KBD

Do we know what type of defense he's running?

Georgia Tech ran a 3-4 defense but I have no clue what he ran at schools he was a head coach

How 'bout them Dores!

 

Been trying to tell him and everyone that neither one of them will be the next HC or even in the next 10 to 15 yrs. Blake has other interest. And the only wat Wesley takes it, is if he is looking for something to do once he retires from College. Wesley is on his way up, trust me. I'd expect his next move to be to a group of 5 school or possibly a Power 5 as a positional coach.

 

Anyways, Dr. Satt has a plan. and the only thing that matters right now is that that plan involves Waggoner leading the Jackets.

thats my point Coach Satt always has a plan and Waggoner is the coach if he ever leaves We worry about that then right now the whole point is winning now and not in the future and there are lot of coaches that would take TC job and like I said finding a coach wouldn't be a problem

This is where your problem lies. A "good hire" for an established program is when both parties plan on a long term relationship...our coach may receive that "can't pass it up" offer and accept another job tomorrow, and if he does I'll wish him and his family the best, because I know that he was "all in" from the beginning and never thought of us as a stepping stone. I do think that in certain situations a short term hire is ok, but Trousdale Co. isn't in that place, and swapping coaches every two years will hurt the program. Either you believe in the coach or you don't...what if he does a great job with the kids, and has deep playoff runs, but no gold ball...can you justify firing him if your "long term" coach decides that he might want the job? Sorry but I don't understand why you would be happy if the coach were looking for greener pastures before he even unpacked.

I never said he looking for another job just that if he is offered a better job on a bigger stage then he must had did something right in TC if he leaves we will hire another great coach TC has only had 4 coachs in over 20yrs not like the head coach was fired as a coach he was fired as a teacher so he couldn't be the coach anymore I believe in the Dr I know he has a plan and that he is prepared for anything he is always prepared for anything and everything

Your are seriously mistaken if you think for one minute that either or the Satterfield's are are going to be a head coach in Trousdale. I would like to know who you think the future coach is?

im not mistaken I'm not talking about the near future I'm referring to years down the road like 10-15 and if not one of them There is still a coach on staff that is the head coach of the junior high that would also take the job at drop of a dime he will be also in a few years

Like I said before ppl in Trousdale know that he is a stop gap we know who i future head coach will be down the road if he leaves that's ok we still will win 7-10 games a year but just because he doesn't stay at school for a long period of time doesn't make him a bad coach

If you think he is going to bring a championship, you're delusional. If you're only focused on championships in Trousdale, TN you must be handing out participation trophies not only to the kids but to the parents too. I'd be more concerned about how that coach is going to build and grow my son. It's a shame that Character doesn't matter anymore. There is a sucker born everyday I guess. As for the person that asked for a link to the article. Seek and you shall find. Google is a wonderful resource, sometimes you have to dig deep to find the good stuff or make a few phone calls to the right people. Sounds like your administration didn't do that as well. Best of luck.

character is part of being a yellow jacket until you live here you won't and don't understand what being a yellow jacket is all about all of what you are saying is he said she said stuff who cares we judge him on the here and now not his past I doubt coach Clint would hire someone base on what google says about the person we and no we don't hand out participation trophies we just put gold footballs in the trophy case

Trousdale People will not be happy with any outsider. Barker never had a chance. Only reason Creasy (Lewis Co. Native) did was because he was on staff for a number of years prior to being call upon to take over. Waggoner is already starting out in cellar. Trousdale Fans are spoiled! I wish they would give the man a chance. I personally feel that Barker was doing some good things but people never gave him a shot. I'm afraid the same thing will happen with Waggoner unless he wins 2017 title. Until then, this man will be judged on everything including what he orders at McDonald's.

 

I know Waggoner is not the person i wanted (Dobbs was) but he is who got the job. And from what it sounds like, things will be very similar to the Satterfield days (which could be a good thing). Everyone let the man get in here and get to work before you decide if he is a good coach or not. I know there are red flags but as KBD said, people change and grow up. Everyone of you reading this has made mistakes along the way. Relax!

