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

Yeah I completely goofed that. He took at least one year off, if not two. 

I am pretty sure he had an incident or two at Floyd in the 90s, as well.

I believe that he now helps his daughter out coaching at Lanesville. Won the last two State Championships?

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. 

I’m going to ask again, how did he cheat?  Don’t just say the man’s a cheat without saying what he did!

Basically recruiting or paying players it looks like. He was at Providence before my time. When I played they had a coach that made the team hold the ball at half court for the majority of the quarter. Games were in the 10's and 20's. Hated playing them haha.

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. 

Where did you play at?

I played at Paoli for Hinton my junior and senior year in 07-08. Had a player recruited from Floyd. He sat out our junior year and played senior year

I played (not very well) at Eastern 

[HoosierAloha 30,068]

His daughter.. haha pretty sure that happened while at FC in the late 90s when he was already old as dirt. I believe he was suspended or forced out at FC in the early 2000s

Greene or Pekin?

Was a pretty good coach. We ran basically a five out system and shot a bunch of threes. Got up as high as third in 2A in a class that has Derek Elston and Deshaun Thomas

Pekin

Hinton took the 1971 team to the final four vs East Chicago Washington. Close game.  I think like four points.  That was when the nickname “Super hicks” came into being.  I was in the 7th grade there at the time and remember some of the upper class men went to NAHS during sectional and released a bunch of white mice loose in the school with SONA in red on their backs.  Lol. $hit on New Albany.  Funny stories. They got in trouble!

[maharkn 1,751]

Pekin 

If you played against Hinton teams there is a good chance we played against each other
