I'll second that. Jeff did a remarkable job with the defense down the stretch into the playoff run. He didn't have any D-1s but got the most out of the players on the field and adjusted to some injuri

IMO, when OP asks for assistants who've never been a HC, I take that to mean varsity. Only the most hardcore fans can tell you anything about their jv teams

Trousdale fans are very hard core. We do not have freshmen teams like bigger schools so whoever heads up the Jr high team has to have them ready . Jackson was perfect for the job. He also coached Varsity.

Josh Jones- OC at Powell

Jury is still out but for the time, I'll throw his name in the conversation. Loaded with young recruited talent across the board, but underachieved this year. 

Key word in this post :D. But you got it right, well done sir. To quote another poster on here, he can “croot” em, but can he actually COACH them?

The topic is “best” assistant coach. He never said there was no other good assistant coaches in the state. Just in his opinion he thinks Nix is the best. 

True I guess that is fair.  i would bet that most of not all head coaches would claim that they have an assistant that is the "best" due to the work they do.  But never the less I see your point.

Look at his credentials. He has been at Alcoa since 2004.

 Look at Alcoa's Record since 2004. Especially what the defense has done in their championship games. After you look at the numbers,  tell me someone with better numbers over 15+ years. That's 15 State Championships since 2004 that he has won. Only blem being the 0-7 loss to CPA in 2014. Even then his system held CPA way under their season average. Last two Championship games against the second best team in classification........62-0. 

Also note,  Coach Brian Nix won two straight state championships before Head Coach Rankin came to Alcoa in 2006. One step farther,  Alcoa's Defensive Coach Gamble should also be mentioned.  He has been Coach Nix right hand man and does an equally great job.

Can't argue the numbers and I have absolutely nothing bad to say about either man as I have no clue who they even are.  I would argue that they are doing those things with great talent that other teams do not remotely have.

The last sentence hits the nail on the head perfectly.

The talent comes from the sucess. Sucess draws talent. Without great coaching you will not have either. What was Alcoa sucess though the 90's? Alcoa had the Hall Community,  the Al Davis's, and many other great talented players, and not one championship thoughtout the 90's. Look at even 2002 and 2003 before Nix? 2002 team went 3-7. Coach Reid and Coach Nix arrive and go win a championship in 2004  That's where and when the freight train was put in motion.  Now, Parents and players that dream to play for a winner will do what it takes to play for Alcoa. Parents that want the best for their kids and think their child has a chance to play in college and to get a scholarship will move to Alcoa. Seen this over and over.  These that come in are not the main key to Alcoa sucess, but help. The Alcoa area has had generation after generation,  some of the best football players to ever come out of Tennessee. The Aluminum Company of America is to be thanked for that.

      Yes region 1 is extremely weak but a # 5 seed out of region 2 has no business in the playoffs either.

      They've had some great talent over the years. They usually don't whip no one but can be tough to stop on offence.

      TSSAA should be embarrassed

      Could be a lot of reason from what I’ve seen so far.  The lights wouldn’t turn on at Smyrna last night and had to move games to Blackman could be a reason or maybe he is talking about how on some of the games on NFHS network the camera placement was absolutely asinine. ( had a camera set up right in front of a net and couldn’t see crap)

      If Gordonsville can manage getting through these next 2 games without using him it will be ideal. ER was the last team to not have to pitch their #1 till the state championship i believe. Worked out well for them but they also had one of the best 1A staffs of all time that year. Only allowed one run the whole tournament and it was in the 7th inning.

      And he’s not even their #1. Lights out performance. Gordonsville is in the drivers seat with their #1 arm available throughout the tournament.
