Imagine a kid from Floyd Central being a shooter. That’s what they are known for.  I went there for three years many moons ago.  Ole Joe Hinton coached up some good teams in the day.

Me and my brother both got some coaching out of Joe Hinton as well. At least when he wasn't falling asleep at practice lol.

Just for kicks, why would you say that?

I may be misremembering but I think he cheated? At least that's what I heard when we played against him when he coached Paoli.

@Napleshoosier because he can't coach at a high school without cheating, there are multiple examples of this.

I don’t know where he coached after I left which would have been in 1973 so ……

He definitely may or may not have gotten a kid to move from Floyd to Paoli or somewhere around there. My broski was the starting center on that team. Fun Paoli team to watch. Had the true point guard that basically never shot, the 3 level scorer/playmaker, the mid range scorer, the sniper from 3 and my brother, the bruiser. Of course ran into a private school in the regionals. But yea, Hinton literally only cares about one kid. Was there long enough to coach his 4 years. Ruined many grades below that by not caring and trying to develop.

He got Providence put on probation, they couldn't participate in the post-season 2006-ish, right around there. Because of his cheating. This was after the Paoli stuff.

A school like Providence it wouldn't matter. But at a public school... Not so much. But he was an old fart while at Paoli. He was there my Freshman and Sophomore year and it was a guarantee he was falling asleep during practice.

Idk who that is. Hinton was at Providence then, is what I'm saying. His last season was 2004 at Providence, I just checked. 2005 Providence was the best team in 2A and didn't get to play in the post-season because of Hinton's actions. Their only loss that year was to a very good New Albany team.

He does matter. It mattered so much the school was suspended from the post-season.

You said it happened after Paoli. But Hinton was at Paoli from 2006-2010.
