Damn fine baseball coach that got consumed by small town politics. He will land on his feet and hopefully somewhere close to New Hope.

Man, they always had some talent in FB but could just never seem to exploit it (Wayne Harris, Andy Shaw, Andre Harris, etc.). I don't think they ever beat
us (Calhoun City) during my playing (picking pine out of my butt) days. Think they were a top 10 team last year we played them (79?), but they had no QB. A
pick-6 & a goal-line stand later, we had whupped that Blue Devil arse.

and they will get a good coach to. I'm curious to see if Chris Chism, from Hernando, gets it.
A lot of people think that Eddie Lofton at Clinton will get the Oak Grove job, which has me wondering if Hester will end up at Clinton. I could also see Hester going over to Alabama to coach as well. "Because just being good kids who make good grades isn't good enough anymore."- John Cohen

his on the field behavior is extreme; there are plenty of other coaches who can win without all that crap. I do not know him personally....have only seen him
"coaching" .....if that is what you call it.

He tried to choke a 17ing high school kid. I don't care who you are or what you've done, that's grounds for being fired. And I suspect a lot of schools that would have otherwise jumped at the chance to hire him will think twice about it now. |

Oak Grove had an ex-pro- Kary Bridges as their HC, he played at Ole Miss, the old Jackson Generals, and played at Oak Grove. He was selected by Harry Breleand
to be his successor after being an assistant there for a couple of years. Basically, he was in over his head- some Oak Grove people's words, not mine, and
after they were knocked out very early in the playoffs, he was let go.
So, a lot of it was about wins and losses. I have heard a rumor that Bridges was going to coach at Laurel or somewhere like that. "Because just being good kids who make good grades isn't good enough anymore."- John Cohen

by merit of being a high school sports coach, that you have the right to CHOKE one of your players, you are a f.ucking disgrace to humanity. Go jump off a

hattiesburg is that he was an asshole toward the players. From what I was told, he was very degrading when he would get on the players. As an example, he
supposedly got in McMahon's face and was yelling at him telling him that he sucked and couldn't understand why MState would want him. Stupid move
considering the McMahons standing in oakgrove. I keep hearing this from everyone i've heard talking about it, so this is probably the case. I haven't
seen him in awhile, but when i was around him, he could be very nice, but could also be obnoxious as hell too.

These are big ass football players and when stuff starts flying around and a people are hitting each other sometimes the best way to get someone's attention is a nice grab to the throat. If he hurt the kid then sure, he should be gone, but I can think of any number of situations where in the heat of the moment I'm going to do what diffuses the situation and it might be grabbing someone's throat. Life is situational, just hearing one thing someone did is never enough to judge the action on. |

If it happens pretty regularly, then you are a very shitty coach who can't control his players | #19 | ||

never once happened in any sport I have played or watched.
And if it did happen at my alma mater the coach would be fired on the spot, no questions asked. And would never get a job anywhere nearby.

I witnessed it first hand for years and this bastard got what he deserved. He's had a lot more badass, smartass, dumbass kids pull the same thing and he
never laid a hand on them because he had other coaches who wouldn't let it happen. When your main assistant is your son-in-law (volunteer coach) and the
other is the shortstops dad (also a volunteer coach who was helping lead the effort to get rid of the bastard), there is no one to step between you and stop a
bad situation. Chism would have stepped in and helped prevent it when he was there, but he wasn't and now the "real stacy hester" was in
control. Every kid in the dugout wrote their version of what happened on paper and turned it in to the administration. I think, based on yesterday's
decision, most know what was written down on those pieces of paper.
Like one poster above said, Hester's antics and bullying arrogant self finally got him fired. Mr. Halford hired his ass and fired his ass. Good riddance. He probably won't want to leave town because of his landscaping business that he works during the day while he is supposed to have been teaching driver's ed. His son-in-law runs his grass cutting business so it will be interesting to see if what the whole family does. |
