Next Giles County Coach?

[pigskin4life]

What about Palmer at Fayetteville? May be too honest for the Giles County faithful. Thomas from Lincoln County? What about the old D coordinator under O'Connor? I am sure he remembers how to run an indoor practice in the months of January, Februaryand March. May even have a couple of those MCHS numbers that they used to call...lol

Does anyone remember how well Palmer's Fayetteville bunch played us this year during preseason scrimmage??? He brought a 1A group over here and hung with us. If I was in charge I would get boosters together and put a package in place that would set him up well enough to make him step away from his hometown team! I know he is older, but money talks and he could put a couple of years in and build a proven winner. He started Fayetteville from scratch and had a successful season this year. Somebody needs to give him a call quickly before it's too late!

I'm telling you it would be a good hire. Very hard working and honest coach. Loves the kids but works their rear ends off. He also had success at Fayetteville with very little help. But again I am not sure these are qualities that the fans that post on here are looking for.

Some of the best coaches will tell you that a head coach is only as good as his assistant coaches. As long as he is allowed to bring in a couple of guys he knows I believe it would be an awesome hire! There are two problems with Palmer: 1) he is at the end of his career and 2) he is at his home town team

Both of these problems will most likely keep him from coming, but why not try?!?! Although he may be a little older he has a ton of knowledge! The best way to hire a good coach is to create a large budget. This program needs someone who will work hard  and make these players great! If I knew the right people I would persuade them to at least reach out to Coach Palmer. Never hurts to ask

There is a guy in West Tn that has almost 300 career wins, won over 75% of the games he's coached, and has been to 5 state title games that is now on the market. No spring chicken but he says he plans to coach many more years and is willing to relocate. Mickey Marley. Giles should make the call.

No brainer.

Hey guys. Calm down. We can't even interview most of our applicants until after new years. They still have bowl games to coach.

Kriesky brought a 2A team to the table and beat you. Not to mention he destroyed Palmer's Fayetteville team two years in a row as a D coordinator and head coach, with lesser athletes. Just throwing that out there.

Do you think he will get an interview?

I don't even know if he has applied or would want it, but if that's the case, I can't imagine them not giving him a look. He has a ring as an assistant at Oakland, so it's not like he's unfamiliar with the big school football.

Agree. Would be a very good hire as well.

Lots of good names a floating around. I'll go with Coach Scott Blair. Local hometown boy, great family, and a excellent role model. Add an O- Coordinator, A D guy, and a strength & conditioning man and lets go....  â€‹

Didn't Blair leave the OC staff because he didn't like all the work?
