Well with that being the case then Clinton might want to be a ground and pound team that just tries to keep the ball away and keep the scores close. They need to just focus on their defense then so that way all the games can be low scoring. I also wonder if the coaches son is going to really come especially if it looks like they aren't going have the athletes around them to allow him to operate. If you try and run spread with no talent against Fulton, Powell, West and Oak ridge then your trouble when they just lock up man to man and bring pressure
Let me understand this...
1) The consensus from the fans, parents, & "CoachT-ers" was that McKamey couldn't win because of his ground-and-pound offense so he needed to be replaced.
2) There isn't enough talent for a fast-paced/spread-type offense at Clinton so they need to ground-and-pound to keep games close so they can have a chance to win in the 4th quarter.
It's all starting to make sense now

It's a great offense if you are OK finishing 2nd in the state game.
JK OP.
Just like when Maryville finished behind Oakland's "Hybrid Wing-T" two years in a row

I heard from a couple of very connected guys this evening that Ellison, an assistant coach from one of the Sevier Co. Schools, and Union County’s defensive coordinator are in the hunt. Some of the higher ups saw a couple of UC’s games the last 2 years and took notice. Regardless, if they can steal Rang or Ellison, it would be a homerun, and anyone that can find a way to win at Union County at least deserves a look.
Isn’t the DC at Union Co. Clinton’s coach prior to McKamey? I’m not real sure how connected your “connections” are.

Since Brad Collette has been the AD, he's made two hires... Matt Byrd (baseball) and Randy Mckamey (Football). Both of those coaches had to be ran out of town for various reasons. The problem with Clinton is in the administration.
You can add the former boys soccer coach to that list too. Seems to me that if you can't please all of the parents all of the time, coaches are shown the door. That can't sound very attractive to a quality HC. Like SweetScience said, they'll have to pray they find a diamond in the rough if things are going to change. Unfortunately, that hasn't seemed to work in the last 21yrs.

As much as I like Coach Shattuck, he only had 3 winning seasons in 10yrs. And, Clinton went 7-33 in his first four seasons (0-10 in his last). Clinton Football has only had FOUR winning seasons in the last 20yrs. Anonymous critics publicly dragging down a coach will not make it any better.

Having a talented son as a QB would not have been a real factor. Even if he's a stud, he'll only be there 4 seasons, and then what? On top of that, I thought the returning QB was a bright spot for Clinton this past season. He threw for over 1000yds. and several TD's in 7 games.
