RETIREDFAN1 Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 PAPA Durham is way out of touch with todays kids and baby brother is a basketball guy too. He'd do a good job with them, but he's enjoying retirement from what I hear....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndersonCountyBoy Posted May 24, 2013 Share Posted May 24, 2013 PAPA Durham cant relate to todays student. I think he would end up in trouble trying to descipline this generation of students. Retirement is the best place for him. His time has come and gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wohs80 Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 As a coach I have always enjoyed coaching against Coach Durham. He is a class act. I could not believe that he left Crossroads for MP in the first place. After reading all these "crazy" posts on here...maybe ya'll need to change some administrators. I KNOW how important ALL extracurricular activities are to small towns and the students who attend those schools. Gotta love those small town "politics" - NOT!!!
