Brentwood Head Football Coach Position

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.

Here's somethin that's not debatable: TC 52 Macon 27

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.

I'm not so sure the Colt's could have scored on Alabama this year. :)

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.

Pemberton was not the first choice.

    • 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.
