I want to call on you all to be at the Courthouse no later than 6:30 Tuesday night. We cannot allow the school board to run Coach Pierce and his new Cougars off.

Pat ... you rock!!! I'll call them all!
My question is how could they fire coach pierce? what did he do to warrent being actually fired?!?! You can't get fired for not playing someones boy or for fussing at them.
Also, I'm not saying he should have been fired, but I mean the football coach let the football team take suppliments without parental permission, let them use tobacco ... dr. blevins knew and actualy took up for him and didn't fire him???
This is crazy

The school board is not known for it's great decision making and Fuhrur Blevins will make whatever decision she thinks benefits her the most. Look for a group to show up in support of firing him

Yes, even the saddest part, that a CHURCH would do this??? I hope they feel ashamed.
I still don't understand why they want him FIRED?? Exactly what did he do to warrent being FIRED? He's a coach and kids get mad at their coach just like they get mad at teachers and even their own parents.
I just hope they all plan to back off now when they see the spirit and passion this new team has!
Way to go guys and watch out school board!

First of all how would the school board as a whole know whats going on besides hearing one side of the story, I mean when is the last time besides Johnny Byrge that a board member has been to a game!  ?!! I know after tonight that this team and coach Len Pierce has gained a tremendous amount of support!!! The player on the news said," he told us if we didnt like it to go home," so guess what they left on their terms!!!!!!!! It is not like he kicked them off!!!! They quit on their terms or parents terms and now they want Pierce gone, are you kidding me?!?!?!?!?! |

This is crazy I am a reader, not a "poster". Not even sure if this will show up correctly, BUT YOU HAVE to read a post over on the LMS thread by parent of athlete before you start making statements like "they can not do this or that"..etc It is just too funny. Welcome to Campbell County. |
