I do not expect a current head coach, unless their program is not one that wins, will interview for this position. I see potential, but too many variables to leave a school with "W's". I do think you could see names from GIbson Co. HC, he is an alumni, if I'm not mistaken and a few other locals who have coached/ played at OC. In my opinion, you shouldn't go in with that type of mind set. You should want a person who will bring a winning attitude. "You play to win the game ". -Herm Edwards

Amen...it's easier to turn a good coach into a hometown guy than the hometown guy to a good coach.

The Gibson Co. HC will NOT be applying for this job. "Straight From the Source"

The Dyersburg coach in question is not the head guy, but an assistant. Truth be told, I dont know who would want to go OC, hard to win many games in their classification with the players they have. Kendall and Cruce arent great options in my opinion. Dyer Co. didnt make playoffs this year and Cruce was supposed to turn GC around and that has yet to happen. Not suprised by OC wanting an "OC guy", alway had the impression that they wanted to take care of their own, even at the expense of being good.  

 

It all comes back to the amount of talent on the field however.

You are right in that the middle school program has changed for the better. And that is what it takes to accelerate your program. The middles schools are playing teams other than just the other schools in the county. Which raises the level of competition. But at some point it comes down to Jimmy's and Jo's. Not X's and O's. Especially as we draw closer to championship games. Take a 4a qtr final game. Crockett vs Trezevant. Do you think Coach Ward is a better or worse x and o coach than Coach White at Trezevant? I would say that they are fairly even on knowledge of the game. But Trezevant won the game. They were the team that made the least fatal mistakes or played the more whole game on Friday night. It doesn't hurt that they have pretty good personnel as well. When I look at obion, I don't see te personnel that Crockett county has and certainly not the personnel that Trezevant has.

Obion's best personnel in the past few years were recruited players that WERE NOT from obion county. Obion has won 7 games in 3 years without those type players. That's 2.3 wins per year. Most talent goes to UC. They have 2 gold balls in the past 5 years. Likely to add another this year. That makes it hard to lure athletes.

    • A little confused.  What charter/prep schools made it to state in Baseball?  
    • Fortuitously encountering Clint amidst the ambience of Goodyear this morning sparked an impromptu yet intellectually stimulating conversation, wherein we engaged in a rigorous assessment of prospective candidates for the esteemed role of head football coach. Our discourse, characterized by its spontaneity and depth, led to the formulation of astute observations and discerning judgments regarding the suitability of various individuals for this pivotal position. Allow me to elucidate the fruits of our collaborative contemplation: This commentary endeavors to offer a discerning articulation of my subjective viewpoint, emphasizing a conscientious commitment to maintaining impartiality and refraining from any semblance of derogation directed towards individuals.  Those who possess meritorious qualifications for the esteemed head coaching role, delineated without hierarchical precedence, include: Rennard Woodmore, an esteemed alumnus of the Yellow Jackets, presents a magnificent pedigree, having held prominent positions in head coaching capacities across various regions. His pivotal role as a coordinator for teams contending for state championships further enhances his stature in the realm of football leadership. Kyle Gregory, erstwhile adorned in the resplendent gold insignia, though lacking direct head coaching experience, brings to the fore his invaluable insights garnered as a coordinator for esteemed teams, showcasing an acute understanding of the requisites for triumph whilst attired in the esteemed purple and gold regalia. Steven Jackson, whose contributions transcended mere clipboard duties under the tutelage of Kevin Creasy, emerges as an exceptional candidate for Trousdale County. His prior tenure and triumphs as an assistant coach underscore his suitability for the role. The sole drawback lies in his lack of affiliation with Trousdale County as an alumnus. Brandon Eden's extensive tenure within the chronicles of Trousdale County football, spanning a significant portion of its State Championships, coupled with his successful stints as a coordinator across diverse locales, underscores his candidacy despite a dearth of direct head coaching experience at the high school level. Davy Cothron, while beset by a modest playing career, has emerged as a luminary in offensive strategy, drawing parallels to the transformative appointment of Barker in 2015, thereby warranting consideration for his proven acumen in this realm. Joshua Hackett, notwithstanding his non-alumnus status, has left an indelible imprint across Middle Tennessee, distinguished by his adept curation of formidable defensive units as a coordinator at Watertown, albeit without direct head coaching experience. Kevin Creasy, the epitome of coaching prowess, merits an offer irrespective of his current inclinations, his unparalleled capacity to secure victories transcending geographical and institutional bounds, potentially extending to a role as Director of Schools should it align with his aspirations. Conversely, individuals who have not demonstrably earned the mantle of head coaching, enumerated without sequential precedence, encompass: Brad Waggoner David Barker Paul Pitts Jeremy Pruitt Clint Satterfield Robbie Atwood Wesley Satterfield Ben Johnson BJ West Whom do you all deem most fitting to assume the mantle of the next coach, and what rationale informs your choice? Conversely, whom do you perceive as ill-suited for the role, and what underpins your reasoning for their exclusion?
    • He's a Clinton fan.  But I wouldn't admit that either.  
    • Their any schedule out their for team camp?
    • This sums it all up to perfection.
