- Blessed to say that I'm verbally committed to play basketball at Missouri Southern State Unviersity. #GoLions🏀
- That feeling when you accomplish something that hasn’t been done since 1981. So proud of the players, my assistants, and everyone who has helped get us to this point. See you in Columbia. GO VIKINGS‼️
00:00 - Wow. I am so blessed to coach this group. Not because we are headed to the final 4 but because of the people they are, the fun we have together, and the willingness to buy in and listen to what I preach. I guess we will play two more next weekend at the Q‼️🔥The picture says it all. So proud of the boys went on the road an a hostile environment and punched a ticket to the final 4. Thank you to ALL OF THE IRISH FANS‼️ We will see you next week at the Q‼️ GO IRISH!!!
- DISTRICT CHAMPS‼️‼️‼️ I asked my players to wake up early/do things that would make them uncomfortable/and buy into my vision of “the grind.” I am so proud of everyone especially our players. I am blessed. Incredible moment for our program. GO VIKINGS!!!
- I love my guys win or lose. They won that game and executed. They guarded for 32 minutes. Absolute blast watching them play defense. One more opportunity tomorrow night. GO IRISH!!!Catholic holds on! Big time win for first year coach @CoachSimpson5
00:00 - I had a coach once tell me to “show up, show up consistently, and do your best and you would be better then 90% of people at whatever you are trying to accomplish.” Took me to become an adult to understand the importance in that quote. Consistency matters.
- Excited for the opportunity to be back in SPS. Ready to continue the success of Parkview basketball and extremely blessed to be able to do what I love.Jack Simpson will take over as head coach of Parkview boys basketball. He coached Springfield Catholic to a fourth place finish in Class 5 this season.
- I am teaching weights this year for the first time in my teaching career. I am almost two weeks into the school year and I have LOVED going to work everyday. I love helping/motivating kids to either get physically active or stay physically active. Find a job you love.💪🏻
- A lot of people counted us out back in January…crazy what culture and adversity can teach you. PROUD of our guys. Winning these things are HARD. These guys showed our PILLARS tonight and earn the right to keep practicing. GO VIKINGS!!!Parkview: 52 Webb City: 40 We are back to back Class 5 District 6 Champions!!! Thank you to all the Parkview students and fans that made the trip to Webb City. We will travel to Helias Catholic on Friday for the state quarterfinal game. GO VIKINGS!!!
- Thanks for sharing. A lifetime memory. I am a lucky coach!Winning at any level is hard. Coaching is hard. This was a tough win in a crazy loud gym. Congrats to @SCHSIrishBB I love watching the coach soak in the realization of the win and hard earned trip to final four. @OzarksOzone @kytv #congrats
00:00 - Had to make the trip to Iowa State to see my guy @zachhow3 in person. Milwaukee didn’t win but Zach played great. 2/3 from deep and 4 steals. Proud of Zach. Success happens for people who don’t cheat the work. Glad I got to be a small part in his journey.
- I was blessed and honored to coach this team. Love these guys. We had 8 GREAT seniors who are going to go on and do GREAT things. 24-8 and a final four appearance is a pretty solid year on the hardwood!!! Go Irish!So proud of these boys and the way they represented Springfield Catholic. THANK YOU to the seniors, all the parents, administrators, Coach Evans, Mike are AT, all IRISH fans and everyone else who played a role in making this season memorable. As ALWAYS GO IRISH🍀‼️
