Hal Lamb from Calhoun, Antonio Bradford from TSU, and Marty Wheeler from Covington just to name a few. I think it's going to come down to whether or not they want to hire a big-time name or not.

I honestly thought McConnell would stay at least through this year because we have the peices to get it done if they are managed correctly. I know every one is worried about losing our three super stars, but in my opinion, I think them being gone, it might actually make us better, because instead of everything being focused around those three individuals, now we have to function as a complete team where it's gone take everyone doing there part for us to be successful. I think with everyone being a lot more heavily involved, it might just be what we need to get over that hump. This is not to take anything away from those 3, because they definitely earned what they got and I love all 3 of them dearly! I just feel there where several others that wasn't utilized more, that could have made big contributions as well, that's all. Let me make it clear for you, respectfully, No way Waverly is as good without the 3 headed monster. No way to replace 3 Mr. Football candidates at the 2A level and be as good. What everyone should focus on is what does Waverly have following them up? What level are the 8th graders coming over? 7th graders? Does McCloud from the Middle School have a chance at this job?

I understand what I said may sound preposterous and make me look like I don't know anything about football, but that's from the outside looking in. I'm not saying we are going to be blowing people out of the water and winning games by 30 and and 40 and points as we have the last few years, putting up 50 60 points a game, no not at all! What I do believe we will see is us grinding it out on offense and holding our own on defense. I think we will the scores will be much closer this year, with Waverly pulling off the hard fought victories. There was a ton of talent on the team that wasn't fully utilized because so much of what we did was built around the 3 headed monster, that's all. I think this senior class coming up is going to really shine and surprise a lot of people is all I'm saying. Like I said in another post, I'm not saying they are getting a gold ball or anything, but I do believe they will do a lot better than everyone expects because we lost the 3. The upcoming 8th graders are a great group of kids, they've been undefeated the last two years, and as far as McCould is concerned, I'm not an insider so I can't speak on it, but I am friends with him personally, and he's always given me the impression that he doesn't really want the job. I think he likes where he's at, but that's just my opinion, never heard him say either way. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe East Robertson will have a QB in 2019 who has started the 2016, 2017, and 2018 seasons. They’ll also have a receiver/defensive back who was an All State player as a freshman in 2018. It will be an attractive job because they have players and they have adequate facilities as well. Coach Chatman would be a great man to work for also. You couldn’t meet a more “down to earth” human being. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not doubt any of what you are saying is true, but it makes you wonder why their previous coach resigned for a coordinator role? Though I do understand it is in a higher classification. Is this not a lateral move for the previous coach?? More money maybe??? Edited January 22, 2019 by H2Oman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to ask a couple of questions, what is the ceiling for east robertson? Sure they have a couple great players but are they region champion material? probably not, will going to Gallatin(for sure more money) and being the DC and helping turn Gallatin around in 3-5 yrs maybe make a run deep in the playoffs, and then you get a 5A/6A job making even more money, And as a coach you want to do what’s best for your career and I believe he thinks he did that by taking the DC job at Gallatin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimb1972 Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 I am sure he did, but the WAVE have numerous problems! Biggest being they will go 6A in two years, barring a TSSAA screwup, which is due! Can't win in 5A, will not in 6A! Doubt he will be there long, as his defense at East was porous at best. Gallatin being Gallatin! GO JACKETS! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