 

Merry Christmas and God Bless! Go Yellow Jackets!

thats the biggest problem with most people in Trousdale is that he not from here and that we went outside the Trousdale coaching tree for a coach but if he does it coach Clint way only good stuff can come from that Barker was learning on the job and the fans where not okay with it but he hurt himself by not being part of the community and with the players some loved the man and some were not going to play this year and same with most of the parents but in the end he did himself in but he was a good person and I think he would have been a good coach but he wasn't going to follow the TC way he was going to do it his way and the fans were not having that

This is going to be fun, light the match because your program is about to go up in ashes. Apparently Trousdale didn't do their research on this guy. S.O.S. isn't the half of it. They need to call teachers, administrators, parents at these schools. There is an article online from the Crescent City AD that sums it up. Promises, promises, in the end he doesn't care about kids but only to use them to further his career. I'm shocked that this guy is back in high school athletics and that there isn't better research done. Everyone has references that will say good things about them but dig deeper people. SMH....Best of Luck Trousdale! I give him a year maybe two.

when coachs leave programs sometimes it happens on bad terms just like the at Barker left TC program this year he hasn't Coach in high school for a few years he was younger then people grow and learn from the mistakes they make but at same time I don't know what happend at that school just like you don't know the facts all that matters is thatTC win more gold balls the rest will fall where it falls like I said if he leaves in 3 years but wins Two stTe titles we will take it people in TC we all know who the coach of our future as long as we win titles is all that matters

Lebanon has won 21 games in 10 years for an average of 2.1 wins per year. I don't care who the new coach is. It is not realistic to think it won't take time to turn it around.

with out talent coaching will on take you so far

Who interviewed? Word in TC was only 8 were interviewed . Did Coach Stephen Jackson apply?

dont know for sure the good ole Dr satterfield never told who he interviewed are who even applied

Wasting away and going to be further in the hole after losing first game to TC. Dumb and Dumb decision to play them.

exactly they should have called Red boiling springs or Pickett co maybe even Mt Juliet Christian those teams are more in the lvl of Lebanon and they would have a chance to win those games

I don't understand why it matters how long he stays at TC if we start back winning gold balls again and he moves on to a bigger or better job then the hire was good for both sides and who cares why he took the job all that matters is what the results are at the end of the seasonnnext year

Yes the best, top dog 1A/2A teams can beat the worst 5/6a. But the good 5a/6a schools are simply just better. There isn't anything wrong with that at all. More players, more depth, way bigger schools to pick kids from. That doesn't hold true for the current Lebanon program. They are a real big 6a school, but still aren't dressing many kids at all. This is because it is hard to drag the kids out of the hallways once a team has been ran into rock bottom.

see at least you get my point Thank You and yes your right I know TC can't compete with the top big schoo

I'm not bashing the man or the school but why he would leave a school like Georgia Tech to coach a 1a team seems a little fishy

some coachs like being in control and being the head man but I don't have a clue that's just my reasoning lol

What county Is Lebanon in?

Gallatin mopped the floor with TC in a fall scrimmage in the 90's, (I know this random fact because of knowing a couple guys who played back then) the same year Trousdale won a title. You had a 1 point win against Gallatin in 2013. 28-27, you had to block the extra point to win, and had home cooking on the last TD drive you guys had to put you ahead late in the 4th quarter. I'll never forget the call. Your punter ran outside trying to fake a punt, but when he realized it wasn't going to work, he tried to punt at the last second and it shanked off the side of his foot. Gallatin would've had the ball inside Trousdale's 30 yd line with a 1 point lead late in the 4th. But the ref threw a flag and said Gallatin roughed the kicker. (Keep in mind that he presented himself as a runner by trying to pick up the first down). After that free first down, TC went down the field and scored, & got the 2 pt conversion on that drive.

This was an undefeated championship year for TC, and many will say one of the best teams they've fielded. The very next year, Gallatin had a very convincing win against Trousdale in the Waveyard. And the game hasn't been played the last two years, but based on the slight struggles that TC has had playing the smaller schools in 2015-2016, it's maybe a good thing that this game wasn't scheduled again.

