Coach Evans

Spending part of our spring break at the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum. Today they hosted a search and rescue dog demonstration! You can see all the planned activities here —> MemorialMuseum.com/events

@chkrosp @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I don’t understand why those that are pushing for these bills don’t use real evidence then. I haven’t seen a single legislator use an actual example from Oklahoma. They are bad at their jobs.

@TrackCoachEvans @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX There was an underaged drag club that was open until 2019, The Wreck Room. It closed due to poor management. I have a personal experiences of witnessing multiple grooming acts and assaults. There's still underground clubs/raves and parties that have occur.

The committee's chair, Sec. Ryan Walters, hasn't been to a single meeting this year, even as they discussed performance levels for US history, a topic Walters has hit hard on the campaign trail to become state superintendent. Full story by @paytonnmay -->okcfox.com/news/local/sec…

@chkrosp @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX And so I ask this question because if there is no evidence of this being a problem in OK, then it seems like politicians are stoking fear for political points, which has real consequences for vulnerable populations. I think that’s probably a bigger issue.

@chkrosp @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX If you’ll allow me, I’ll respond with a question—is there a single example of this taking place in OK? All of the pictures and stories I’ve seen are from other parts of the world.

@chkrosp @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I don’t think anyone is blaming you for anyone else’s behavior. And she has never claimed that people can’t voice their opinion (though I do fail to see where you see dishonesty). But nothing says that she has to engage with any of it either.

@TrackCoachEvans @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I can understand why/how Wendy is blaming CB and I, but you know her blame is irrational. I don't know her like you do, neither does anyone here on Twitter. CB and I have the right to voice our opinions and to call out the dishonesty. I would expect her to understand and expect

@ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I still don’t know what you want deleted. I’m here listening, though I’d rather be doing anything else, but I don’t see anything said publicly that disparages you or your mom.

@chkrosp @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I don’t see your words posted as an example of the hate that Wendy was calling out in that tweet. Look at the screen shots she included—they are disgusting. I would assume Wendy doesn’t want to talk to anyone right now that has previously made ugly accusations about her.

@TrackCoachEvans @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I gave my opinion claim based off this tweet. Would it not be reasonable to clarify and ask me to delete the claim than to cut off all conversations?

@ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I’m sorry, I do not see the slander. I also promise that if you watch my wife’s reporting, you will see nothing but truth and a genuine concern for all people and disdain for corruption. But individuals do not have a guaranteed right to 24/7 access to her. She is human.

@chkrosp @ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX Chase, without making judgements about your intent, I see from the screen shot that you accused my wife of supporting the sexual exploitation of children. I can’t see the rest of the tweet, but that would be enough for me to block anyone. You understand that’s not okay, right?

@ChesterTweet @TrackCoachEvans @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX Can you ask her why she isn't willing to have a civil discussion about the topic of accuracy in her reporting? I would ask her myself, but as you can see, she blocked me before we could finish our conversation.

@ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I don’t see anything new or slanderous. But I also dislike social media and am tired of searching. I do see a lot of ugly trolling behavior directed at my wife, which is exactly why I dislike social media. People don’t think about the consequences of their words anymore.

@CaseyMa28640646 @ChesterTweet @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX Wow she has pipes!

@CaseyMa28640646 @ChesterTweet @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX Mississippi Queen is a good one

@ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I believe that my wife kindly asked that your mother not tweet about her family. I’d ask the same from you, as you seem to be someone that cares about a right to privacy. And I hope that your efforts to engage civility are not discouraged by this. This world needs more civility.

@ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I also support her right to block whoever. Please understand that she is flooded by people who want to engage with her, including bullies. If she blocked you, it was not personal. She just doesn’t have the bandwidth to engage with everyone and needs to protect her own serenity.

@ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX My wife shares my deep concern for the well-being of children. All children. She is a professional and has a tremendous amount of integrity. I don’t know what you hope to accomplish by tweeting at me, but I support her work and courage to report on difficult and complex issues.

@ChesterTweet @CaseyMa28640646 @wsuares @paytonnmay @OKCFOX I no longer work for the district. Additionally, disciplinary investigations involving students are confidential by law, and so very few within the district of literally thousands of employees would have known anything about the incident.

@abbscosby @ENorthTrack Thanks! The amount of times I randomly think about the teams you ran on is unhealthy. 😅 I enjoyed every minute. It’s good to see you doing well.

@ENorthTrack Two amazing coaches that I was fortunate to run for. Best of luck in the next chapter!♥️

🚨 Retirement Alert 🚨 The 2023 Track & Field season will begin without two familiar faces at the helm of ENTF. 😭🧵🪡👀

@SolsticeFlores @ENorthTrack Thanks! Hope you are thriving.

@ENorthTrack Congratulations coaches! On to bigger and better! Thank you for what both of you did for me! #enhsclassof2017

@theoldman21 Thank you! I still think about Mason (curse of a coach—you never forget your athletes). I hope he is well.

@TrackCoachEvans Coach, congratulations on retirement. While my son Mason was not an ideal student athlete, he did learn a lot from you. Appreciate your coaching, teaching and efforts to help shape him as a young person. I always felt like he was in good hands with you and Tommy Nash. Best wishes

What a wild ride it has been. I am sincerely thankful for all of it—even the hard times because, much like in the crazy sport of Track & Field, it is how we respond to difficulty that makes us who we are. Visit me at @OKCNM or run @OKCMarathon as I move on to a new mission!
