upset parent

patience has all but disappeared and
frustration is the key word...

the reality is time and opportunities slip away,
and the squeezed window of time available for even the best of coaches - affects the likelihood of ANY team getting it together and developing the things that equate to winning ball games - and fielding a group of kids ready to face opponents all hell bent on kicking their ass.

I hope mid-season next year we can all look back and say some positive changes happened and our football programs benefitted. Reality could be bearing a different outcome however....especially as long head coaching positions remain vacant...and no one is keeping the fires lit on campus.

Info

is OLD your first name?

If you have more than that, please let it fly....
no doubt old info is better than none

the credential is probably another butt cover on the road to pushing someone completely off campus, if you get my drift

Thank God Crutchcrap is gone!Even though he took the Falcons to the playoffs, he was the worst coach the Falcons every had!
He played favorites with the kids, promoted his own family(even got his coach to do the homework) and he is a Lier!
When I was on the team he cussed out another football player for not going out during the first to weeks of Spring Practice, this kids was Co-Mvp of the Freshmen team and was a good Lineback. Both he and Brandon would have given us a great defense.
After Crutchcrap cussed out the guy, he never played football again!
CRUTCHCRAP GOT WHAT HE DESERVED!

This is exciting. Maybe Coach Sanders can lay a foundation that will lead to the M-D Classic becoming a more evenly matched rivalry. I hope Sanders gains the support he will need.

Congratulations to Duarte High School for knowing what "direction" they intended, and quickly heading that way.

This should impact all the rumors and BS regarding J Canada's and others desires to transfer to SHills, or down the boulevard to M-town, or whatever school somebody added to the rumor mill. Who really knows for sure at this point?
What Sanders accomplished at Blair in 07 was nothing short of amazing. Come September, you just know the Duarte kids will step on the field conditioned and ready to play hard.
I would have liked to seen Tip at PHS, but hopefully the Dogs will find the right man, right fit and start grinding toward the kind of program PHS should be.

Where will Crutchfield end up in all this?

WOW! Great investment Duarte! Look out Wildcats, this coach is one of the best in the SGV...heck he may be one of the best in SOCAL. When you turn a program around from several 1-9 seasons, to a Rio Hondo league Champs and into the playoffs, says alot about a coach.

GOOD LUCK Coach Sanders.

DAWWGER

congrats to coach tip sanders, takeing over the head coaching job at duarte, dont mean to get off the great news,,, but why is it takeing pasadena high school so long to get a head coach.

SEM and LP have new Coaches. Fred wake up and confirm this

Gilmore at LP? Wow, I guess life has come full circle for the young man and his guardian. Before his freshmen year, they were hell bent on not letting Gilmore go to LP. Now after 4 years, he comes back to LP and is 40 credits behind. I remember someone a few years ago who said, that Wilson would use him and then get rid of him, and people came on this blog with the dude before Fred and said, that was totally wrong and that the person didn't know what he were talking about.

Well,I guess they were right after all.

They have a new coach. Fred go confirm it.

Hernandez will be the head coach at SEM later today.

Gilmore transfered to LP weeks ago, that is old news. Gilmore will have the grades one way or another trust me. It has been taken care of.

I would be shocked if Tim Gilmore would have grades to Run Track. I saw him today out on the track but i was told he is 40 credits behind! so i just think hes out there just working out and staying in shape. Kid has some "Guns" on him. but i would want him running for LP just dont think its going 2 happen.

Ex wilson Football Star Tim Gilmore has transfered To La Puente high and is now running track @ La Puente. Great for Lp bad for the rest of the league.

This should be great for Duarte and great for local football in general. I hope the Duarte administration, the community and Coach Tip forge a strong relationship and get some good things accomplished.

what about S.EM and TC Fred?

I've heard from a "very reliable" source that Canada is staying.

Fred,

With the coach now for sure, Canada staying or going???
