What's coming in isn't what was. Brother's success was built on the backs of John Crosby and Philip Montgomery and 7 maybe 8 d1 players that Montgomery brought in to play 1A. Believe what you want fellas. Good luck to all of your teams this year.

You definitely did not see Philip Montgomery last year on the sidelines for Nashville Christian. It's ok to be wrong. I've been wrong before to. You can ask my ex wife! Haha Seriously, it was not Coach Montgomery. He did not step in the sidelines for NCS Last year. Jeff was the offensive coordinator and coach Shaw was the defensive coordinator for NCS last year. I should know, my son was on the team.

Obviously you did not attend a Nashville Christian football game last year. This my friend is "fake news." Montgomery was not on the coaching staff for the 17-18 season. The situation is and was as I said it was, 100 percent.

Ex Brentwood High AD Ron Seigenthaler is now the new AD at NCS. Brothers stepped down from that role but did promote himself to Director of Operations. LOL Very good timing!

It's just hard for some to hear the truth. NCS admin and board have handed the keys to Brothers. With them he's running off players and coaches. Folks he ran off his best friend Philip Montgomery. Another fact: Philip Montgomery is the best football coach to ever coach at NCS. Also a fact: This year's team will look more like a 9/10 year old HYSA youth soccer team than an NCS football team from recent years and there is nothing in the pipeline. Why? Because there is no Philip Montgomery or John Crosby. BUT, there is a Jeff Brothers!

Sir, I was personally told in a meeting by Brothers that "it was not his job to help promote any player he's ever coached on his teams to college football coaches." He will not do a thing for them. Parents, If you have a son or daughter who aspires to play college sports you do not want this guy as their AD.

The question was asked why players were leaving. Private schools cost money slick. Parents deserve to know what they are paying for.

Do you mind posting yours?

Montgomery left a year ago. He walked away from coaching altogether. He and Brothers high school buddies/teammates had it out during school. Montgomery resigned on the spot mid week just before the end of the 2016 school year. In part because nothing was being done for the kids as well as a luandry list of other coaching differences. Brothers took over this past year as the OC. Absolutely horrible predictable play calling. Zero adjustments after halftime. Crosby left 2 years ago and so went the weight program. New DC this past year absolutely clueless on the field and even worse in the weight room. Brothers loves being thought of as this wonderful coach and mentor. He's well read and does deliver good pregame speaches but he will not lift a finger for the kids that layed it down for him. This is all spot on. Nothing more true has ever been said on the T.

Brothers is the most arrogant person I've ever met. The kids, parents and the coaches I mentioned are leaving because Brothers has a "JEFF" complex. The school needs to change its name to JBA. Mark my words... "The NCS football run is over." Brothers is too lazy to coach his way out of this! Attn all Div 2a coaches: Load the box, rush every down. Line can't hold, can't throw and can't run = DONE!

The Jeff Brothers show is over! Fact: he's had 7 players good enough for D1 programs and won 1 state championship in 1a. He is a lazy coach and does nothing for his players! I personally know these young men and know these teams. He would have been beaten 10 out of 10 times by any coach in our divisions if they would have had our talent. For all you Braves fans, he's the Bobby Cox of HS small ball football in Tennessee. He's losing kids and coaches because he can't communicate. 100% FACT!!! The 2 best coaches NCS ever had Crosby and Montgomery leaving says it all! Do NOT drink the koolaid NCS is brewing! This program is done! Brothers is done at NCS. If you don't believe me wait until you see the record at the end of this season. Prediction: Brothers leaves NCS for the Bellevue High job IF he is lucky enough to get hired by metro.

Jeff Brothers lost that game and the Davidson game and the Wayne County game last year and the Union City games. He's is a horrible play caller and simply gets out coached in big games! IMO He is the Bobby Cox and Phil Fulmer of small ball high school football in Tennessee. He's had all the talent in the world for a 1A and DII A school and 1 state championship to show for it. He's had 4 D1 players on a 1a team and couldn't get it done because of horrendous play calling. (Daniel Bituli, Alex Given, Mario McGraw and Brant Lawless.) He's been tremendously successful against weak teams and trust me he loves the record it's gotten him. He is EXPOSED and simply not the coach or leader he pretends or sees himself as being. As a senior parent I of course wanted our team to win as many games as possible but I am honestly not sad to see the CoachBroShow come to an end and neither is my son. Great 2nd half by FC! Your team played hard and deserved the win! Good luck to you in Cookeville!

From what I have seen on film I agree with OrangeEagle the line play cancels out. It will be interesting to see a Smith/Lawless matchup! Running back edge to NCS. Both teams will have to find just enough of a passing game. Slight edge to FC. Special teams edge to NCS. Overall skill play edge to NCS. Note: There is danger lurking if the ball is in the air. Congrats to both teams and praying for a safe game.

Trust me I would love for NCS to play DCA. I just don't think you can outscore DA. That said there is an ankle injury from what I hear at DA. That could could possibly play a factor....

IMO DA wins this one 35-14. I just don't think the DCA defense can keep DA from putting 30+ on the board. I would love to see a DCA win! Upsets are always fun.. unless you get upset.
