MBA vs MUS

[KWoodroof]

This team is McGugin's best work. His first team he inheritied from Rutledge, and realistically should have won the state title with any member of the faculty standing on the sidelines. Last year's team returned a fair amount of talent, and should have done at least as well as they did. But this one really had very little to suggest a state championship appearance, certainly not after the injuries to Colbert and Griscom. This team owes a great deal of its success to coaching.

 

Regarding "luck," the problem on Thursday is that MUS is just as "lucky." One thing that I believe helped MBA was the move from East to Simonis at QB. No knock on East, but Simonis is very talented, and Ensworth had to deal with him with no real film to go on. BA had one game film to view. MUS has two games to look at; not a great body of work, but enough footage to start recognizing some tendencies.

Just a hypothetical question: IF MBA wins and McGugin is the DII coach of the year do you think the University of Ensworth will try and hire him?

I'm sure he is on Ricky's list for new asst. coaches.

There is no way McGugin would leave MBA. You can only have so much coaching talent at one school until the coaches start having problems with each other.

Sounds like the mid '60's Southwest Conference Theory as practiced by Darrell Royal and Bill Yoeman (at Houston, an independent at the time, but in the same neighborhood geographically and philosophically). They would have 200 players on scholarship, recognizing that there was no way they could ever use all of them, but also understanding they'd never risk playing against them either.
