CAK's Schedule

After looking over CAK's schedule, I dont see them losing a regular season game. I am not saying that they won't lose but it looks like their schedule was a whole lot more challanging the first few weeks of the season versus what they have left to play. I know that they have a young defense and that these are still high school girls but it looks like they could play alot of players and get everyone some experience for tournament time.

I would tend to agree with you, but this can be a blessing and a curse at the same time. Complacency can rear its ugly head, and then "boom" you lose in a knockout game and go home 18-1. Maryville might be a tough match, but they are having some up and down scores, so not sure.

 

I would love to see the Lady Warriors go the distance without a loss (or a tie). They came close 3 years ago, but tied 2 teams.

That is where coaching comes into play. Do you keep playing your top 14-15 players and win 6-0 and risk injury or do you play 17-20 players and get everyone experience but risk a loss or lose the chemistry that you already have created. There has to be a happy medium somewhere and that is where the coach earns his/her money.

How did I know that once I put the word "money" in my post that it would come to the topic of CAK paying boat loads of money for their coaches. I have posted on this before when CAK hired Coach Pharr, CAK does not pay their coaches a huge salary. I would say that a 4-5 year teacher at a public school makes more than 95% of the teachers and coaches at CAK. What makes CAK an attractive school for coaches is that some retire from public schools and collect a retirement check from them and a check from CAK. For example, Darden, Young, and Cowan. Another thing is that there are parents at CAK that will donate the money to make sure that the coaches get what they need for their programs. For example, dirt, grass seed, equipment etc.... it has always been that way over there. I will tell you one thing though, no one works harder on improving their facilities than Tommy Pharr. You can ask anyone that has ever played for him. So to make my point, CAK does not write blank checks to get people to come and coach their sports teams.

 

Yes, coaches do get paid but not nearly enought to put up with the parents that are trying to relive their childhood through their kids.

Ha ha! I can PROMISE you that CAK doesn't just throw money around (otherwise I wouldn't have had to cancel my cable, and cut off my home phone to save some money each month). It is a great place to work, with wonderful people and very supportive parents and administration. Money is good, but I can tell you it isn't everything.

Been watching Champions League games the last couple of days on Fox Soccer Channel with Dish Network. Don't know if it is a free trial (just showed up a few days ago) or a basic channel now, but loving it. Watched a couple of games on the computer last season (for free)...might try that.

I got to see the Man U Tottenahm game (they play them on ESPN now, and my cable runs out this month) and Defoe's bicycle kick goal in the first minute was one of the sickest goals I have seen in a while. I will miss watching, but there are more important things in life.

    • 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.
