two weeks ago you thought he was great and you didn't even put your name on this post.

I don't know the man personnally but i'll say this...These days when your a coach and you lose everyone wants your head on a silver platter...But when your winning they are all right behind you 100%...As I said I dunno the man at all nor do I know his coaching style but if he were undefeated right now nothing would be said bad about the man...Just a thought from an outside source.

Crockett has never won though, thats kind of the point behind this entire thing. I dont blame you I'd want him to stay to so GC can continue beating us.

As I said I didn't know the situation...It has nothing to do with GC...It's that way pretty much everywhere you lose they want your head...You win they think your God...You got to take the good with the bad sometimes...But as I said I dunno the circumstances over their it was just my outside opinion of all coaches pretty much.

He's a nice guy but honestly he cant coach very well. I'm not the only one that thinks this way either, you go to any PV B-ball game and just sit in the stands with your ears open and I'm sure you'll hear it. Most are afraid to say anything but something needs to be done, however I dont think it will. If PV wanted to make a comittment to winning in basketball a change would've been made years ago.

PVfan, how many years back are you referring to? Several changes have been made. There have been four coaches in the last ten years, unless I have left one out. I agree that Crockett isn't much of a coach, but PV basketball has had to fight bad attitudes for years.

Since he got the head coaching job.

The point I'm trying to make is that PV Basketball hasn't changed in over 15-16 years. PV has always been up and down. We have always put talent on the floor, that never turned into a lot of W's. Besides the '98 team, PV's focus has been sorely on football. My opinion is that it will take a young coach who wants to promote basketball and play the politics at the school to turn the program around. What do you think?

Talk about from the Pent House to the Out House! Last year he was LPD COY and the best thing since sliced bread, now they want to run him off because GC beat them and they haven't even played each other yet!
