The coach needs to take the blame on his poor coaching performance, retire and don't mention any excuses in the newspaper.

...and get on the plane at GSP and head overseas with his new team.

We can still play with anybody in the state with the right coach in place.

Hint: Look at everyone we beat in 2012.
Possibly. But maybe not. Not saying Pippen doesnt need to be replaced, but the return to the good ole days of yesteryear might not be as easy as you think. First off, Greenwood isnt the same place it was years ago. Not sure it is still the town where the football team was the point of pride, and focus, for the whole community as well still exists. Times change. The cultural makeup of kids, and a community changes. Once that happens you sometimes cant get the genie back in the bottle. Greenwood could still be good, and should be more competitive than they have been lately. But the years of Greenwood being feared may be long gone.

We will definitely have previous players going back working with the youth and developing these kids like we use too. Pippin stop that from happening for years!

Greenwood and Abbeville county will always produce athletes its in the demographics.
