vandyfan13 Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 (edited) It appears that is not going happen. The end result is that in football MJCA is just not very good and never will be until they get some play makers on the team. That has nothing to do with the AD. He may be terrible and only cares about basketball,but that has not hurt football. I do not think that would change even if they played 8 man football. I agree, the AD isn't totally responsible for the lack of athletes at the school. Decisions made above him contribute to that. However, his reputation undoubtedly keeps some kids away too. Hiring assistant coaches has never been high on his priority list either. They usually have a few good skill kids, they just get hurt on the lines traditionally. That's where 8man would benefit them. They might not win state, but I guarantee they'd be consistent winners simply because they'd be one of the deeper teams, with the occasional class (such as the rising freshmen) that could have a title shot.

I heard they were a good team. I even hear that the coach of Freshmen team is a possible candidate to be become new varsity coach. Any truth to that?

NonUTFan Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 I heard they were a good team. I even hear that the coach of Freshmen team is a possible candidate to be become new varsity coach. Any truth to that? The MS team was pretty good this year, although questionable schedule. There is no freshman team or coach. The MS coach is not a certified teacher so he is probably not the guy. Another coach there says that they are trying to hire a big name- Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fb247 Posted March 17, 2014 Report Share Posted March 17, 2014 Any word on who the candidates are? I guess they are busy sorting through all the big name applicants for this job. There are so many that it is taking time to get to the ones they are seriously considering to interview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

workinprogress Posted April 3, 2014 Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 Who is new coach? Any interesting names apply? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
53fan Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 Think there were some descent names but big names to them aren't really BIG names. Think there was some interest because people think it could be a good job, could being key word. Lots of changes need to be made first and that could take years.

workinprogress Posted April 4, 2014 Report Share Posted April 4, 2014 I think you are right that it could be a good job and some applied for that reason. Like you said though could is the key word. I asked about this job myself but was quickly steered to stay put. Too many negatives that out weighed the possibilities of positives. Good luck to whomever is the new coach.
