Absolute best hire you guys could of got. Interviewed him a couple of times at Powell. I was shocked a bigger program didn't give him a shot before now. Mistakes were made at Powell, but I don't think anything intentional happened and he definitely learned from it.

 

Good luck to Dresden and Coach Rang.

We sure hoping for best FreeAgent. Around here it was a big shock that the current asst. didn't get it, Chad Hodge, who had great credentials and record himself, and "99%" of folk wanted him, but looking at Rang's credentials and all, he is only one possible that could have trumped the coach we had and whom we all thought was a shoe-in. And Coach Rang (and others) will soon realize, though 1A class (smaller program), our Dresden Lions can compete with anyone, any class.. hearts of champions who expect to win and are willing to pay the price to do so. .. this attitude thanks to the program built by several of our recent coaches (esp. Hewett & then Hodge brothers). Coach Rang has great stuff to build upon and take us to the next level: an elite, always in hunt for gold ball type team (like his HS alma mater). After the "surprise" of this choice wearing off, methinks the excitement is truly increasing around here as we realize the calibre of coach we did get. Our existing coach was top-tier indeed, and coach Rang seems to be as well. I trust the collective wisdom of decision makers who picked Rang and believe time will prove it will be a great fit for everyone. Big surprises come in small packages (like dominating powerhouse "dynasties" even amongst 1A schools), which that has to start sometime, somewhere, so why not right here, right now at Dresden under Coach Rang, a"young gun" who has potential to be a coaching legend like his mentors.. why not, eh? Again, the foundation laid for him and the raw materials ARE definitely here to accomplish such a rare feat, so I say.. LET'S DO THIS!!! ARRGGG! Let the era of Coach Derek Rang begin! The sky is the limit.. GO LIONS! #1 ALL THE WAY! :) <if we gonna have dreams and ambitions, why not make it the BEST, highest goals possible?>

It is funny how rumors get started.  I have not heard about players not playing if chad doesn't get the job.  I also talked to the qb's dad the other day and point blank asked him if they would move i

Not like Huntindon, you will still be just Dresden. Just another win on on the schedule for teams that play real football.

Exchanged texts with Coach Rang today. I'll have him on the Friday Night Main Event just as I had Coach Hodge numerous times. Last time I spoke to Coach Rang, he holds dear to him the values taught to him by my friend George Quarles. He WILL be a popular guy there if your fan base give him a chance. You'll be surprised at his football IQ and he'll definitely make a believer out of the kids!

The only problem that I see with your post is the part left out...I said earlier that the only reason to be lingering over the choice would be if the administration had a "target" coach that they were waiting for...looks to me like they had one. Rang has to be counted already as one of the best in the west from background alone, the only potential downside being that he isn't a hometown guy, and success breeds bigger offers. No disrespect at all but Rang has inherited the perfect vehicle to land him a top tier job in a short while, provided he wins and keeps his nose clean. Dresden is good enough to be taken up a level by a coach of Rang's caliber already, and frankly, the only reason that he was available was the question of his character...put in a couple of years with no incidents, make some serious noise in postseason, and the chance will be there for him to go bigger/better/closer to home. Embrace the hire, back the team, and enjoy the ride...somewhere in the near future the search may be on again, but the program should be in a great place then too.

I have told them that. Have known him for 3/4 of his life. Good young man and parents and siblings are solid. Good man for the Lions

If Coach Quarles is a mentor to Rang Dresden has a for real winner in him!!!

      Jason Lambert should be the only choice for the Baseball coaching position.

      From the stats I found online it looks like Gabe Eddington- .484, 44 total hits, 43 runs scored and 42 stolen bases.Meanwhile, on the mound, the Austin Peay commit had a record of 8-2, while compiling 50 innings pitched with an ERA of 1.82. Carson Parrott - 7-0 overall as a starting pitcher with a 1.41 ERA, 95 strikeouts and a save in 53 and 1/3 innings pitched. Parrott hit .392 with 3 home runs, 21 RBIs with a .566 OBP and .716 SLG. Jaxon Walker - .454, 53 hits, 38 RBI’s, 9 HRs.   Not saying the other three aren’t deserving but Quillen had better BA than all three and was just as dominate pitching.  Like I said I don’t know how you leave off the 3a Baseball player of the year last year when he put up better numbers.  I know Greeneville’s Coach wasn’t happy about it saying “I don’t give a s*** what anybody else says. That kid is the best player in Tennessee, and everybody else on our team rises to his level“.  I’m sure winning another State Championship as a junior is more important to Carson than the individual award, it’s just a head scratcher to not be nominated

      Plenty of time. The former coach was busy with family and disappeared all summer anyway. Obvious choice has the same family issues. First game is in March 2025.
