My predictions

**Biggin** · November 7th, 2009, 01:34 AM

there are some kids im sure that dont like phil, phil has a very large personality, it rubs some the wrong way, as with anyone.

i see your point, i do. but i feel as if pv was trying to overuse what was their biggest talent, but i also see the strategy behind it. no proven QB, relying on a great player early can help ease teh transition, maybe the second half would have been different, we will never know.

Plantsman, you're obsessed. You may want to stop posting before you burst a blood vessel. I feel the anger coursing through your fingers with each keystroke as you fiendishly and proudly pound out your hatred against Coach Robbins under the absolute security of anonymity. I'm concerned about the fragility of your mental condition and recommend that you consult a shrink to deal with your anger issues.

Plantsman, believe me, life isn't about hate. I encourage you to let it go. You'll be a far happier person absent this disdain for Coach Robbins, who likely doesn't know you from Adam. I perceive that you may not have been held as a child, but that's ok. Things will get better. The sun will rise tomorrow, and there's plenty of vicodin around if therapy doesnt work. Good luck to you.

phil has seven friggin rings. SEVEN. so you are telling me a terrible coach can still somehow win SEVEN state titles? you are either completely blinded by moron, or just stupid.

largest senior class, what the heck does that count for? if kids dont play or cant play, thats not a coachs fault.

so phil will keep winning district titles, when being LESS talented than two, arguably three district teams.

people can call phil whatever they want, but they CANNOT call him a bad coach, unless they allow people to consider them absolutely clueless. clueless.

Thomas and Julius played during those years and to to mention they had great offensive lines and a great defense. Barry Jones was a great motavation for them to play hard, he loved football and he loved them. I would say if any team at the time had what PV had in those days they would win with ease.

people always seem to try and argue that, everbody makes mistakes, these are kids who deserve second chances. when someone goes too far, they go. phil has proved that.

i also dont see how PV has drastically underperformed. pv has made the playoffs every year since 1991. lpd titles, region titles, state appearance in 04, and add 7 state titles, i have a hard time buying phil's ego has cost him a great number of games

Name one player that Phil has kicked of the team himself without being ordered to?

PV DID win with ease with the Jones brothers.

and a player was kicked off this year and last year, nobody tells phil robbins what to do, he will kick a player off when he feels they deserve it.

Honestly, that is not true. What he allegedly did was against Wise Count Schools rules and VHSL rules. Before Wise County Schools adapted its rule book for what is accepted and what is not He never booted anyone off his team. The last two decisions came down from Wise County schools, this is a fact. Phil is not above rules even though you and maybe some more think he is. Sometimes he just may need a nudge in the right direction.

what are you talking about??

no one is above any rules. you obviously have something against Phil, and if i were you, i would watch what i say about people on here, ESPECIALLY if you have anything to do with PVHS.

If a kid gets expelled, yeah he is off, but i was almost sure it was a coaches/schools decision to kick a kid off the team. i may be wrong, but i dont think WCSB can kick kids off a team.

no matter what you think about Phil, he wins. The kids like him, for the most part, and he gets the best of out his kids.
I'm sure Phil really cares about an iss teacher thinks about him *rolls eyes*

You said no one tells Phil waht to do, I thought you were putting him above the rules. The coach and School plays a role in this, but the rule was put into place because some coaches and schools were not doing it when it was called for.

I do not have anyhting against Phil I am only calling it as I see it and know it.And yes you are incorrect, the Wise County school system does have the authority and right to kick athletes of of teams that violate the written code of ethics.

I am not a teacher, why would you say that? Just as you assume about me, i assume that you are blinded because you like and or support Phil. I think that is great i support all coaches in this area.

Again, can you name any player he personally decided to kick off the PV squad? I do not mind to tell you who I am because I stand behind all my statements I make. I will tell you as soon as you tell me who you are.

ok maybe there are rules now, but they must be reasonably new rules.

what is so wrong with giving HS kids a couple chances? these are young kids who make mistakes, i feel that its good that PV gives kids a chance to redeem themselves after a mistake

There rules have been in place for a while to add accountability to coaches and schools. The rules are reasonable and yes kids do make mistakes and deserve second chances. The kids know the rules before they break them and they may need to consider what the consequences will be before they do it. They have seen it happen before and realize it is for real. Just because they are relieved from the team in no way does that mean they should be given up on. I am sure they still have the right to receive a good education and still have support from their peers.
