Walt Smith - Giles County- I have seen him coach several years at MTP and Zion. Runner-up in the state this year at Giles County. At MTP he had some very good football players at skill positions and on the line. He has a great offensive mind and is able to motivate he kids to mesh together. At Zion, he took some average kids and made them believe they could win. He got them to the playoffs and had some big wins. I sure did hate to see him leave the Eagles Nest but I understand he had higher dreams. Once again at Giles, he has taken great talent and gotten them to believe in the team concept. I have talked to some of his past players and they say he is a players coach. He puts his players in good situations to make big plays.

 

Go Eagles! Go Tigers!

I think you could add Roger Perry on the list as one of the best in Middle TN. With what he did at Portland and turning Mt Juliet around and making them a championship contender. Hasn't had the elite talent a lot of programs have had; but gets the most out of the talent he did have.

Roger didn't have elite talent at Portland but he had more than enough talent to win a state championship at MJ.

    • 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 since those were rescinded, the board of directors for the school district are responsible for any/all restrictions on hiring non-faculty personnel.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.
