Ok I agree with you to a point. But why single him out and let someone else leave a picture of Coach Hankins up? I try to never say anything negative about anyone by name especially a kid that’s just wrong. We all get on here and have for years and had great conversation and made good friendships.

What was untoward about the pic of Coach Hankins? The papi buttermilk thing has been going for over a year... I don't understand it, so thought it is a joke - not potentially libelous.

 

And no one has been singled out.  Some posts were removed that violate MST rules.

So it’s ok to joke at one man’s expense ? Who decides if it a joke of something libelous? Coach Hankins is actually a very good friend of mine and I didn’t like it and find it offensive.

When you see something posted that is offensive, report it and explain why you believe it should be removed.  The post you mention has been removed.

Shocked to see where WC has come. Maybe one day things will change. It is crazy how programs like Louisville and West Point keep producing every year. These schools seem to be similar in size to WC. I wonder what WC needs to do to atleast get back to being respectable and having a playoff team ever few years?

WP kept same Coach forever. WC has had three coaches in six years that makes a difference. We kept Coach Boyles 12 years and he put a lot of emphasis on the five middle schools in the county. He knew that was his future so there we’re good coaches at them and they played quality competition. That’s not the case now and they only play within the county. It helps when you play Meridian,Laurel,Petal,OG and Hattiesburg. You develop players then

I totally agree. I wonder if the split of Waynesboro Middle school has had any effect? An emphasis needs to be put on the younger generation.

you have to get those younger middle school kids excited about football and looking forward to the day they

play under those Friday night lights. That's easier if the high school team is winning, going deep in playoffs,..etc.

If not, it takes a really committed coach to get the ball rolling again. I guarantee you there were many difference makers

walking the halls at Wayne County this year, and it's like that at a lot of other schools too.

Thanks to singlewing for meeting me halfway on this issue and I think progress was made for all of us going forward. It's a pleasure working with reasonable people.

 

That said it's time to continue the work of getting Wayne County back on track.   Like Wareaglefan stated above you can't just come on here and trash Coach Hankins. We give him hell sure but that's our job from the inside not for outsiders to pile on so if you are bringing that expect resistance.

 

In short. I'm Back !

I am semi bed ridden right now with a surgically repaired broken leg but I am going to beat their timeline and be walking unassisted by Christmas. So old leatherface  ,any fantasies you may have of my demise will prove to be just that more broken dreams.

This goes into why we are so furious with the product being thrown on the field. There was almost a hundred kids total on that team  and you can't get no more out of them than that ? There's a disconnect somewhere and we are just frustrated with the whole  "give me time" excuse .

I don't think our freshman team lost a game this season. Do we really  want to turn that over to these same dudes ?

No more broken dreams for vott please.  He’s had too many of those with Hattiesburg football the last few years.  
 

It’s ok Vott. West Jones and Oak grove and potentially, but less likely, Laurel will have more golden balls added to their trophy cases to let you guys look at.
