Jujuan Jones could really play then the kid just fell off the face of the earth

He moved to Atlanta after Soph year. Got into trouble with drugs and other stuff. Ended up playing like 1 or 2 years at a Community College in Alabama. I think if he would of stayed here he had a great shot to go D1 somewhere. Had a silky smooth game. Use to play one-on-one at the YMCA with him knowing I'd lose every time.

[gmi4dad]

they should Hire Dan H the former Loramie / NK coach. Because they have some talent coming up. Maybe he can mold them into a gwoc contender.

[Voice]

What ever happened to T.C. Johnson? I went to Wright State with him.

[hotcorner94]

Coach Wildermuth passed away about 5-8 years ago. Sidney was officially 0-21 last year I believe for playing an ineligile player.

Sidney was officially 0-21 last year I believe for playing an ineligile player.It might not be right, but the GWOC web site shows Sidney as 3-18 for the 2011-2012 season:

Isn't e the Anna coach now?

[gmi4dad]

No he is not Anna's coach. he needs saved because he is St Marys coach. the one coaching spot in that area that is a step lower than Sidney.

Big difference between coaching in the SCL and the GWOC. No offense to the small schools but they don't face anything like Trotwood or the crossover opponents such as Wayne on a yearly basis.

[gmi4dad]

i think he is close to 400 wins. Is thier any coach in the Gwoc close to 400 wins. no matter what level 400 wins is no joke. And i think in Sidney Prime he took a small school into sidney and gave them all they wanted in the Holiday tournament.
He would win games anywhere he coached. Talent helps and Sidney has some young players coming up. Just keep them playing and they will make any good coach look good. But a great coach will make them look great.

Snyder resigns as Sidney boys coach - Sidney Daily News

Calling it a family-based decision, Sidney High School's Greg Snyder announced his resignation after three years as a head basketball coach, the last two as the boys coach. Snyder was the head girls basketball coach for a year before taking over the boys program when Tom Clark retired. His first boys team finished with a 3-18 record, and this past season's squad was 3-20. Snyder said he made his decision with family in mind.

"It's mostly a family-based decision," he said Monday. "I'm at a point in my life right now where I don't want to give the time it takes to be a head coach. I feel like I've missed a lot the last couple years. "It was excruciating making this decision," he added. "It was very tough to tell the kids as well because I care about the kids, the program and the school. I still hope to work with the kids in some capacity, but it was just taking too much time for me. I want to be there for my (six-month-old) son growing up. He's so darn fun and I don't want to be away from him that much."

Snyder said he intends to remain with the Sidney school system.

"I still have an interest in extra-curricular actitivies and working with kids," he said. "That's why I became a teacher. I don't think this is the end of the road for me by any means. I've enjoyed very much working with the kids in the basketball program, I thought our crowds were always very supportive, and I have a great support system from Tom Clark and (athletic director) Jeff Courter. They've been great, as has the rest of the administration. I'm going to miss that relationship and I certainly thank them for everything they did for me."

Snyder coached two young and inexperienced teams at Sidney that went up against a grueling schedule in the Greater Western Ohio Conference.
Consequently, his teams didn't win a lot of games, but that doesn't mean he hasn't any fond memories.

"There were certainly tough times," said Snyder. "But I'm going to remember the good times. The games we did win, I feel like they were all special in their own way. But right at the top has to be the Troy game down there this season. We were down 15 and came back to win, and Tyree Manley, who had just lost his mom, hit a couple free throws to win it at the end. Those are things you never forget."

Courter said he wasn't surprised with Snyder's decision, but was sorry to hear it.

"He'll definitely be missed," Courter said. "I keep up with these guys all year long, watch their demeanor, especially when seasons are rough. So I'm not completely shocked. But we're disapointed because Greg is such a great guy, he's very organized, has the enthusiasm, and has great work ethic. "But a lot of things come into play," Courter continued. "He's a young dad, and there are a lot of stresses. People don't understand. It's not just November to March for a basketball coach. They have to get their summer program ready, worry about fall gym times, things like that. There is so much involved in building a program from the bottom. People can't understand what it is to be a coach unless they become one."

Courter was scheduled to meet with the administration this morning to talk about the coaching position.

"I think we're in a good situation as far as teaching openings," he said. "We'll see what happens in the next couple weeks as far as people retiring, and see what kind of positions open up. We want to find someone who wants to put in the time and also who wants to be here a while and build a program. That's what we need."

He said he has no timeline.

"We don't want to rush it but we also don't want to take our time," Courter said. "We have a lot of good, young kids coming up and we want to give those kids the best we can."
