Coach Kelly Myers, coach at Hickman Co. High will make a good head coach for the MP Tigers. He will get them back to the Walt Smith days. I know he has applied and the "powers that be" need to take a close look.

I think smith was a product of the talent that was there, hence why he jumped ship when he saw it drying up

Walt Smith days? Lol. Take your only great player and run him right. Run him left. Run him up the middle. Give him a break and the opponent catches up. Put him back in and regain the lead. Smith had Marco Dailey. That's it.

You are correct in both points... Smith had loads of talent to work with in '03, '04,'05, then had the superman #12 for a few more years til '08. The talent pool is drying up for mTp as far as kids having the want and drive to play football. The kids just aren't wanting to play. I wouldn't be expecting big things from mTp for a while (few years) until something or someone can energize the possible athletes walking the halls there to come out and play. This coming from a student at school there now; talked with her about this all yesterday, she said the kids going there now are just "lazy and just do not want to make the commitment in time nor hard work that it takes to play sports".... She's a smart one and does play sports at mTp. I take her at her word.

 

You also have to consider that young coaches like Smith and Hoath more than likely had goals in moving into higher paying, bigger schools like 4-5A, to move up in their status and careers. So just not the discipline problems or talent drying up to be the sole reasons.

No how does a Collinwood fan get on here and talk about Mt Pleasant football when they have only beaten them two times since 2003??

 

No Smith or Marco the past two seasons and the combined score is 91-28?

 

2003 & 2009 are the only wins Against Mt Pleasant in that time frame

    • While I appreciate being credited with multiple accounts, I have to say that is not true. Will you please report back to your people that I am not someone who provides sharp, witty banter, but rather someone who is putting the shoe on the other foot for some people that have been repeatedly bashing others here and in real life for the past few years? Everything that I have stated has been backed by factual evidence or public record, so no need to be sharp and witty. 
    • Yes this process is moving slower than I would have expected
    • also was told coady auston applied, he served as defensive coordinator for greenfield under don pitt several years ago before going to Obion county  
    • TSSAA restrictions for hiring non-faculty coaches have been removed for over a year at this point. In the past a non-faculty person had to be "grandfathered" by being an assistant coach for five years, being fingerprinted, and having a background check run per TSSAA rules... since those were rescinded, the board of directors for the school district are responsible for any/all restrictions on hiring non-faculty personnel. I guess what I'm saying to you is that if you really wanted what you posted, it's already possible as long as your local BOE will allow for it.
    • stop it, rlh. you’re gonna get me all misty eyed and sentimental.    i see seven fairly regularly. ….but slim shady, that’s like spotting bigfoot on main street. you just hope he doesn’t spot you.
