HooverOutlaw Posted March 10, 2020 Report Share Posted March 10, 2020 Per Phil Jones show. Outside of Rush who wants that job? They way they treated Rodemaker has damaged the program and ran many long time money folks off. Sounds like it is a house divided. I think the BOE and fans want Rush but Supt does not. I'd say Rush has a 20% chance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody on the GA boards said they offered a seasoned Pelham assistant coach the job and he turned it down the same day. Pelham is a 2A school lol... And he basically said screw off... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valdosta had a lifetime 77% win record before Rodemaker took over, upon his departure they have around 75% with an embarassing national loss in the GEICO champions bowl, one state championship in Georgia 6A after having losses to the big boys of 7A. They aren't what they used to be, so, I figure they wanna return to the pinnacle as the premier team in the state. However, if they're offering the job to 2A assistants, that may not be the case. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they're offering Kareem Reid the job they most certainly ain't looking to return to the Pinnacle. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree completely. I've wondered since that rumor hit if they offered it to him or did he apply and they considered it? These things have a way of getting twisted on the boards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is the racial make up at Valdosta similar to Colquitt? I saw it was posted it was 75% black 25% white roughly I thought it might be more 50/50 roughly.

The city of Valdosta might be closer to a 50/50 white/black split. 60/40 at Black/White at most. If you're looking at The HS exclusively then it's still about the same. Now Lowndes might be different. But even then I promise you not by much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inside the city limits I think overall caucasions are a minority, although not by a lot. I think it's like 40 or so percent caucasion.

For the last time they don't have to give a reason. People need to stop crying about that. Easy reason he was average and had some very embarrassing losses even worse to Lowndes the 1 team that losses use to be the only factor to keeping the job. Hell in the mid 2ks Lowndes vs Valdosta was bigger and more important than the state championship. Those boosters forget their place and that's their problem. You become a booster to support the kids not to get whatever you want out of the program. Those boosters that left felt like they owned the team. Valdosta has boosters that have never went to valdosta a students and I know one personally that's is one of the big boosters and he was never a wildcat and im sure he will continue being a booster. Hes white and even he said Valdosta has plenty of racist(white). I know when I played against the cats the middle schools always had black QBs and once they got to high school the qb magically became white and just always happened to be a child of a coach or booster. No one complained about race then because it was benefiting then. Back in those glory days if I remember correctly most of Valdosta QBs were black. Last thing they hired all white coaches since the beginning of their school history and the sane board members agreed to hire the last 2 coaches who were also white. So that racist agenda is a bunch of grown babies crying who don't even know the definition of racism. The can claim prejudice but not racism just by definition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not 100% black and white their are other ethnicities at Valdosta and Lowndes. Part of valdosta numbers are scrambled because some cats kids go to valdwood and there are a great number in alternative school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valdwood has more valdosta kids than lowndes and neither school has much of anything from valdosta when it comes from kids playing sports. Valdosta biggest problem is alot of their talent doesn't play football. They don't have much guidance from either side of their community. Alot of cats talent sitting in alternative school or walking the streets. Before they moved to that new school you could drive by and see kids not go to school and walk right across the campus to go to the store. It was a daily thing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
