TennesseeSportsMan Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 (edited) Macon's QB was the best athlete on the field, and they're receiver was possibly the second best athlete. Macon had athlete's and could score on just about anybody, but they couldn't and wouldn't play defense. Creasy did more with less. Pemberton did very little with a little more talent. I do not think I could disagree with this statement anymore than I do. Trousdale had at least 5 players who were better individual athletes than anybody Macon had. I seen Macon play 10x and Trousdale 4x, and I came away with that impression every time. Edited March 2, 2012 by TennesseeSportsMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's somethin that's not debatable: TC 52 Macon 27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyHumbleOpinion Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Actually that is still debatable. If Alabama's team from this year played the Colts from this year, they would get demolished. Does that mean that Jim Caldwell is a better coach than Nick Saban? Absolutely not. You can't compare coaches based on the score of a game if the coaches are dealing with two very different talent levels of players. Now I doubt the talent difference between Macon and TC equals the talent difference between an NCAA team and an NFL team; but you get the picture.

BackinTN Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 In lieu of anything official to come from BHS, a Macon County thread post states that Pemberton turned in he resignation at Macon County today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BackinTN Posted March 5, 2012 Report Share Posted March 5, 2012 It's official... http://www.brentwoodhomepage.com/breaking-news-pemberton-to-lead-bhs-football-program-cms-8079 Good article. Sounds like a strong coach. Macon has been a tough gig for a number of years and has underachieved. Getting them to the playoffs is a feat and tells more of a story than Pemberton's 15-15 record over the last three years. Solid hire. Congrats and good luck to Brentwood.

Gambler Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Good article. Sounds like a strong coach. Macon has been a tough gig for a number of years and has underachieved. Getting them to the playoffs is a feat and tells more of a story than Pemberton's 15-15 record over the last three years. Solid hire. Congrats and good luck to Brentwood. I am sorry but I have to disagree. This hire puzzles me. Obviously the guy knows alot of football and has experience as a head coach in alot of different areas. However Brentwood being one of the top jobs in the midstate and state in my opinion hires a journeyman. Now Pemberton might win 3 state titles in a row I dont have a dog in the fight and wish him the best of luck seriously. Can anyone say who the other finalists are/were? I am surprised they did not look at many of the up and coming coaches in the Nashville/middle tennessee area. Was no one on staff a good choice? Either way the hire surprises me but good luck and from the outside this may be puzzling but on the inside maybe they made the right call only time will tell.
