They fell within TSSAA range at 2a & 3a. Didn’t play up like some others who ended up forcing TSSAA to form the the public/private divisions to equalize the playing field with the financial aide sub plots. LA is clearly entering the arms race and frankly shocked at the seriousness. Brought a D1 baseball assistant HC into the baseball fold and now bringing a nationally recognized former NFL QB and Super Bowl winner to elevate the football program. You can be a nah sayer but it’s clear LA understands what they need to do and are putting the pieces in place to elavate the programs.

Dang, I’m guessing the same was said about Alabama, Michigan, Ohio State, Penn State. Oh those are colleges never mind - be interesting to see how Ensworth will die off without Bowers and how BA is better now then with Flatt. Lipscomb’s history speaks for itself. Were they prepared to jump into DII, nope, most saw the last two years coming.

https://www.google.com/amp/www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/25796869/trent-dilfer-hired-lipscomb-academy-head-football-coach%3fplatform=amp Just another opinion...most kids are now noticing this recognition on platforms like ESPN and 247. Same platforms that help these kids get recognized for the next level. Dilfer is not at Lipscomb for the money, he already has it, he’s there for a greater purpose in his life and the life of the players, students, and community.

Very impressive media event on campus with Rudy Kalis doing the interview. Check it out on your favorite news tonight. Oh and it made national media exposure as well. Also announced a national search already underway for addditional coaches. No he hasn’t coached a state champ HS team - just QB’d, read defenses, audibled at the line and has a Super Bowl ring to show for it but agree completely that he doesn’t have any experience what so ever that translates into this role https://www.lipscomb.edu/academy/archive/detail/224/34217

Nice hire. Welcome to Music City!

May not have game coaching experience? Let’s see, was a favorite of Tom Dungy, played 4 years HS, played College, was a first round NFL pick, NFL starter, super bowl winner, played the most important position on the field in QB and my guess is if he wanted to coach at the NFL level, a team would hire him. He would be hard pressed to get out coached by any coach around here and if you’re an elite player, I’d assume you’d be smart enough to want to play for coach of this caliber. Where did Bowers or Martin or for that fact any of these HS coaches get their experience and can you honestly say any of these coaches carry a resume like Dilfer? LA has been humbled over the last couple of years and will face adversity while they retool the program but it’s only a matter of time. They now have the foundation down to build upon.

Done deal with Dilfer. Nice call! Didn’t see that coming

He’ll be the Dabo Sweeney of HS football.

I like the Trent Dilfer pick. Christian man, faithful family and has a daughter at “Lipscomb West” - Pepperdine where LU’s President came from. Nah. Not a chance an NFL QB takes a HS coaching job 2,000 miles away from home.

If you’re right then it’s got to be either Cutler or Holcomb. I’m betting on Cutler.

Must be a “Name”. University President to make the introduction at 3:30. Usually he stays out of the campus schools and has that administration making announcements. Not on this one. Should be interesting..

Formal announcement of the new Head Football Coach to made on Friday at 3:30pm

Nice pick Boog. You should get on with Herbie on Saturday mornings. Last year those pirates were up 3-0 at half and dusted the Stangs in the second half. Stangs had 6 starters out for that game as well. Should be interesting to see how they play after knocking a loop to GCS last week and having those Bucs coming up to the city.
