WestVol Posted December 25, 2019 Report Share Posted December 25, 2019 That's true, I would assume they'd move asap. I'd like to think they'd favor Martin over Lake County. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Puckett is hired as the coach and they don’t make a full move of residence to the Westview district in weakley co schools he will have to sit out a year per tssaa rules. I think there may be a loophole there for the son. Not quoting TSSAA, but I think there's a clause that allows players to transfer if a parent is hired... maybe within a time period?

Yes, it's a very tough district, but if given a few years to work the boys in the weight room, I think he'd get Westview back on track. He'd also be bringing his son with him as well, that would be another much needed target for Simpson. I think the Puckett kid will be either a sophomore or junior and could really compliment the QB and his spread offense. I think if Puckett is interested in the job they need to make it happen. Cayden Puckett is also a pretty good QB in his own right. The one time that he and Simpson faced off was their 8th grade year during the middle school playoffs for the TMSAA west sectionals and Puckett had a vastly better game between the two, along with a convincing win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson had a broken throwing arm and a first year head coach, not hardly a fair comparison. I know he is a great athlete, but no way he would beat Simpson out at QB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry bud. Lake County has so much more tradition than Westview. Westview is not winning any titles. Lake County is in the playoffs every year and a person can built a powerhouse at LC. Not a Westview. Westview has so much more politics to deal with than Westview. Puckett has built a great program at LC and at Westview a 6 and 4 season is good season. At Lake County you can go deep in the playoffs just about every year not so much at Westview. Little Puckett is a quarterback and a very good one. Westview has Simpson at qb and it would never work. Just my 2 cents on the subject. Plus Coach Puckett loves Lake County and Lake County feels the same about him. Check Lake County's history then check Westview and get back to me. Plus I would take Cayden Puckett over Simpson at qb anyday for high school football and I don't care how many stars Simpson has by his name.

lakecounty1968 Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 Lake County is a better football job than Westview. Any shape or form you want to look at. Lake County is just the better football job. Plus Coach Puckett is also the head baseball coach. Westview looking for one of those to? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you guys would take him at Camden. Aren't Milan and Peabody really close to Westview? He'd really excel at those two places I know. It is apparent that with Westview being a worse job than Camden, Milan, Lake County, etc. that it may just be one of those places where making the state playoffs is a tremendous victory. It doesn't seem like it's as attractive of a job as many would believe at first glance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lakecounty1968 Posted December 27, 2019 Report Share Posted December 27, 2019 Another thing to consider about Coach Puckett is at Lake County he has the final say so on football and baseball related matters. At Westview I don't think he would have that control. Coach Puckett may very well end up at Westview but I highly doubt it. At LC he can win just about every year at Westview not so much. Just look at the region they play in. Lake County will pretty always be in the mix in 1A. Westview can't say that in 3A. Look at Westview since Cody left. It's been mediocre at best. LC fielded very good to decent teams during that same stretch. I also believe it is Caydens time to be the man at qb.UTM Simpson will never let that happen. There is more to the story on McConnell leaving after 1 year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
