Nothing would totally surprise me about Thomasville City Schools these days. But I don’t have any reason to think that will happen. The disciplinary issues are real. I would hope that the win/loss record wouldn’t be a reason to take any action this soon.

A lack of discipline certainly contributed to his departure. But it had nothing to do with the kids’ discipline.
Sloppy game and penalties killed them. Played into the Rville plan running up the middle and off tackle too much against that big DL. Waited until Rville had a long scoring drive to adjust to the B gap dive and off tackle run. Did not use their speed and cannot complete a pass to save their lives.
that's bad inexperienced clueless coaching for you. Brown or Gillespie and his staff could have taken that same team and had a winning season.
If that were true one of them would still be coaching. Shouldn't have burnt bridges with Benjie since you love the Browns so much.
Benjie was going to come back a few years ago but the school board messed that up. If you think that this flag football coach is that right guy for the job, you are clueless.
You’re mostly right about Benjie. But it was another board, not the school board, that nixed the opportunity. While I very much wanted Benjie at that point, I believe he would have followed through with his retirement plans and would only have coached for two years. So maybe not the best long term solution.
What the school board did screw up was the failure to consider Benjie for superintendent because he didn’t have central office experience and then hired the principal from Page…..who had no central office experience. That was expensive and started the non-stop process of revolving door superintendents.
That's why I said "shouldn't have burned bridges with Benjie."
Didn't say he was but I want stability. Looking for coaches every two-three years wont fix anything. For the most part fix the offense and the team is fine. Defense was solid for the most part. If we go 4-7 again I'll on the fire the coach bandwagon. If you think coach George is a flag football coach then that shows how clueless you are. It also says alot about our opponents coaches considering many barely beat us.
Only two teams that you say barley beat us Andrews and north rowan. What coaching experience dose George have and how much since you seem to like the way this guy called plays.
imma say it again. dude was hired a week before the season practices started! Anyone who has played high school football knows that every other team already has had their offense installed for months at that point! You know how deep we were into our offensive playbook by the time camp started in 04? We started in January with weights and then by march we were all on running different plays, not to mention his system had already been around forever!! Anybody who expected a team that lost as much players as they lost to graduation and hired a coach that late to have a grand season needs to reevaluate their own expectations. Me personally looking at that timeframe didnt expect them to win a game personally! I have people that will tell you i said he wouldnt win a game just like i'd been on record saying even before Gillespie left that this season would not be one of our best seasons. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the defense. Im interested to see how it all comes together after having a full offseason.
