This game will be a big challenge because the Govs struggle to stop the run. We've traded defensive problems for new ones. Last year, we were solid at stopping the run, but we were hapless at defending against the pass. And wouldn't you know.... Last year every team in the region was airing it out like crazy and this year everyone is running the ball well. Just our luck :huh:

So the Govs can't stop what the other team is doing?

I'm saying our defensive weakness plays into the strengths of other teams. Last year, we sucked at defending the pass and most of the teams in the region were pass happy. This year, we have a greatly improved secondary and suck at defending the run and all of a sudden all the teams have a good run game. That's bad luck lol

Every teams weaknesses plays into their opponents. That's why coaches break down film and study it and why teams practice.

That's all real nice on paper, but it doesn't work out real well in reality unless you are an open zone school that has a regular flow of top talent coming in from all over Blount and Knox Co. Most teams are not balanced and lean heavily on the run or pass. Meaning, they are gonna stick with their bread and butter no matter what because they dont have the means to change their offensive identity from week to week to exploit another team's weaknesses.

    • From my understanding, Jay Graham pretty much took over HC responsibilities in that game, so you can thank him. Cute Andy didn’t need help, though. Cute Andy could’ve beaten us without any assistant coaches.
    • 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...