Trousdale picked a great time when they scheduled Gallatin in 2013-2014. If the game was played every year all through the 2000's, I don't think it would look all the pretty for the Jackets. If you disagree, stick Gallatin in 2a, and stick Trousdale in 5a & watch how much differently both teams look. Trousdale is a VERY GOOD small school. And based off gold balls, the best 2A program the state has seen. But they can NOT regularly compete with the better 5a & 6a teams. If they had to play MJ, Gallatin, Beech, Hville, Franklin, Boro schools, Ravenwood, etc all the time, it would show. Just saying don't let the 28-27 win over GHS on a 15-0 championship run (a year that no other team than Gallatin that even tested TC) let you think that they will regularly defeat good 5a/6a teams. Will they defeat Lebanon the coming year imo? Absolutely. I will pick Trousdale to win that game 9/10 times until Lebanon can prove that they can win more than 1 game a year. But if Trousdale beats Lebanon, please don't talk about how they could play against the rest of 6a. Lebanon is LITERALLY the worst 6a school in the entire state at this time.

that wasn't the best TC championship team more like one of the weakest the late 90's team was the best team TC has ever had and yes all that is true I never said that TC could compete against 5/6A every week bec sane 11 play both sides of the ball my hole point is that Lebanon isn't better than TC and will lose to TC next year I'm a realistic fan but your wrong about that team being the best TC team and for that next year against Gallatin TC best player was hurt and that team wasn't that good and for any game in last two seasons we had a disaster for a head coach with Barker he was a awful head coach but The weakest 5/6A team won't beat the strongest 1/2A team Lebanon would struggle against the top 10 1/2A teams in the state but like I said my whole point is just because Lebanon is 6A doesn't give them a win against TC because they are bigger

I will guarantee you 100% he will not be at Trousdale until he retires. The next Trousdale coach will be an alum.

i don't know how long he will be in TC but I think everyone knows that your 100% right on the money

KBD.. Andy McCollum who recruits our school said he ran the Wing T and I at most of the schools he was at. He had a running back at chattooga that's in the NFL now I think with Miami (Senorise Perry).

yea I thought it would be the wing T that's what most people in TC want they didn't like the spread to much last couple years but we have speed to fit the scheme

I think this iwas a great hire for TC

The new coach. Not Harp

he assistant coach from Georgia tech university Brad Waggoner

Who is the coach

the new coach or the hall of fame coach

Crescent City was 1-9 the year before he got there couldn't find anything prior (maybe a new school) and won 5, 9, 5 and 8 games the 4 years after he left. He went 4-6 which was an improvement over 1-9 and if it was indeed a new school that is about all you can ask.

 

Luverne High School is a top notch program. They won their region and +8 games 2000-2004. They won their region every year from 1994-2004 except for 2 years. They won state championships in 1991 and 1994. They played for the state championship in 2003. He took over in 2005 and won 8, 11 and 5 games the next 3 years winning the region in 2006. After he left they won 8, 10, 7, 7 and 11 games the next 5 years.

 

Pike County is one of the better programs in Alabama. They have won 5 state championships including 2003, 2005 and 2006. They went 12-1 in 2007. He took over in 2008 and went 5-5. That was the only year from 2000-2010 that they didn't win at least 8 games.

 

Chattooga High School won 7, 7, 4 and 7 games the 4 years before he got there and he won 9, 4 and 5. They have won 2, 2, 5, 7 and 8 since he left.

 

Decatur High School won 5, 7, 7 and 4 the 4 years before he got there and he went 5-5. They won 6, 6 and 7 after he left.

 

Lumpkin County High School looks like a up and down program. The coach before him won 4, 6, 6 and 2 games. He went 2-8. They have since won 5, 2 and 4.

 

So he has coached at some pretty good schools.

could you tell what type of offense and defense he ran at those schools everything about his background at Georgia tech points to a wing T and a 3-4 defense

seems like a mix bag of good, bad and just okay it's hard to tell with high school that we don't know exactly how good they are and how they played or even who the played he has no reason not to win in TC if he does that here in TC with 2and 5 win seasons he won't be here long but maybe he has gotten better with being at Georgia tech and we will see but like I said after Barker it can't get much worse especially with the offseason and Barker full contact tackling practices that cause lot of injuries instead of having a conditioning and weight program in the offseason

I don't think there was 6 classifications in early 90's but I'm talking about the late 90's TC teams some of best teams in history of Tennessee and with a hall of fame coach back then yea I will compare those teams have nothing to do with Lebanon those teams were winning gold balls those were not you'll team or players don't matter like I said before and don't you realize where Oakland coach came from that's there now lol and yeah we do compare check your history of the gold balls and who was winning them in 90s I know we won 4 in 90s I don't think all those teams won 3 or more in 10 yrs are won 8 in past 16 yrs and how many Lebanon won in past 20yrs ??? Case close
