tnhsfbfan85 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Like the fork says, your words seem harsh. When did you play at Overton? Did you play for Thigpen? By the way, you are incorrect. He has been a DC. You also left out that he was the DB coach on defense for Overton. CR is not a new school either. Most brand new schools are not loaded with talent because most open with only underclassmen such as freshman and sophomores as CR did about four years ago. I was there in the early 2000s. What did I say that was harsh? I simply stated what he had done at Overton. He does coach DBs but like I said, its still only a position coach. I dont know of anytime in the last 10 years he has been DC and if he was, it didnt last long. Tell me again what i said that was harsh?

runtheball Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 Where has SW coached? What about TT? If the TT you speak of is currently a head coach in another state (and has been a head coach in the midstate in the past) then he is a great fit for this and any other job that he applies for. Both assistant football,neither have been a head coach in football. TT is not Tommy Tharpe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I ask you, who is a better fit a CR in your opinion? What has he done to be a better fit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was gone by then. Why did he not continue in that position? I dont have anyone in mind. Im not even saying he is a bad choice. I would just think they would look for someone who has either been a head coach before or has some consistant sucess as an OC or DC. Urban Meyer went directly from WR coach to head coach so it can be done and done well. I was simple making an observation of the situation.

He was then promoted to HC at a new school. He gave up that position to go to Overton to learn from a Metro icon and be around someone who was successful. Those were his own words by the way. I can also tell you that when CR was open the first time when Abner was hired, Thigpen was a finalist then too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DubbsB Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Either of the two finalists will be a good hire for CR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

workinprogress Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Either of the two finalists will be a good hire for CR. Really can't say finalists anymore. Question is will CR go with second choice, third choice, or open it up again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFork Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Re-open, Think so, I do not. Least resistant path, travel I think they will. Hire, come from within, I now believe. May the fork be with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May the fork be with you. I think the pressure is on them to make sure they get it right. They've already fumbled. They need a score now. What you think, Fork?

What you think, Fork? Sandpiper if the past is any indicator then the fork is correct. CR will continue to fumble this one away and will not score.
