I'm indifferent. Our weakest link was our D last year by far but that doesn't mean it was bad coaching. I wish Coach Ellis the best at his new job in GA and welcome Coach McCurry to the Eagles Nest.

McCurry will come to the Eagles from Pearl River, Miss., where he has been an assistant coach. He has been a head coach at Ripley, Miss., and at Marshall County and Moore County in Tennessee. He directed Moore County to the 1999 Class 1A state final, where it lost to South Pittsburg

 

 

Actually McCurry left Moore County in 1998. His last team there was picked by Murphy Fair to land in the state championship but was upset in the second round by a Huntland team that Moore County had dusted by more than 20 points earlier in the regular season.

 

Coach Doug Price took over in 99 and led the Raiders to the state title appearance.

 

McCurry did lead the Raiders to a title game back in 88 I believe. They lost a nail biter.

 

Good luck Mac!

Yes you are correct. The Chattanooga newspaper, the above article was taken from had some facts wrong. Mac lead the Raiders to the 1988 title game with DCA and lost 21 to 20 when a 2 point conversion try was inches short. Moore County had played DCA earlier that season in Lynchburg and beat the Wildcats 34 to 20. But it is very hard to beat a team twice in one season. Mac wanted so much to win a State championship but it did not happen. Good Luck Mac and maybe you will get one soon.

It's good to see some well-wishers on here. Haven't gotten to know Mac very well yet, but the guys really like him. He is obviously very knowledgeable, and I like what he is doing with the defense. Hopefully, he won't have to wait long for that championship ring. :thumb:

Mac is Waterboy96. :roflolk:

      I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"

      2024 Mustangs

      By 1983 · Posted

      Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
