randomuser Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 This used to be a good job. Why is it such a revolving door now? They go through ‘em as fast as Tatum recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make him the AP, AD and head FB coach to be screwed up like a soup sandwich. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
westcoast54 Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Did he take all the coaches with him? Seems like entire coaching staff is posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they move on in 2.8 years and leave the mess for the community to deal with. I've worked for 13 over the years and 12 of those fit this scenario. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mavchamp Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 How pitiful to start a job search in June. Not fair to the kids or the community. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaLOadofcrap Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 What's most pitiful is how certain members of the community in certain positions can ruin it for most cause of their agendas. As an ex coach close to the community i can tell you without a doubt this is the case in Lone Oak. This is not 1992 anymore and Lone Oak will continue to go downhill until changes are made. Year after year an influx of coaches have left due to minimal pay, no days, teacher work loads, (most have trouble just getting scheduled into the athletic period) and the plethora of other issues associated with the place that are 10-15 years behind the times ( no Athletic janitors etc). On top of that our aforementioned community members never see the issues, only that lone oak should "be winning". Thus our agendas, at the drop of a hat the few unhappy members of the community have been rallied to create problems, drama and issues for the athletic department. Our agendas have even allowed us behind the scenes to work hand in hand with the herald banner our local newspaper, spilling closed session information to the public and sensationalizing small issues into bigger issues. We have ran off great assistant coaches year after year and now even our Athletic director I believe this trend will continue as we have become a community of whiners, who don't want to do what it takes to win. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darktower Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Only takes a couple of idiots on the school board or in the right position to totally destroy an athletic program---and it is much tougher to rebuild than it was to destroy it--Seen it ----covered it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenville Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 And if you've got buddies who coach softball, volleyball, basketball (boys and girls) and track, they're looking for head coaches for those sports as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blesseddaily Posted June 5, 2019 Author Share Posted June 5, 2019 Here’s an article from the Greenville paper that covers it pretty well https://www.heraldbanner.com/news/local_news/lone-oak-athletic-director-head-football-coach-resigns/article_7c95bf20-8732-11e9-b57f-dff4fba8a60c.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raginredbuffalo Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I can assure that the Superintendent is the biggest supporter of the athletic programs in LO. It’s just sad to see so much micromanagement from certain school boards members. LO is a great little school even still, but the micromanagement will wear out even the best of coaches. You can’t blame Coach Goode from leaving. It takes a lot to make a hometown coach leave!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillonpanthers Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 21 coaching vacancies. Wow!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaLOadofcrap Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 I would agree on the superintendent being a supporter from what I've heard. I don't think any of the coaches had the opportunity to follow him to poteet as he will be an assistant there and not the head coach. To me it seems like they were all supporters of Goode and after hearing his leaving have decided to leave as well. I can't imagine lone oak winning too many games this year, from what I've seen he has always overachieved, other than maybe chisum their schedule will be farly tough next year. This realignment did not help them and they're in district with schools that seem much bigger and with better resources. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raginredbuffalo Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 The 21 coaching vacancies is bogus. Leave it up to the Herald Banner (or blunder as the locals it) to throughly screw up a story. LO has no where close to 21 coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillonpanthers Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Looking at the districts website, it looks like 12 are posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermaroon Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Wow this is sad to see good luck hope they get whatever issue they have fixed for the kids sake. Going to be tough to find a good candidate with them not being AD and having to teach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randomuser Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Have to disagree with you dudes saying the supe supports athletics. Unless the article was misconstrued he’s the one who separated the head FB job and AD job. That’s not a move a supporter of athletics would make, IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raginredbuffalo Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 BuffaLOadofcrap you nailed it. 75% of the coaches who left would still be at LO without meddling from certain members of the board. It’s amazing how 2-3 bad apples can ruin the board. Randomuser the superintendent is a huge supporter of the LO sports program, no if, ands or buts. I have seen it with my own eyes. Don’t believe the majority of the BS in that newspaper article. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
