[Football1]

Football1 I can understand where you are coming from, losing a coach is not a good feeling at all. With that said I want to address some things in your post.
1. Coach Hilton also told our boys this year he would not be leaving, but he did in fact leave. I wish him well because we still and always will love him.

2. You keep saying Knox will be Bell in 2011, I have heard that year in and year out, so don't count your chickens before they hatch.

3. Bell should have been in 3A a long time ago, so no there is really no decline.

4. I'm not in the know, but I do know that from some things that are a FACT, it does look like he is heading to Bell IMO.

If he does head to Bell and his roots are as deep as you say, and I think they are, then it must have been a real hard choice for him and each one of you should support him in Bell, as he felt this was the best move for him. Also you keep talking about your better athletes than Bell if he does move and they are better then the new coach you get should do fine. I KNOW OURS WILL!

Your points here are well stated. Clearly, I see things a little differently, but that's what makes this thread worth 15,000 people looking at it...LOL - which is none of us really have a clue what's going to happen here.

Me, still praying for the staying.
