Dresden has a good one in coach Knott. I doubt there will be a big turnaround this season but, in the future, expect to see changes come along. I don't care how good a coach is, usually it will take roughly 4 seasons for him to make a big difference. Dresden must be patient with him though. It could happen quicker and if it does, keep him at all costs!!

Hopefully Dresden will be patient and let Coach Knott do his thing...he learned under one of the best coaches in West TN and he learned quickly what it takes to make a winning program. Community support and players really buying into his philosophy will really go along way to getting the Lions back to their winning ways /thumb[1].gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":thumb:" border="0" alt="thumb[1].gif" />

This entirely true. With Coach Knott this team will make a transformation. Out of all the coaches I played for and worked out under his WERE THE HARDEST to complete. Everyday you worked out with him supervising you learned something about how hard you were willing to push yourself to win at any cost. If his kids believe in his phlosophy they will succeed.

 

Dresden is truly lucky to have acquired this GREAT COACH and Just as Good A man if not better.Hold on to this guy he'll change your team in a few seasons if not earlier. Anyone from Dresden that sees Coach Knott regularly tell him Bruizer Says Hi, he'll know who ya mean.

In my opinion in Dresdaen the problem isnt Coach Knott. He doesnt have a very good cast under him. True you have to have players. But when a program is being known for having the worst coaching in West Tn for the past few years, and all you do is replace the head coach, and keep the other coaches who were on staff already. That doesnt help alot. There is talent in dresden, but if the bag is full of bad apples and you only replace one. The rest of the bag is still bad. I know that the assistant coaches are good guys, but not the best coaches in the world. Take a look at the big picture. To compete in 2a football you better have good players AND several good coaches..Just my two cents. Good luck Dresden and Coach Knott. By the way, he is a very good Coach. Give him time, and check under him instead of blaming him.

I have read that the famous Coach Bear Bryant maintained that after a victory the players deserve credit, and after a loss the coach deserves the blame.

 

After listening to Coach's Corner on the radio Saturday, I don't think Coach Knott agrees. (in my humble opinion)

 

As President Truman always said, "The Buck Stops Here."

 

Coach Knott is in a situation where right now he's not necessarilly getting out coached he just doesn't have the plauers. As for not taking the responsibility for the loss I'm sure he is cause I know he always did at Camden, but coaches can only do so much. I heard that Dresden only has a handful of boys having a bench max of more than 275, and some of those were a QB and reciever.

 

But if the people at Dresden gives Coach Knott time he'll change the program around in a matter of years. Someone said that thaty his Assisstant coaches weren't great well under him they'll change. Coach Knott told me he was a firm beleiver in leading through your actions not your words, so if the fact that the coaches aren't great hopefully they'll follow his footsteps and work together to cahnge Dresden for the better. Good Luck to Dresden on the rest of yalls season, Hopefully its injury free from here on out as well.

There is going to be an adjustment period for everyone involved, players, headcoach, assts., and fans. With that being said, if the assistants are such bad coaches, you(deltafarce) should go offer to be a volunteer asst. I am sure they would love to have you expertise. With hard work and patience, all will work itself out in Dresden. Good luck to them and all the coaches and fans. It is a tough year, but even tougher for some players that have already played their last game for the Lions because of injury.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
