Buna wins 68-63.  Good game by both teams.  Coldsprings faltered at the end.  Good job by Buna to drop back on defense.  Trojans we’re very quick tonight, congrats on your season.  Congrats to the Coogs on advancing to round 3.

Thanks @watup for the compliment. Good luck to The Buna Cougar in round 3

Weren’t some people on here calling for the coach’s job earlier this year? Did he make some changes or did his decisions end up being the right ones anyway?

There was a poster always saying how undisciplined the team was playing. Idk if he was asking for the coach to be fired though

I must have missed that gem.  I do remember one basketball aficionado posting that Whitmire was one of the most underrated coaches in our area.  That guy is almost always right by the way.

You’re always going to have those whining, crying, and pitching a fit calling for a coaches job. They’re waiting in the wings to pound their chest when their team falters and can’t wait to throw it out there, “I told you so.” That’s never going to end when it comes to small schools. 

Those types remind me of a bunch of seagulls. All squawk.

Usually because their kids were sore after practice/workouts or didn't get enough playing time.

Correct.

 

I haven't seen that poster on here in awhile. 

Oh I’m still here. I never once called from him to be fired. Whit just does things different than I would and I can’t put up with turnovers over and over. I don’t have a kid on the team just like basketball so don’t say anything about my kid not getting playing time. My boys played plenty and had good careers for Whit and they both should have been benched at some point too for turnovers.

If anyone from Buna wants him gone consider it a very very very small group. Whitmire will be there until he wants to move or retires and deservedly so. Not only is he one of the best players to walk through Buna High he is one of the best coaches behind the great Cotton Robinson to walk the sidelines as well. I’ve always been a huge Whitmire supporter and this year has been a testament to how good of a coach he truly is.

    • Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?
    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success.
