Who will be new MTCS coach?

[CoffeeBreak]

Pretty good resume, sounds like a great hire....

 

I wonder what the students thought of the first meeting.

 

 

I spoke with a few of the players and they were favorably impressed with the initial meeting yesterday.

An excellent sign that your program is up and coming is when the crying and the bitterness starts. You gotta like this MTCS.

Seems like a good hire, didn't see much about his coaching experience, mostly playing, other than assistant at BA and coaching offensive line. Has he been a coordinator of either side of the ball? I know he has been around some great coaches in the past with college and high school. Sounds like he is a great guy that the players will like.

He works hard. He has been the JV head coach and runs the offense of the middle school team. Very good motivator. Kids will do anything for him.

I have two sons at Brentwood Academy that have had (one currently has) Coach Peden as a teacher. They have both played for him. He leads a Bible study every Wednesday night at his home for the senior boys at his home. I will tell you from the bottom of my heart that your administration "hit the ball out of the park!" What a huge loss for us and a great gain for MTCS. I am happy for Coach Peden and MTCS. It will take us a couple of weeks to get over it at Brentwood Academy, but then I am sure we will all become MTCS Fans.

 

good post

What kind of offense and defense will he be bringing to MTCS? Will there be any coaches brought with him?

Rumor is to stay-tuned on coaches. As for system -- he told the boys he needed to see the personnel before he decided on a system.
