They need alot more than that.Phil Freed is taking applications now. We can only hope he hires a defensive specialist.
Maybe hire that guy who "knocked it out of the park" 5 years ago.
True, but it's hard to coach height.They need alot more than that.
Not a bad idea. He certainly knows defense.@iamgearyblvd @Irish_Cheers If they were smart they would offer the job to LyRyan Russell
I'll be honest here. Lyryan, should stay put with the women's team. Next to Harrigan, he has done the best job there since being the head coach. He is legacy and in his young 40s with a lot more ahead of him if he wants to.@iamgearyblvd @Irish_Cheers If they were smart they would offer the job to LyRyan Russell
It's obvious SHC should get a better pipeline to better players and the AD will have to back the coach up enough to prevent parents from telling them how to coach.I'll be honest here.

The mens teams towards the end of Barbour's tenure, aside from the 2019 CCS Open, from the outside looking in, appeared to be miserable. You had numerous transfers of star players out of the school, you had stale offenses that half court weaves that led to jacking up to 3s, you had few players above 6'4 that can gave you anything offensively/defensively, you had a few players/families pretty much calling the shots (allegedly.... but this goes on pretty much anywhere.... allegedly). We can go on and on. It was really a hard watch.
I do know these things go in cycles and while one city school is up, they will surely have a fall later because thats just how it is. And another city school is down, rest assured this will be corrected until something ruins it again.
Lastly, our mens soccer team is in the infancy of a dynasty thanks to Coach McNeil and his program the SF Glens which are funneling those kids to SH. We've become a womens vball / mens soccer power. Lets go Irish!

It appeared to be dismal but under Mike Carey, the women's teams I do recall won CCS once, maybe twice before they made a change. Hard to complain when a section title was achieved. Same with MacKay. He did a really good job given it netted the school's only CCS Open title as an 8 seed!Last I remember the girls program was dismal for 3 years or so after Harrigan also until LyRyan turned it around. The men's program has been a reflection of its coaching and administrative leadership. I think he would be the best candidate to turn it around with his connection to basketball in the city and Bay Area.
At the end of the day the administration has to want to win and support the programs. Right now there seems to be a bit of a disconnection.
You got me there I'm not sure about the CCS title but the year prior to LyRyan they weren't very good. First year state title appearance and 3 appearances since he's been there winning one. I'm not sure if there's been another program in the city to do that as of late. CCS open title as an 8 seed but also several upsets as a 1 seed.It appeared to be dismal but under Mike Carey, the women's teams I do recall won CCS once, maybe twice before they made a change.

east bay kids? there arent any players in the city limits or outer burbs? east bay kids have odowd, moreau, salesian and de la salle. why would they go all the way to shcIrish hit a home run here with LyRyan taking the boys job. Theres more work to be done starting with getting a few more east bay kids to buy into his program.
This was taken down and refuted like three minutes later saying it was “premature”Appears official now..
Why the back and forth? This was posted by a prep sports media writer- Harold Abend.This was taken down and refuted like three minutes later saying it was “premature”
The team doesnt have to be all from the east bay genius. Just 2-3 would be just fine.east bay kids? there arent any players in the city limits or outer burbs? east bay kids have odowd, moreau, salesian and de la salle. why would they go all the way to shc
It didn't hurt when Kevin Greene came here. You would think players would want to play in the league's premier gymnasium.The team doesnt have to be all from the east bay genius. Just 2-3 would be just fine.
I wouldnt mind if Irish great, Kiki Moore got a shot. Shes been an assistant under Russell.If Russell does take the job, who will coach the Women’s team? SI is established and Riordan is on the rise as they had no seniors on their team.
“Premier”, to quote Inigo Montoya, “I do not think it means what you think it means.” The gym has all the character of a library with just as many patrons. Snack bar, uh….no. I heard they’re getting a new state of the art scoreboard which should make a 14 year old’s commute from the east bay worth it. Probably cheaper to hand each visitor their own iPad to use as a scoreboard. SH might be the worst gym in the league but since VC only holds about 400 people that is the likely loser. Also, points off for the nun.It didn't hurt when Kevin Greene came here. You would think players would want to play in the league's premier gymnasium.
New coaching with emphasis on defense would help too.

Kiki is a great fit or his assistant Coach D who's been there with Russell during his coaching stint. However, it's hard to offer an adult a part time stipend that doesn't add up to what the job entails. You'd think after having several coaches with degrees in various programs they would offer full time positions on campus to some of them other than campus security.I wouldnt mind if Irish great, Kiki Moore got a shot.

18 years. Gets these clowns every time. It also gets the other jealous people too. Every time.“Premier”, [Blah blah blah], “I do not think it means what you think it means.” The gym has all the character of [blah blah blah]. Snack bar, uh….no.

Greene is from Oakland. Its possible to draw some kids out. The program/head coach connection is the draw. Greene (Oakland), Johns (E. Palo Alto), Robinson (WC), McCoy (EC), Chang (Berkeley).I am not sure, but didn’t Greene come with SF Rebels connection…I wouldn’t think that is EB roots for SHC?
nope. Greene was a Soldiers kid. He came to SHCP after talking to Jerry Brown and TeAndre Hubbard...That was the connection and he came at the last minute. He was slated to go to Bishop O'Dowd.I am not sure, but didn’t Greene come with SF Rebels connection…I wouldn’t think that is EB roots for SHC?
Good that he made the right decision.nope. Greene was a Soldiers kid. He came to SHCP after talking to Jerry Brown and TeAndre Hubbard...That was the connection and he came at the last minute. He was slated to go to Bishop O'Dowd.
You do know Riordan has an international boarding program. Kids from the east bay and South Bay go to Riordan too. (I.e) Jelani Clark and Zion Sensley. There was mention that SHC was also exploring a boarding program.Why not go to Africa like Riordan did?
This is why Riordan has gained a leg up in getting kids to go there. Add in they are now co-ed which some can say is a plus. Having on-campus housing solves the transportation/commuting issue. Not seeing your family daily can be an issue with a kid's psychology (sorry Zoom and Facetime are not substitutes). Its all good until someone else offers the kid/family something better.You do know Riordan has an international boarding program. Kids from the east bay and South Bay go to Riordan too.

I haven't heard about a boarding program. If so, they could possibly incorporate it with their future building plans.This is why Riordan has gained a leg up in getting kids to go there.

not all the way factual...Why not go to Africa like Riordan did?
It would solve the height problem...
