Holy crap!  Thank you for someone finally saying it!  We get it, Tygard hung the moon. Nevermind the mess he LEFT here..the money mismanagement (that was honestly borderline criminal).  The lack of integrity...give it a season and the folks down in Hamilton County will see it also.  It was a train wreck waiting to happen...he got out before he got busted.  You only listen to his side of the story...you don't know the slimy side of the Tygard story.  The stuff he (or his coaches) do NOT want in the public eye...ask his sidekick coach where he was when he disappeared for 2 months..

I assure you  that you don't know anything of the current coaching staff...you simply choose to listen to the crap Tygard pours into you and you take it..hook, line and sinker.  You would be FLOORED by the stuff that went on there...but no doubt, you wouldn't even try to believe it.  Tygard is ONLY in it for Tygard.  He used Marshall and Brown to boost Tygard...so he could move on down the road and pretend like he built them.  Those boys were Blackman built...NOT Tygard built...and Honestly, Tygard's ego stole Brown's Mr Football award.  Daddy Risner had him by the "Mini Tygards"...so much so that he was forced to push Risner for Mr Football...splitting the vote and robbing Brown of a sure Mr Football title.  He did it just so Tygard could say "Look at me..."I had 2 Mr Football Candidates!!!"   Ask any lineman what they thought of Tygard, ask the Running backs what they thought of Tygard.  Ask any of the "Other Kids" not being recruited by big D1 schools. Ask Bell's father what he thought of Tygard before he booked it back to McGavock.  Ask the recruiters that came through. Ask ANY coach worth their salt what they thought of Tygard...you will not like the answer.  

So take your "Daddy's Money"...and head down to Cleveland on Friday nights...trust me, the boys know the trash you talk about them...and if someone were to ask them if you'll be missed...the will simply answer "He Left A Lot to be Desired"....but "What do I Know"?

Bingo!! That team was a mess internally last year. It was only masqueraded because they had success. We all know how this movie will end in Cleveland. I’m still laughing at “Ask his sidekick why he was missing for 2 weeks” It’s hilarious because I know the reason. Blackman will be fine moving forward. Now they have someone who wants to develop that program and wants to be there.

Riverdale underachieving again. I just don’t get it with them. They have the roster but can never come out in games like this.

To quote the late Denny Green” They are who we thought they were “ ….. And that’s paper champions!!

Always hearing the “SEC” of HS football. But I guess they are…. Oakland is AL/GA then everyone else.

Tullahoma?

Oaklands 2nd string could win State!! Stop!!!

How’s the transition going with the new HC? How’s the staff coming along? 

Sounds like Coach K is the man over there at Blackman.  I’m hearing structure, stability, accountability, willingness to work with others, etc, etc,  Congrats Blackman faithful.

The rumors/ stories coming out about  the previous staff is mind blowing!! 

I’ll play this subliminal game. It’s hard to protect  a person  who is hated by his entire  school !!! Learn how to play the game,MORONS!!!

I really wish they stop letting parents and what other schools say dictate the program at Blackman. Kids want to be loose, y’all complained about a coach that gets the spotlight on the program and plays music? Like grow up seriously! This is not boot camp you have to build a culture that locks folks in. Tygard definitely made an impact and definitely developed talent you can say what you want but if was trash he definitely wouldn’t have had the amount of hatred coming his way 

Agree with everything but developed talent. Those 2 guys had the measurables to seek D1 attention. And when they’re 90% of the offense, of course they’re going to shine. Question?? Where are the D2, D3, NAIA kids at? I know about the D1 guys?  But I’ve already broke my Grandmas rule about arguing with fools!!

Its not about coach Tygard, it about Kriesky. Couch or Woods would have been better options in my opinion. The funny thing is everybody talks about having a "great " coach like Creasy makes all the difference. I just don't think Kriesky is that guy maybe I am wrong. but No one on this thread will give a crap in 6 months from now if Blackman is lagging behind but me

I totally get it. But what are the true expectations at Blackman? Creasy has not lost a district game, since he’s been there!! Read it again. Unfortunately, the ceiling is getting to the quarter finals against Oakland right now. To your point, T did that, but wouldn’t be able to sustain it. Jimmys and Joes have always mattered. And at the end of the day, Oakland just has more dudes. And I’m talking about the dudes that are already there, not the transfers. But these coaches around here should be ashamed losing to a guy that RUNS A WING T!! SMH. Go watch the CPA game on how they defended that. It truly was basic youth league ball. Hat on a hat, and this is your assignment no matter what!!

They may have been spread, but he was run heavy in it . Again what "HE " said in the DNJ he wanted to go back in the direction of what Blackman did 2 years prior to Tygard... I was at those games .... we the ran ball most of the time.  My point is you are not going to have a lot of success playing smash mouth ball at Blackman. We don't have that kind of personnel currently and its not in the pipe. I am all for toughening up the defense, but you gotta change with the game or get left behind. 

Dude!!!! You can’t run 95% of the time, just like you can’t pass 95% of the time. Personnel????? That team had 70 WRs and only 2 could catch or you only would throw to two. I love your passion for the guy, but darn!!!l lol

37-38?? But they need stability moving forward so I understand. Unfortunately you’re playing for 2nd place in this district anyway. I think it makes sense, and the RuCo ties help. But 37-38? Probably could’ve done better, but the previous coach made them select safe! We’ll see. And don’t get in your feelings about this post, not knocking K at all. Honestly think that’s what that program needs right now

I know from previous post that you're friends with Tygard, so I understand your passion and defending his tenure here. And....you might be right. Having said that, from the parents I have spoken to, most would disagree with you that the culture is better now than under previous regimes.   

Right. That team was more divided than a TV dinner tray, Stevie Wonder could see that. Pure circus for 2 years. Was only masked a little because of the success. I know it sucks to be starting over, but Blackman fans should be dancing and rejoicing!!

Respectfully ., Siegel is building a 5-5 season. This big dogs in the city pick them dry of any talent. The demographic and culture of Siegel is not the same as Oakland Riverdale or Blackman. 

Fair. That’s why I said Blackman has got to get this right, so that continues to be a place of destination. The kids that came last year were there because of the system and what it could do for them. Siegel has stability. And if they had any kind of offense they might’ve beat Blackman last year. Rockvale is improving also. Blackman could be in the bottom feeder tier the next couple of years.

Agree. K is the safer more comfortable choice since he has had "some" success at Centennial, nothing earth shattering. Blackman has more resources.  He's been in Middle TN for a while and has developed a lot of relationships. Smith has a great record at Haywood, but it's west TN in a smaller classification.

I’m sorry it’s Crouch and Kriesky. The green hills guy. These names are running together

Not doubting the information, just curious.. why would Kriesky be one of the top candidates for this job?

He’s got experience and has had some success as a HC. But IMO, the relationships make him top candidate. These RuCo football roots are very deep. Again, this is a message board ,so these are opinions and hearsay . 

Nothing confirmed, but either smith or Kreisky. K is the “safe” pick because of his RuCo background. Plus he’s getting the backing of area coaches. But again, this is all hearsay. They need to get this right, because  Blackman can become the new Siegel of Football in this area. Also Siegel is quietly building something over there.

Kriesky it is.

I’m here for this. These next 2 years are going to be better than any sitcom/show/movie/series!!
