Question for the Oakland folks...

[rhshasbeen66]

grew up in west tennessee, believe he played college ball somewhere. was a DBs coach at riverdale from 2000-2005. went to BGA in 2006 as a defensive coordinator. took a head coaching job at moore county in 2007, taking them from a 1 or 2 win team to a 7 win playoff team in one short year.

 

he's in his late 20s i believe, the players will love him and go to war with him. a very intense coach on the field, very professional off the field. expert on fitness and the best teaching position for him at oakland would be in the weight room.

 

 

coach mac played football in college at tennessee tech. i was at riverdale as a player for his first two years there and loved being around him, although he wasn't my position coach. he is EXTREMELY energetic and knows how to get all of the players on a team motivated. but, off the field, he is as personable a guy as you'll ever see or want to meet. i got to talk to him this weekend for the first time in years and i really hope that oakland lucks out and gets him because if so he will take them far!

I am not talking bad about Coach Macdaniel but it should take more than just 1 year of being a head coach in lower class level playing Moore County. What happened to the bigger name coaches, With more experience? Did they all turn Oakland down? If Coach Mac is the coach, good luck because this county 's level of play can not be compared to that of the region of Moore County.

 

 

A couple of the finalists withdrew...JJ from Cookeville and Perry from MJ...I believe McDaniel can turn it around, but it will take some patience on the part of the fans and community.

i feel exactly the same way. great coach, great teacher in the classroom. he takes his profession seriously but is very down to earth.

 

his brother was a freshman coach at riverdale a few years ago also, dont know if he has been coaching since mac left for BGA and moore county but i wouldnt be suprised to see him on staff at oakland.

Guys, don't know if this is true but T-Mac is who I was talking about a few pages back. I played under him and he is a master motivator. He is very blunt with players and tells them what they need to hear. Great in the weight room. VERY organized, professional off the field and intense as they come on the field. Can't say enough about the guy, he turns boys into MEN.

 

Honestly, I thought it was just a matter of time before he took a more high profile job then Moore Co. His work there certainly speaks for itself. He knows this region, as he was assistant at Riverdale for 5 years under Rankin. Congrats to Coach Mac!!

Rumor is that hes taking the whole staff of white and gardner with him and possibly snow.

i was thinking white would stay at MC, try to hop in as the head coach there. i know he lived in that area, even while working at riverdale, so he was taking a job closer to home than murfreesboro. plus his wife is the head girls basketball coach at the school aswell.

 

was snow also at MC? i thought he was still at eagleville, but saw him at the blackman/smyrna game this year at random so i had no idea where he was at now.

Has the new coach been named or is this still rumor/speculation?
