My point is that I don’t see the athletes standing on the sidelines at Clinton right now. By by the way, all you “guru’s” saying this style of offense doesn’t work at this level, Creasy still runs a ton of WingT at Oakland. I believe the record shows he won the 6A title last year. It's a matter of talent and athletes. Some offensive styles fit some athletes better than others. Cleveland ran the wing t when they won three titles in a row but it frankly wouldn't have mattered what they ran on offense because they had overwhelming talent. From what I've seen of Clinton, the wing t isn't their problem and it isn't a bad offense for their personnel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clinton had good athletes last year and the year previous to that but didn't pull any upsets or beat anybody they shouldn't have beat. They don't have the athletes this year and they aren't performing or executing the offense on a high level at all. You would expect to see improvement in a system offense like the WingT after 3 years. The kids have clearly not bought into him, the offense or his coaching style. and the fact multiple people from schools they have played said the HC and coaches are yelling and screaming at each other mean it's the same with the coaches Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You guys will know better than me if you follow Clinton every week. I saw 1 game and shared what I thought about it on the Halls thread. I know what Randy can do and did with our program. We were a doormat and he built the program, facilities, etc over the years. And it took him longer than 2 1/2 seasons to do it. Good luck to the Dragons and fans. Looks like there’s some coming together that needs to happen. *edit: Bonkers comment was a joke Edited September 22, 2019 by gcapride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opie what I would do is go straight to the coach and ask him what the problems that are keeping Clinton from getting better. I do know he is a decent coach but kind of hard to understand sometimes. I had a nephew that played for him at GCA and I didn't agree with everything he done but I did support him during that time. His personal life put a lot on his plate most coaches could have not come back from and I would have been the last person to give him any more during that very hard time in his life. He is a good X's and O's coach but Clinton may not have the crop of kids coming through to just turn things around overnight. He is a hometown product of Clinton and I'm sure he feels it the worse.

To be totally honest, the job isn't all that attractive. Fire Catlett, pushed Kerr out, fire native son McKamey after only 3 years. Outside looking in, not many coaches want to go to a program with only 3 winning seasons in 20 years and a seemingly dysfunctional administration that fires coaches without going all in to build a program with him.

Questions is does Admin want to be successful? It looks like a strong fan base wants someone in there that can change it around quickly. That can be good and bad. Also, why would Ellison be the Front-Runner? Was he not the interim at one point? Also, Head Coach at Powell for a few years? It seems he was unsuccessful at Powell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
