“We have not won a tvc ohio title with him, we have not won a sectional with him.
Just because he has the most wins in 30 years, does not make him a good coach, his assistant came in knowing nothing about the game of basketball, a good coach gets a good assistant.
You can base his good coaching on the Wins the previous 2 years, but no matter who was coaching, that talent would have produced those Wins. Everyone knew those Meigs kids were going to be winners since biddy league. Just like the group of 8th graders this year, everyone knows once those boys get up to Varsity they will produce Wins. With a great coach, they will make a great tourney run. That is what a great coach does.” End quote

Meigs has not won the TVC since 1987. They have won three sectionals since then, each of those were only one game to advance. So, no coach has won any significant championships. Every other year Meigs has a junior high class that will become the “saviors” of the program when they get to high school. Yet, it never happens. This year’s senior class was great in junior high. Not one of those kids are on the team now. Meigs is notorious for being “junior high champs”. They stop growing and often lose interest. No, it is not easy to find assistant coaches because no one wants to coach at Meigs because Meigs runs varsity coaches out every 2-3 years. Really tough to get teachers to coach anymore.
