Polk County Football 2019

This year marks the beginning of a new era at Polk County. Regardless of anyone’s feelings about it; Derrick Davis is out, and Rusty Brewer will be the new head coach. The worry now is; who will be his assistant coaches. I would expect a couple of the staff memebers from last year to stay on and help him. Hopefully the school will let him go get some other coaches. Does anyone know of possible new assistants for Polk this year? 

I know we lost a good batch of seniors but there is still some talent left on this team. We will have a new QB, with some returning  backs and lineman. It will be interesting to see who the new QB will be. Anyone have any clues on that? What about defense? I know D. Davis was the defensive coordinator for several years, who will take over that role? There are a lot of questions for this team for sure. Anyone know anything about spring training? Go Wildcats!

Old news, but a good read all the same. Davis is a good coach and you hate to lose someone like that. It seems this person has been under him for some time though, and should have retained some knowledge from working with him. Look forward to seeing you guys at Meigs this year.

I’ll just say that I am skeptical now. If what I have heard this morning about the staff that is being assembled at PC is true, they are in for a big time drop off from last years staff.

Having watch Meigs play Polk a few times I believe Davis was able to motivate his team to play above their level at times. Definitely was able to pull some try hard out his team. I do believe McMinn Central with him on staff will be a pretty competitive football team within a few years. As far as Polk goes I'm unsure of the guy taking over. I know it means alot having good coordinators under you when you are a coach. Wish you guys good luck.

 I agree with with everything you said here. Good luck to Meigs as well.

Let me ask you a question.  Did they fire that Davis man because of that nappy looking mustache he has? I garuntee you it made me real mad every year I opened my Murphy Fair book and saw that mess.  Im glad I want have to look at that mess this year.  You think im joking but im not.

And they didn't fire him. He resigned Polk is in for a rough patch for sure. Wish Brewer well but not looking good for Polk.

    • Began as a discussion, and evolved into a trainwreck...   Don't know how many of the TC "old guard" are left, but I feel for y'all.   Everybody has to get the last word... no matter the cost and sometimes the cost is high.
    • He may have possibly said that to get the best out of him. Back when I was in school word got out I was going to transfer and Coach Story popped off and ask Coach Wilson in front of the team if Maryville was going to get a jock strap in return on this trade. That got back to me and I got fired up and stayed just to show them up. Now today Coach Story is one of my best friends.
    • Dylan's Dad, I'm glad you replied. I wanted to reply but wasnt willing to take the bait. There were 20 wrestlers on the team. I may be mistaken and correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 5 of the 20 attend McCallie right now and one will next year. At most, there are/were 6 kids on that team who attend McC. That leaves 14 other team members who have ZERO affiliation with McC (outside of maybe some friends) who represented our state to the best of their ability and wrestled their butts off that weekend. That weekend was a first for Tennessee and obviously a small step in the right direction for us as a state. Congratulations TEAM TN BLACK!
    • Danny Wilson is the only one that come's to mind but I don't know where he is at now.
    • I am pro coach all day long but there are some knucklehead hires for sure.
