The Irish will graduate 19 some odd seniors in May and will field a very young team in the Fall. A lot of the young guys that will be filling roles played on the 2014 team due to injuries so we will see how they fare this go around. Coach Clark is entering his sixth season and is already one of the longest tenured coaches ever in HC football so the word "program" comes up; with that you have to get to a point where you don't rebuild every other year but rather reload every year. Can he put together a playoff team in 2016?

The thing about winning is you have to play the teams on your schedule. Houston played a VERY weak schedule last yesr, but won the game's they could win. I'd say next year will be about the same. If the teams they play are weak, they will make another playoff run.

Yes their schedule was very weak but after a 2-8,1-9 year I would not expect them to schedule Alcoa..

How's Clarksville Academy going to look? I know they were pretty young last year.

Houston lost several and Clarksville academy is going to be better. They have a really good kid to play qb this year as a sophomore. He transferred from Lafayette last year. I saw him up close being from trousdale and I'm telling you he is legit. If they have any talent around him CA will be better this year. Neither team can compete with Huntindon or Wayne from that region and first round bounce in the playoffs is all that can be expected when they will end up getting Ncs or trousdale in the first round

    • Tax payer dollars are paid for certified teachers to "teach" and then coach. The primary job is to teach.  There are some district that ay awesome supplements and others that don't. Dyersburg and Dyer County are pretty close if I remember correctly. I would imagine that Football and basketball are above $10,000 now.  I've heard that Milan is $20,000 for boys basketball. I would imagine that football is more than that in Milan.  Collierville has camps that coaches get paid extra for. 3 camps a year, 100 kids a camp, $30,000 right there.  There are places like Memphis-Shelby County schools where the supplements are garbage even for the head coaches. I made less than $3,000 as the head assistant at Germantown in 2015 when we were 26-4 and one of the best teams in the Southeast. As a head middle school coach next year I will make between $4-5,000 at a municipal in Shelby County.  Coaches should be compensated for the jobs that are required but lets keep in mind that they are educators first.  It's pretty frustrating to other teachers that work their tale off teaching 6-7 classes a day to watch someone roam campus, not teach (or have very minimal responsibilities), and get paid the same (more with supplements) as a person who has the some years of experience or sometimes less. 
    • This will get coaches leaving the profession very quickly if this kid wins this case. This is absurd... 
    • yeah money aint right there anymore
    • I suppose you are correct but from my understanding it was going to be a situation of the HC saying yay or nay to every play
