Antioch's New Football Coach

[offtackle]

I heard today that Antioch will conclude on Tuesday and announce on Thursday. Bush is definetly the man to beat but dont be suprised if Woodard from Ravenwood gets it. Does Bush stay if this happens? I know alot of coaches that would try to get him.

Why such a long delay to hire a coach?

They shut down the other thread but I have to say I agree with the last 2 posts. It is one thing to bash a coach thats fine, but no business bringing family into it. We all should congratulate McPhail. I would venture that he gave up something that he didnt want to for the betterment of his family. That takes a man.

Nobody was bashing McPhail's son. Apparently he is a decent ball player. My question is this...why does he have to go to Ryan in order for his kid to go there. It has nothing to do with the betterment of his family. I think he did it because with him at the helm, the wheels were about to completely fall of the AHS wagon.

1. McPhail's son is a good middle school student/athlete but who has a clue as to what type of high school player he will be.

2. Who knows if the wheels were about to fall off with the Antioch program? That's easy to say but only time will tell. He could have stayed at Antioch forever; when was the last time a Metro coach was fired for not having a high enough winning %? I have never heard of a Metro coach being fired for not winning!!!! Antioch does not have an alumni association that will raise _ _ _ _ with the school board if they don't win like a county school or private school does. If you want to see things get ugly just watch what happens if one of the big private schools start to go down and not win.

3. Could it be that McPhail wanted to be with his son and teach in a different enviroment?

 

Don't be so quick to jump someone if you don't know the situation.

1. God does

2. I wouldn't say the wheels have been falling off at AHS.

3. The first half of this one - on the money...the second half - He actually WILL teach at Ryan (Coach Lusssier has dibs on the Wt. room. )
