DII-AA (where is Booger?)

Well... What do we have this year?

 

In the East, looks like Boyd Buchanan is back in business after week one. CAK? I know Kings is a small school.  Webb? Grace?

In the West, Lausanne has another really good back I hear? ECS?

In the Middle... How many points will LA put on Indy tonight because Dilfer thinks the AP rankings matter? How many people will BGA, DA, and Goodpasture surprise this year? CPA has another crazy tough schedule this year which hopefully will be fun to watch unfold.

Good luck to all and prayers that we’ll have as normal of a season that we can.

Is going to speak up about the Dilfer video trending right now?  There is no situation where it’s ok to put your hands on a student.  
 

The conversation would have some posters beating their chests saying it was a good thing and the fact people think he went too far show how “soft” we have become... others would say you should see how their HS coach treated them... others would say if it were their child, they would have done the same to Dilfer afterward... and others would say he should be fired... 

I’m sure he regrets what happened. He has apologized. I can’t decide if this viral video hurts or helps his recruiting...

There is no way Dilfer actually wrote that apology. That was 100% damage control by someone within the Lipscomb walls.

The real question is how long does Trent Dilfer continue to coach at DL.  I was hearing the snide comments as early as this time last season about how certain kids were not getting playing time and they had paid full tuition.  That most of the playing time was going to kids that were receiving financial aid.

I think Dilfer will stay put for a few years.  The rest of your comment is spot on for most private schools.  "Little Timmy" comes from a family that has been in the school for years or family donates.  At that point, talent evaluation goes out the window and is replaced by school contribution.  It is sad but true, just like it is the truth that Timmy wouldn't get playing time if he was anyone else.

Certainly nothing new as I have heard that from friends that had kids at BA, BGA, etc for years.  It's that fine line of wanting to win as long as "the talent" does not take my child's spot.

LOL - that’s pretty much the way it is at most good private football powerhouses…

    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover.
