BREAKING NEWS: Blair's Gamal Smalley resigns

| | Comments (21) |

Gamal Smalley confirmed moments ago he has resigned as Blair's boys basketball coach. "We had a parting of the ways last week," he said. "We had a mutual agreement with (Blair) principal Rich Boccia to seek an opportunity somewhere else." Smalley spent two seasons coaching the Vikings and a year and a half as the school's athletic director. Smalley requested a meeting with Boccia at the end of the season and was granted a meeting last week. "We sat down and he informed me that he decided to move in a different direction," Smalley said. "It was understandable. He told me he's doing a lot of reorganization within the school and athletic departments." Boccia did not return a message seeking comment. Smalley tookver a Vikings program that went 0-10 in league the previous season and had won just two games the year before. "I was really happy with what we were able to do there," Smalley said. "It was a gigantic task." Smalley suggested that the school needed to find a full-time person on staff to make it work. "You have to have people on campus but in that particular (post) they need someone full-time that's there," he said. Blair went 13-10 this season and missed the playoffs after a fourth-place finish in the Rio Hondo League.

I truly appreciate this article post.Much thanks again. Really Great.

Boa tarde turma, com certeza um torpedo web de graça está cada vez mais custoso devido a restrição das operadoras de celular. Há ainda serviços de terceiros (sites) que prometem entregar minha menssagem mas nem sempre chegam ao usuário final. Alguns como o Mundo oi e o Oi Torpedo funcionam mas e para as outras operadoras? E os que dizem que mandam e nada chega. Para onde está indo as meus SMS? E para a Tim, Vivo? Alguma Idéia? Ou significa ter de desembolsar?. Foi mal, realmente está difícil achar dicas para enviar torpedos de graça.

Some factor is fallacious with your structure, as I'm not in a position to see the images on your publish and simplest see some javascript code. Perhaps you will have a have a look this!

Boa tarde galera, provavelmente enviar um torpedo web gratuito está cada vez mais custoso devido ao bloqueio das operadoras de celular. Há ainda serviços de terceiros (sites) que prometem entregar minha menssagem mas quase nunca chegam destinatário final. Alguns como o Mundo oi e o Oi Torpedo funcionam mas e para as outras operadoras? E os que dizem que enviam e nada chega. Para onde está indo as as minhas menssagens? E para a Tim, Vivo? Alguma Idéia? Ou significa ter de comprar?. É só um desabafo, realmente está difícil achar dicas para mandar SMS de graça.

The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod's. It works well, but isn't as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that's not an issue, but if you're planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod's larger screen and better browser may be important.

I truly appreciate this article post.Much thanks again. Really Great.

Thank you for this blog post.Excellent advice.

Hello, I do not usually publish comments on blogs, as I wish to learn only. But I find the article that you've written earlier has very insightful information, and I discover it very informational. Anyway, I'm questioning whether or not you're open for link trade, as I hope that we will agree on a mutual hyperlink trade agreement. Hope to hear a constructive reply from you, and have an awesome day!

Good to hear that! We need the attention on the football program!

Viking Fan said:

sstress....Coach Parks is not taking over as basketball coach. He's sticking to football.

sstress said:

BTW...Viking SUPPORTER …I may be the biggest critique of Blair’s football program, but I am one of the VERY FEW supporters of the program, giving my time and/or financial assistance at all football games and fundraising events. I sure hope your one of the few…

sstress said:

There are plenty of options for us...PHS, Muir. A concern of mine is, will coach parks be stretched too far if he takes on other responsibilites besides the football program. However, I will respect my son's decision regardless of how I feel...not that it is any of your business..

I wish Tip luck at Duarte..sounds like he may need it, but his actions speaks louder then words. I'll give him a year to two at Duarte before they win league...

viking supporter said:

Lady !OOPPS!!! Let it GOOO ! Its not about Parks and his position as ASSISTANT A.D..Coach TIP the man that we all love is down the street at DUARTE THATS AN OPTION FOR YOU AND YOUR FAMILY....

Goldenarm said:

sstress,

sounds like that may be the case.

The terms "mutual agreement" and "different direction" seem a bit contrary to one another.

Sounds like Boccia wanted a new coach, plain and simple.

sstress said:

PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME THAT COACH PARKS, AKA ASSISTANT A.D. IS NOW THE BASKETBALL COACH TOO!!!!!
