Hopefully so, and I hope you don’t think I am or went to Waverly because of my username. I live in Smyrna Have a lot of friends from around that area though. They do have nice facilities The majority of success is from talent. If it was from coaching then why would Lewis County ever have a down year? What about Wayne County? They get the State title when they have the Rice boys. It has to be a combination of things talent, support from admin and community, and coaching.

Cheatham county hired a really good experienced football coach, we will see if the powers that be in Centerville can do the same.

Waverly was 8-2 regular season and had beaten Hickman by 20 in regular season that year It’s hard to win at any real area school consistently the ones that do year and and year out are few and far between. Hopefully for Hickman they will find what they are looking for and when they do hopefully he will have success and stay. That’s what makes it harder for rural area schools. Like you mentioned McConnell he came in had some good seasons and got out of town. Hickman County is similar to Cheatham County, and Stewart County some years you may have better players than other years but it’s hard to maintain. It can be a fight at places like that to get to 5 wins some years. Hickman County the last 20 years has had a year when they were playing 2A with 4A enrollment and players. Had a year when East upset someone so they played East in 2nd round Then the year they beat Waverly. Other than those 3 years not a lot of success...

Is the region at East Ridge?

Where will tournament be at?

Who do you think will get the job? Someone on staff?

How long has it been since a coach even lasted 6 years there? Should they have won any of those playoff games that they lost? If he was losing to teams he should beat then that is a different story Averaging 5 wins a year at a place like Hickman county is hard to do other then when they played 2A with 4A enrollment and talent back when Swenson was there I know his first year that team had no business beating Waverly and I was shocked they did beat Waverly in the 2nd round. Arguments can always be made for or against keeping a coach I suppose If they are expecting more out of football than just going to the playoffs they should expect more in other sports as well My daughter played softball against them a couple years ago and they weren’t any good to put it nicely Is the former baseball player Smithson still the AD? If the football coach gets fired for having mediocre seasons will they make changes other sports?

Great hire for Cheatham County.

Absolutely yes for it

Hopefully the new coach will get them going, they have some talent on the way There is some tradition and pride in that place as well

Great hire for Marion hope he stays for awhile Do they have anything coming up from middle schools?

According to some folks I know from that area 100% it won’t be Swenson He just met with them out of courtesy. Jon Offutt An assistant from a high school in Missouri who has connections there? Maybe Or someone on the staff probably going to be someone that was on the staff last years Not many were beating down the doors for that job They just fired a coach who was from there who had taken them to the playoffs 5 out of 6 seasons. Took them as deep in the playoffs as they ever have been. According to Tn football report was the longest tenured coach in they had there 30 years. They played the state semi finalist this year Riverside and lost by a touchdown on the road according to coach T scoreboard Hope the guy that they fired lands on his feet somewhere, I have met him a couple times at state championship games and was a very nice guy. That’s why I called some folks I know down there to see what happened. General consensus among other coaches is that they made a mistake in firing him. Evidently they have nothing coming up from middle school either

Swenson turned the job down last week
