GAHS vs Meigs

[tvc_fan]

May have been a little closer without injuries. How many points did the injured players have when they went down?

Mattox had 1 point when he went down in 1st period...has averaged 27 ppg in 2 games and Darst went down in 3rd, not sure how many points he had, but he was keeping MEIGS in the game with rebounds and cluttering up the paint.

Pretty legit excuse, had one varsity starter on the court from last season.

Sounds like the same thing for Meigs each game.

Could be a long season with the injuries mounting.

We dont make excuses at Meigs Hig School. We just win championships. Its not the kids fault we have bad coaching and that our schol is too poor to give us the things we need to dominate on the hard wood. Usually when we lose a game its because of two things:

1. The refs cheated - see southern game

2. We ran out of time - see GA game.

We dont make excuses.................yet you list two. Please continue your list for the remainder of the season. You should have plenty of L's in the column for an excuse to follow.

I think the post from Marauder Madness may have been "tongue in cheek"

Yet this will be final year for him and the football coach will remain

I would think with Bartrum's pedigree, he will stay as long as he wants.

[Fonzie]

Like it or not, Bartrum will remain at the helm as long as he wishes. This question belongs in the football forum, but I'll ask anyway, if you got your way and ousted Bartrum, who would be your replacement?

anybody that can 50% of their games would be a improvement

pedigree don't make you a winning coach At least not Bartrum

True, but pedigree goes along way until people stop coming to the games. $$$$$

I think it was just expected that Coach Bartrum would succeed because he was a pro, and a very good one at what he did. That literally translated not at all. A great player definitely doesnt aslways mean great coach. I actually imagine it would be very difficult to develop a high school offense after being accustomed to pro offenses for 13 years. Might be hard to adjust back to that, especially the way the game has changed. What's hurt his record is not necessarily his coaching, although you could question some of his decisions but that's typical. It's a result of overscheduling. The non-league schedule has been very stout for the most part since he arrived. Can't really knock him for trying to step up the program, but the program just wasn't where it needed yo be to do that. As for Coach Chancey, he is a better coach than most and had a solid program at Meigs for a long time. Having said that, comparing their records really doesn't necessarily tell the whole story about whos the "better" coach.
