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.

    • Why would the tax payers be responsible for paying for only a coach? In recent years with all the theft from various programs in schools from different programs with booster clubs (not just sports) the State of TN has made alot of rules surrounding booster clubs and how they handle money.  I have two documents to review, 1 is 40 pages from the state comptroller and the other is 37 pages from my district, so I can consider starting a booster club for my middle school program. It has been too much trouble in the past for the other coaches.  There is no way there needs to be an adult in the school building for 7 hours a day with no responsibilities except coaching. 
    • The only thing that was said at half time of the 45-0 game was Coach Story, he said: "I know y'all have been out there a lot, but kick-off team, y'all need to get down there faster!" Then he and the other coaches proceeded to go into the coaches office and we all went nuts!  It was the only time I can ever remember coaches not saying anything at half time. Definitely a great memory!!!
    • Boyd could actually be a grade below what he is now, but his parents didn't see the need to "redshirt" him like the other city school down the road would have pushed for....
