That story sounds very familiar. Good to hear that a district wasn't afraid to pull the trigger when there football program was in the toilet.....

I don't have blinders on, and yes it is as simple to firing someone....... I do it all the time.... If your costing me money and your not producing, your gone! It is that simple. But I'll play.... So flip the coin, say your the AD or the Super. and say the talent isn't the best but its workable, (which it is) workable enough to beat the SEO teams you should be beating.....What do you do if your seeing more and more under performing product on the field. Not only are you losing on the field but now your losing in the stands. Your losing what drives your athletic dept. and funds other sports. As an AD or Super. you know most of the previous staff has been around for years on winning staffs. And you have moved them around anyway. The HC has move to from 1 side of the ball to the other and you have already had the " Come to Jesus" meeting. As a AD or Super, what do you do Cosell?? I know what I'd do..... Welcome to the real world..... That sir is reality.

Logan has the talent within the school. Something has to be done to get that talent out on the field. I know this is football but Logan's track is slowing down too. Not as fast as the football team but over the last 2 to 3 years the program seem to be declining.

It might the real world, but it is also high school football, not life and death.

It’s okay man. I realize you are compensating for not getting a varsity letter when you were young but it doesn’t mean you are required to be a heartless donkey as an adult. Stick to business and let those with an athletic background work in that arena. You obviously aren’t/weren’t cut out for it especially if you are who I think you are.

You are incorrect once again. I have my varsity letter. If something is for sale (a game ticket) it is a business. So you are incorrect on that also. Anything that involves money trading hands is a business transaction. If you think you can be successful and not produce anything with quality, you are sadly mistaken. So again I'll play..... Given the scenarios I've given and your vast knowledge of HS sports what do you do? If you think you know who I am PM me, with your name also.

Howard, would you want to put your high school days up against 87?

Classic 9.5!!

I"ll say this. I'm know coach Burke is a very football savvy guy. I'm know he is very passionate about the game and what he does. I'm sure he cares about his players....... Well some... Does Logan have the best talent in the state.... No, average at best. But it is workable for SEO. Over the years I have seen other coaches come in and do more with the same kids (other sports included). Can Burke's tenure at Logan improve to be more consistent from year to year.. Yes. Style, consistency, and communication to his kids. Build a connection with the community. Us ole timers always saw Perry, Dale and even Wolfe at other sporting events all the time. Hell to this day we still see Amex out walking through town. If you yell "HI" at him he'll wave back and say HI. Even if he has no clue who you are. Maybe just doing that, being more personable to the community will help the program "recruit the hall". As mentioned before, the track program is showing crack..... Go help Josh and Greg or better yet go help Pat and Nick at the middle school track level. That will help show support for the program as a whole. Dale helped coach Fraun and coach Robinson for years in track. Your keeping those connections with your players and building new ones. Show support, its the little things that will get you further.

Another example of a post that is delitirious to the coach and the program he is trying to run.

You admit the truth but don’t even realize it. The problem currently is talent not coaching.
