MidTennFootball Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Someone that understands you build the program from the ground up. I don't think Siegel will lack in getting interest from qualified candidates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Find a coach down in the lower classifications that has had great success that is willing to step up to 6A ball. This is exactly what Oakland did when they got Creasy from Trousdale County where I believe he had two state championships under his belt.

422PT Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 They might want to start by looking in Tennessee instead of Kentucky. They need someone familiar with the culture of Rutherford County. Lots of things to overcome to fix this one. It could take a little time. Starts with admin... nothing else matters if they don't commit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Creasy is no doubt a great coach , but McDaniel laid the groundwork for Oakland to have staying power as an elite program for a long time.

Copley had coached on some really good Centennial teams, so he wasn't a newcomer to the area. Everything I've seen and heard about the administration leads me to believe that they are committed to fielding a winning program Edited November 5, 2019 by MidTennFootball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why are they down to 30 kids? Siegel was already pretty bad before Copley took over. He ran a pretty tight ship from what I hear so sure that thinned their numbers as well. Their mbers were pretty low all 3 years from what I remember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uofl Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 They are going to have to upgrade facilities as well. Not saying they are bad but with Blackman getting new field, riverdale new field house and weight room, Oakland has an indoor facility. Rock vale everything new. What does Siegel have. End of the day you have to draw kids to your school. N not having a winning record since 2013 is not going do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said it over and over; besides leadership, Siegel's biggest problem is the big red monster 3 miles away. When a nearby school has a indoor facility, nice weight room, jumbtron & field turf to go along with tradition, you have to get the right guy, change the culture and get everyone to buy into a grassroots effort. How many elite players at Siegel have moved across Memorial just to go to Oakland? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
