But hey all good.
Q is the HEAD COACH LSH!!!
Now will see in 2yrs well prob before that many times put your foot in your mouth because i guarantee unless he gets fired (but dont see a winning coach getting fired) he will be there many years.

Uh....not exactly. Here's what it says:

"Lima Senior has announced that Quincey Simpson will be recommended to the board as new boys basketball coach on Thursday evening"

Recommended and hired aren't the same thing.....close...but not a done deal

Any hiring OR firing has to be done by the board. The committee interviewed and recommends to the board and they will "officially hire the candidate.

bball_fanatic,

You posted this on another thread in March:

Spartan Dome.... Davis is getting interviewed this week or next week. Ok maybe this week is a "sit down to talk" and the following weeks to come an interview. I cant tell you my source... but ohhh soooo trust me. Davis has been in the works for about 3 months and talking between the parties has begun... unofficially. There... is that better for you since I put unofficially? How is Q working out?

I guess I will let you know on Thursday after the board meeting. One thing my dad always told me, Never call someone out unless you can take the heat when you are wrong.

You obviously have a problem with Q and it has shown in your posts. I posted statistics on Davis that disputed others claims of what his success was at other schools. I have a feeling that you will be the first one to jump on him when he does anything, as you judge, incorrect during a game. Time will tell if he is the right coach, I feel like they interviewed all qualified and decided on Q.

Major congrats to Coach Simpson and Spartan Way! (And for more than two years! )



*almost wanna speed thru fb season!

[Rocketman]

Congrats to the entire Simpson household......Coach, mom, kids, relatives, etc...

LSH made a very nice hire.........RM

In my eyes the dominos will start to fall. If Quincy Simpson is the one then there is no way in my eyes that his son Xavier stays at LCC. I am not sure about the other players Dantez Walton or Tre Cobb and some others that escape my memory coming over. However I could see the exodus back to Spartan Way. The next couple of weeks will really be interesting to see who is staying or going. If Lima Senior does get some of the players that are at LCC coming over combined with what is coming back for the Spartans, they are going be a bi--h to play against next year and 2016.

Glad you said "Almost"

[Coach]

Lima will be one of the favorites to win the TRAC conference! As I stated earlier, if they will play defense they are going to be really, really good!

[bball_fanatic]

Spartan Dome... Kudos to all who said Q is going to get the coaching job!!! Shame on anyone else who had an opinion different with all of you! There is that better??? You are all smart and anyone who thought/wanted someone other than Q are just down right dumb?! Still what you wanted? But just so you know.... The only games I go too are the ones vs Elida, my hometown and current residence!!! Go Dawgs!!!!!! Lol

Happy for Q. Sad for Allen, Davis and Kill. Seriously, I believe those are four fine coaches.

Excited to see Q get a shot. If you look at almost every current top end player in and around Lima...almost all of them have had Quincy's fingerprints on them somewhere along the line. I hope, and believe it will, work out. Expectations are through the roof...including my own... Not sure how fair that is... But I'm certain Q knows what he has gotten himself into...

Question to everyone who follows the RC:

Since Coach Q has this All Star team of talent playing AAU ball throughout the good ol' U.S.A.
is there any chance that some of that talent finds its way to Lima for the winter basketball season also?
There have been some people on here over the years who might have alluded to the fact that the same person
who is bankrolling Q's teams is the same individual who started this whole mess in Ohio back in 2000...
Will LSH stoop to that level and bring 'em in from all over ala OJ Mayo, or will this just be a local team
that figures out all the X's and O's to win the old-fashioned way?......there are some pretty good athletes
on these AAU squads and it would sure be a shame if LSH did to their kids what LCC did to theirs the past
several years......in the end, this might be a great thing for LCC now that I think of it.....a lot of us
won't be able to lob hand grenades their way when the "R" word comes up.....the good old LCC names will now
again be able to play ball where their dads and grandfathers did before them.....face it, LCC was turning into
a Villa Angela St. Joseph, Cleveland Central Catholic, St. Peter Bedford Chanel-type of school......
oh, they have great academics (well Chanel did until closing their doors)and some mighty fine basketball teams
to boot.....time will tell but I just have to wonder if the only things changing on Spartan Way is the names
of the coaches.....RM

AND if it does happen those OHSAA people will turn a blind eye once again so as not to face the
"competitive balance" issue again......

[Spartan87]

So would someone care to refresh my memory in how many games Cobbs, Walton and Simpson played for Lima Senior? Since everyone keeps referring to them transferring back.....

This whole mess? SVSM and NCH were awesome to watch. They were great for HS basketball.

[Maltese Falcon]

I find it hard to believe Xavier Simpson will stay at LCC...........would his dad be willing to miss all of his games to coach at LSH? doubtful. I am sure dad/ son sat down and discussed this and Qunicy said something along the lines of "If you are in for LSH, then I so am I". If Xavier said "I want to stay at LCC" ....it would be tough for Quincy to miss almost all of his games to coach LSH. I have to think it is a coaches dream to coach his son and vice/ versa.

[Dman]

I don't agree NCH and SVSM were either fun to watch or good for basketball. But to each their own...

As for competitive balance...at least they will hypothetically be in DIV I.

StV's asked to be in D1, so did NCH. With this competitive balance thing I don't think we'll see as much movement as you think.
