LOL I noticed my son was not mentioned as one of the very fine young men.

I didn't mention half the kids I usually mention! I said ect.. If that's not good enough for you so be it!

If you were at the games this year, you would know who is " your" sons biggest fan from the sideline! Just ask him who screams for him! as long as he knows how I feel about him then I'm ok!

Bottom line on the coaching deal is in my opinion :WE ALL HAVE OUR OWN OPINIONS OF THE HOWS & WHYS. I've stayed quiet an read all your posts. I agree with some ,laugh at some,&I disagree with some. The bottom line for me is this :our community is loaded with folks who would love to HELP do more for our sports teams.

When I played here,it seemed there was a great deal of support. We had a thriving QB Club. Fans filled the stands,we worked our tails off & as a result we were the FIRST TEAM to go to the playoffs. The following year,which was my senior year,we returned. With that being said WE HAD 6 COACHES ...BUT ONLY A 25 MAN ROSTER . THAT WAS IN 89.

Fast forward to 2010..I brought my son to play for my Alma Matta. He was pumped & I was filled with pride. As I introduced myself to his Head Coach, we chewed the fat for a second & then got to the EXPECTATIONS. Coming from a system where TEAM CONCEPTS were displayed by how many GD MF's you had to be from coaches or players,before being ACCEPTED, I WAS DEAD SERIOUS ON TRYING TO SHOW MY SON ' REAL COACHES/MENTORS''. IT WASN'T AS MUCH EMPHASIS ON WINS & LOSSES.

My son became eligible after a few weeks & has started since then. Did my son get the same coaching he might've gotten at a CPA or better yet MBA? (where he could've gone in 7th grade) Could things have been done 'BETTER'? Had we had 10-12 Coaches would things have been different? THE ANSWER TO THESE QUESTIONS ASKED FOR ME IS I DON'T KNOW.

What I do know is this :MY SON WORE #45 AS A PROUD VERSATILE FOOTBALL PLAYER. HE GOT THE CHANCE TO BATTLE WITH GUYS HE'D PLAYED AGAINST ALL HIS PEEWEE CAREER. HE 'LOVES' HIS COACHES & THE BROTHERS THAT HE WENT TO BATTLE WITH. THEY MADE HISTORY TOGETHER ...FOR EACH OTHER! We can all speculate on lots of things, but one thing is for sure :THIS WAS A SPECIAL GROUP OF GUYS & THEY COULD'VE MADE DOOLEY LOOK GOOD.

Now I have read some statements made on here I personally agree with & some ....well ..just made me laugh at the senselessness. Bottom line IT IS WHAT IT IS:1 folks question the loyalty of the Head coach,"he's put applications in for SEVERAL YEARS at other schools" 2 folks question why there's NO SUPPORT FROM THE COMMUNITY & some suggest "cause our coach is a recluse,with no people skills" 3 folks have stated "lots of talent has been RUN OFF"

I PERSONALLY can't answer those questions. However I know this for sure: MY SON HAS ALOT OF RESPECT FOR HIS COACHES ...& I'll LEAVE IT AT THAT

Shadow I understand what your saying.. Understand though! It's no secret to all of us close to this program that Potts ( who is the best player I have ever seen) is not a passer! He will tell you same thing , but he was closes thing we had to a passing QB so he was put there! I have so much respect for him and his parents.. I would of blown a gasket if they moved him from running back to QB, but they didnt! That's why Potts is the ultimate player, he didnt complain, he did what he could to help the team! I love that kid!!

 

I suppose what I am trying to do is distance myself from the position that states the cc coaches were outcoached. It never occured to me to blame anyone for this loss. I feel like I had been unfairly thrust into a camp in which I don't belong.

Thk you shadow for all your post!! I think most of this coaches discussion is between just a small group of people.. I hope they can get together and settle there problems.... I'm not discussing it anymore.. I don't know how you start on a group of coaches that has went 12 an 1.. Not to mention all the records alone the line.. I just read a few things in the last post , I agree with some, but I disagree with some also.. Here is my take on some of it! I don't know if all this is true now , and some if its speculation so don't quote me! Out of all the counties that touch Cheatham were the only county that doesn't have a weight lifting class,( whats that matter? well if your kids work that means the head coach has to be there all the time to make sure your kids have s chance to lift)our coaches get 1500 hundred dollar supplement for two coaches, they now expect our coach to drive all over the state and the gas he uses should come out of the supplement( are you serious), our coach is expected to teach 6 classes or more a day( which I don't think matters to him, but he sure gets no appreciation ) our coach is at the field house 7 days a week at whatever time you want,( I have been there at 5 in morn, I have been there 5 at night, he is always there, keep in mind 1500 dollars) he gets no support from our school board( I won't go there again) they say he has ran off some great players( that may be true, but I would bet that 95 percent didn't won't to play anyways), then I herd this" he cussed at practice"( that one is sad! They tried to write him up or worse for saying a cuss word at practice, how many practices you ever seen where you didn't hear a coach cus?) on the eve of the biggest game ever in the schools history our coaches get to work, go to there mail boxes and you know what's there? A letter saying none of the football players are too be out of class today. ( are you serious? Really? ) ! Now is all this 100 percent accurate? Maybe not! Is most of it accurate? Yes I know for fact! So you read all this, see what the coaches deal with, how they are paid, compare it to every other county school.. I think what they have done is nothing short of phenomenal!

Wow Howdo you really slammed me there. I have read your post all year and really thought you were a good person. I meant absolutely no disrespect to our coaches. They have done an outstanding job. Coaches get out coached every day in all level's of the game. As far as compliments go I was one of the first people there when the team broke from their post game huddle. Coach Finley was walking away and to me appeared to be sad about the way the game went. I walked up and gave him a big hug and told him we loved him!!! Our coaches are great people, coaches and mentors as well. I HAVE NOTHING BUT RESPECT FOR EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM !!!! Sorry you feel the way you do, It was not my intention to belittle anyone. It is pretty sad that a simple post can turn into something this crappy !!

 

To all on this thread, I was merely stating my heartfelt feelings I meant no disrespect to anyone!

 

On little happier note: Slim88 yes #87 Brady Bose is my son and we are very proud of him as we are all of CUBNATION. We have had quite a few University's interested in him. He has made a couple of visits but nothing official. We just got him signed up with the NCAA so he should get some serious looks now.

I agree the coaches are underappreciated. I have posted as much.

[coachrus]

haha. we very well couldve been but cheatham literally only had to call about 4 plays that game. They just ran it down our throats. literally averaged about 7 yards per rush.
