I personally have been really hesitant to post anything about this situation. I live in the area, and I have nothing but respect for Milan football. They really are a blue chip football town. They are

The loser here is Milan. Gave the guy an opportunity and get no appreciation, credit whatsoever. Make a change and get accused of what they certainly proved was not the case. Milan was 6-6 and several

Go watch a Milan game from the last 2 years, it'll make complete sense then. You don't get time when you go 6-6 with the talent Milan had

Lol. Yes they are. You must have talked to Reitz. 

Maybe from the other end too. I was aiming to ask about him last night from someone I trust, and got "beat to the punch"... just asked if I recognized the name and grinned. Short conversation later, and he thinks your guy and the DC are in, and he's high on the potential at Milan. No way his information came from here, your guy is probably using his contacts to feel out your program.

In no particular order names I have heard mentioned:

Smith

Woolf

Ward

McConnell

Rang

Vowell

A few more just to get people thinking/talking:

Gaddis

Swenson

Morris(could he be coaxed out of retirement?)

Woods

Did I miss any?

If Morris will come back then get him! Is he interested? If Rang is interested, I'd interview him and put him on a short list for sure. He's worth a call and I'd call him soon to let him know you're interested.  Not sure Swenson would leave but he's worth a call for sure!  The long shot and this may be farfetched is Gaddis. If I could get him I would. He's a tone setter and completely changes the culture immediately. He did that here in Trenton even though it was only one short year. He creates a certain mindset and kids love playing for him. I have friends in Paris who have witnessed this as well. The success here in Trenton and the current success in Henry County both started with him and it's not a coincidence. I wasn't happy when he left but I love what he did when he was here.  He has done this everywhere he has been. He's had success in West TN, Middle TN, and East TN. The guy has over 300 wins and is in the Hall of Fame. Maybe he doesn't want to move again and maybe he doesn't want to coach much longer but I'd call him today and find out. Start with Morris and if he says no, then go to Gaddis. If he says no, I'd have to call Rang. Everyone will have an opinion and this is mine.

Wouldn’t blame him at all. There are some negatives but they are far outweighed by the positives.

      One school has said it, it was York…who Oneida and many school that played them before we did claimed that they were the dirtiest bunch they’ve played. Riverside didn’t call us dirty nor did smith after they beat us. Ur only dirty if your the one giving out the whoopins.

      If it was anyone but #8 I would agree with you. Theirs a couple people on that team that probably would. Not him. And I who was standing on the 1st base line fence saw clearly that the boys foot was covering more than half the bag.

      Clinton names new OC

      By HTV · Posted

      I'm not a Powell grad.  I am a Bearden grad.   My son and daughter are Powell grads.   I did radio play by play for Powell, my last year was 2013. I also did radio play by play for South Doyle, and my last gig was at Maryville before I retired.   My oldest grandson plays in the Karns Middle program, so I see more Karns games than I do Powell these days.  I've been to 3 Powell games since 2013.   I don't have any ties to Powell, haven't since 2013.   No "y'all" there.    And the kid you are talking about does have a very good arm, but he's not the QB that Deuce Rogers is.  Rogers is a legit dual threat guy.  The younger kid now at Clinton, or about to be at Clinton, isn't the dual threat that Rogers is.
