Brentwood HC

My gut tells me WAY to much parental involvement.  This is not the MO of Coach Sig or the administration, they are typically somewhat patient and have years and years of experience.  These overly involved parents come out of these youth leagues, in this case the Blaze, where they have a lot of control and just can't step back once their kids get into middle and high school.  It's actually a sad situation if you take a step back and look at it not only from the fact that they have gotten rid of a good man/coach but come on, get a life! 

 

On the other side of the coin I think Brentwood is in pretty good shape in that the talent is improving and the district realignment will remove a lot of teams with more talent so they won't have to compete with Ravenwood, Franklin or the most of the Rutherford schools.  If Coach Crawford isn't happy in East Tennessee I could see a scenario of him coming back, but I could see them making a run at an alumnus or two, i.e. Hester or Whittemore.

Don't think Hester would leave. Whittemore is someone that I thought about for the job.

Ravenwood's current enrollment puts them in the top 32.  The new school in Nolensville opens in 2016 and will take a bite out of their numbers.  Hester might take that into consideration if Brentwood calls.

I don't think he would leave either but with the district realignment, up coming talent and most of all, the fact that BHS administration is a much more athletic friendly group, I wouldn't be shocked or really blame him.  He probably has gone a long way in changing the attitude towards athletics at RHS but I can't really say.  However, it wouldn't surprise me if they hire someone while his team is still playing this year.

BHS admin athletic friendly, really? In recent years they got rid of the baseball coach that brought so much success to the program. Wonder what he thought. Wonder what Woodward thinks. How can you say athletically friendly after they do this to Woodward. I think they already have a coach. I may be wrong but why else would you not give a coach more time.

I agree they may already have a coach.  What they did to Coach Waggoner is very similar to this situation, folding to parents.  What I meant by being more athletic friendly than RHS is that they think sports play an important role in the school community, pretty sure Dr. Vaden doesn't believe this as much.

Bad move by Brentwood administration... Though Pemberton drew up the schedule, both Keidel and Seig would have had to sign off on it. Woodward was the scape goat for the mess that the administration created with the initial hiring of Pemberton. The program Woodward inherited was a complete disaster, not sure Saban wins more than 3 games with that team and that schedule.

Brentwood just set their program back another 5 years.  Woodward had them going in the right direction.  Now the middle school and high school are going to have to learn a new system, which is not good for the ones affected the most, THE KIDS.  Woodward is an excellent coach, and when he catches on at his next school, they are going to kick Brentwood's butts.

    • 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.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
