Truly there is a little culture shock coming from Brentwood HS to Cleveland. The student population and per-capita income are pretty opposite. Brentwood boosters are strong and able to provide most any need with a phone call. Such is not the case in Cleveland. Had to be an unexpected frustration for Crawford.

IT'S LIKE GOING FROM THE OUT HOUSE TO THE PENTHOUSE  :mrgreen:

Money drives the machine, though...and if your head coach has to spend as much time scrambling over fundraising and wondering where he's going to get money for equipment and other basics, it can be a drain on him and the staff.

 

Cleveland hasn't won a football championship in a very long time.  Things are different now than when there were only two schools in the county and you could easily support one, the other, or both... Money (or the concerns about it) can often be at the root of a team's struggles.

 

Strong fan and booster support drives good programs...  Cleveland has had neither for a while.  Which comes first, the chicken or the egg?  Personally, I believe that restoring a winning tradition will bring the fans and the dollars back.  But with annual concerns over supplies, equipment, and facilities, any head coach/coaching staff will have lowered morale and will be distracted from their primary job:  coaching

    • The sandbagging begins… y’all made sure LV won’t be a problem by snagging 2 of their better players. 
    • Partin left? I’ll be.
    • And yes, in 2010 Clary/Scott Monger got into it with a R’dale fan. Well, mostly Monger lol. I think the fan took a swing at him. It’s funny as all get out listening to it on the replay. Scott told the guy to sit his a** down. Lol. That wasn’t the only time SM got into it with an opposing team. Seems like he got into it with someone at William Blount one year. He was an OG lol
    • Nope, they knew lol. He was just one tough hombre. Played right up to near the end of the Powell game like that and we almost won. I think they beat us, 21-17. Was a valiant effort on his part though.
    • No, that was in 2010. We played them in the quarterfinals in ‘11 the year I’m talking about, but we got hammered 35-14. 2010 was a fun year though. Played Maryville in the semis and gave them a really tough game for the majority of that game, but their depth eventually wore OR down, 38-21. Bradley had a few awesome runs in that game. He was a stud. Nothing fancy, but like I said, a mini Tebow. Would keep that read option up the middle and pound that tater in there. He was hard to bring down. Probably went for 195 lbs, if that.
