Milan 2019


Recommended Posts

I have a friend that is close to the Milan program and I came over and watched this past Friday night as they beat Lexington.  21 - 15.  Milan won that game in spite of their head coach.  He is severely  lacking in football basics.  The man needs a coaching 101 clinic.  He accepts penalties when he should decline and vice versa.  His clock management is terrible.  I don't know if he lacks basic arithmetic skills or is just unaware, but there is a problem.  At the end of Friday's game with possession of the ball and lexington out of timeouts and 1:24  left on the clock he decided to put the quaterback in the shotgun and run a qb keeper right up the middle.  In this situation there are about 10 or more things that can go wrong and only one good outcome.  Why would you take a chance when you can snap, kneel and run the clock out?  Luckily on 2nd down he came to his senses and they kneeled the ball out and took the win.  

 

The Milan team has a lot of talented kids.  Saw some really good things from #'s 1, 9, 50, 54.  Great looking athletic kids.  #7 their kicker has a great foot and any school in the state would be lucky to have him.  I hate it for the kids that their coach is inept but wish the team luck all the same.

    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
