Facilities and location are very good at Overton. I think if any MNPS school good come up out of the gutter (PC, HB, CR not included) if would be Overton. With the right guy it could be a decent program.
Right guy off to a very good start!!!

Based on them having the first coach since Anderson retired that gives them a legit chance to be successful. He got rid of some dead weight on the staff. That is what created your jealousy. Your other problem is more deep seeded (racism).
Racism, not at all. Just because I don't think a coach is the answer does not mean I am a racist. I did not think previous coach was a good choice either. So what does make me? By the way , new Overton coach off to a great start.

I’m putting Overton at 4 and East 5. Also moving HB up.
Basing this on what? Beating HL in jamboree? New coach or recruits?

A twitter quote from Overton coach Broome after scrimmage . " Listen, what happened in the past here... As long as I am here, that will never- I mean never - happen again."

Metro Jamboree is August 12th at 7:00 PM. The halfs are:
Hillsboro @ Cane Ridge
Hunters Lane @ Overton
Stratford @ Glencliff
Maplewood @ Antioch
Pearl-Cohn @ McGavock
East Nashville @ Hillwood
Mt. Juliet Christian @ Whites Creek
This is crazy. Only parents will pay to see just a half of football. I always enjoyed seeing 6 different teams at one location.

I can't believe I am saying this but I agree with you. Can't cut it just go somewhere else. NCAA transfer portal mentality trickling down. Sad what it has become.
Are there coaches out there recruiting kids illegally? Absolutely. Are there parents shopping their kids around like they are a modern day Huggy Bear pimp? Unfortunately just as many.
High school football is not college.

You said it was the coaches? Maybe it was the parents? Do you have a problem with the new coaches? You said the kid didn’t win the starting job at his other school so he choose another school. Sounds like most kids to me now a days. Blame the parents and Society.
I have a problem with any coach regardless of color making first contact with any player and asking him to transfer.

Never been anything wrong with a parent or player seeking out another school for any reason. Wrong and unprofessional when a coach makes first contact with a player. How hard is that to understand.?

And don’t forget, Riverdale hired Coach A from Hillsboro.
I believe the post you are referring to is talking about black coaches that knowingly and openly recruit. Black coaches are not going to get hired coming from metro.

Not a Overton fan nor am familiar with the story. I’m just stating on what I seen and heard. Get out your feelings
I am just tired of these coaches who have to go get players from other schools. if they were so dang good at coaching as people say this would not be happening. If overton wins this fall it will not be coaching, it will be a new player out of county

After seeing some footage and talking to a few people yesterday I think Overton will have the best QB in metro Nashville this upcoming season. The kid can slang the ball. My Eagles looked pretty good on defense. Offense made some plays also. Hillsboro will looks different without the graduating QB but they are still long and Athletic. Hunters Lane made plays but they need to tackle the weight room.
7 on 7 is not football but nice recruiting job coach broome. Couldn't start at Nolensville but best in metro? Kid hasn't moved either , but stupid people including your new coach and admin think if I have a condo on harding place all is well. Also so much for coaching your own players being the answer when you have to go find some. I am sure players at Overton feel validated with their talents especially last years starter at QB.

Nashville is hiring boys to be the coaches based on race. That's the only thing they care about.
One more to go and metro is 100%

To find the problem with the athletic department at McGavock you need to look no further than Friendship Christian, Donelson Christian, Mt Juliet Christian, Goodpasture and Pope John Paul II. This does not even take into account the students that live in the Donelson & Hermitage area that elect to attend Hume Fogg or MLK magnet schools.
The real players are going to one of the four schools being successful due to open zone which is an invitation to recruiting.

LOD was a great contributor to coacht with his posts. He will be missed. I enjoyed going back and forth with him.

I hope you are right. I am afraid metro has drank so much kool-aid that will not happen.
Metro is 2 coaches shy of it's goal. KInda makes you wonder why the other schools are not enjoying the success of the top 4 schools. Maybe that is not the answer! Overton went this route thinking that is the answer to returning to the elite. McGavock probably thinking this way also.

Thomas McDaniel is married to Coach Crawford's wife's daughter. Not surprising to me.

Thats not 4 other schools problem, that couple of y'all keep complaining about. All I know is couple years ago I've seen a loaded Overton team, that probably won 4 games that year.
Not a single coach head or assistant at the 4 schools could do any better at Overton right now.

I am guessing you know this from experience? This counters what was, and is said about him from his two TN coaching stints @ Ravenwood and Notre Dame. Checked in with a parent or two and they seem pleased. I'm told he's got the whole team on the field at 6:45 in the morning for conditioning, and works out with groups of them during the day. Perhaps he does have an ego, what head coach does not, but it appears he has a strong work ethic. Maybe Blackman needed some change and just not the HC.
Best wishes, time will tell.

Metro football is at an all time low. The combined wins and losses for all teams except for top two is 14-36. And the 14 wins are not against another team with a winning record. PC is 5-0 with only one win against a good program. CR is 3-2 with no wins against a good team. Very Sad.
