The real reason the game was moved to Lake County was the fact that LC was only going to have 3 home games this year. Coach Smith of Haywood County did LC a big favor by agreeing to move the game to LC. LC will make the return trip next year. LC is a small program and needs all the gate and concession money they can get. It was never away to get out of the game. LC needs to play all they can. HC coach is a class act. He didn't have to agree to moving the game but he did. That is the truth to the situation.

Good stuff by Coach Smith. He could've easily said IDC you're coming to Brownsville. 3 home games is rough financially but at least Haywood and Peabody are 2 of the 3. They travel well.

For the most part high school coaches are really good people. They do an incredible amount of work for little pay. Often times, after they do all the work and get the team ready to play, people ridicule or hack them because they lost the game.... Never stop to ask if the coach had the proper plan in...  

Coach Smith is a fine coach, and he has worked wonders for the Haywood community. 

I also tip my hat the coaches from LC for agreeing to play Haywood. I am certainly there are 3, 4, and 5 A schools that would not schedule and out of region game with the Tomcats.

I just hope we can keep him at Haywood. My son loves Coach Smith.

Sounds like Haywood County has them a real good coach. I really hope they can bring home that 4A gold ball.

Make sure the community know how much they appreciate him and show him a lot of love! Coaches like him are a hot commodity and it would not surprise me if one of the money school from the other end of the state tries to swoop him up.

Greeneville and a few others are standing in the way! I would love to see Haywood get a gold ball as well. Not as much as I would love to see SGC get one, but if I had to pick a school it would coach smith and company at Haywood.

    • Fortuitously encountering Clint amidst the ambience of Goodyear this morning sparked an impromptu yet intellectually stimulating conversation, wherein we engaged in a rigorous assessment of prospective candidates for the esteemed role of head football coach. Our discourse, characterized by its spontaneity and depth, led to the formulation of astute observations and discerning judgments regarding the suitability of various individuals for this pivotal position. Allow me to elucidate the fruits of our collaborative contemplation: This commentary endeavors to offer a discerning articulation of my subjective viewpoint, emphasizing a conscientious commitment to maintaining impartiality and refraining from any semblance of derogation directed towards individuals.  Those who possess meritorious qualifications for the esteemed head coaching role, delineated without hierarchical precedence, include: Rennard Woodmore, an esteemed alumnus of the Yellow Jackets, presents a magnificent pedigree, having held prominent positions in head coaching capacities across various regions. His pivotal role as a coordinator for teams contending for state championships further enhances his stature in the realm of football leadership. Kyle Gregory, erstwhile adorned in the resplendent gold insignia, though lacking direct head coaching experience, brings to the fore his invaluable insights garnered as a coordinator for esteemed teams, showcasing an acute understanding of the requisites for triumph whilst attired in the esteemed purple and gold regalia. Steven Jackson, whose contributions transcended mere clipboard duties under the tutelage of Kevin Creasy, emerges as an exceptional candidate for Trousdale County. His prior tenure and triumphs as an assistant coach underscore his suitability for the role. The sole drawback lies in his lack of affiliation with Trousdale County as an alumnus. Brandon Eden's extensive tenure within the chronicles of Trousdale County football, spanning a significant portion of its State Championships, coupled with his successful stints as a coordinator across diverse locales, underscores his candidacy despite a dearth of direct head coaching experience at the high school level. Davy Cothron, while beset by a modest playing career, has emerged as a luminary in offensive strategy, drawing parallels to the transformative appointment of Barker in 2015, thereby warranting consideration for his proven acumen in this realm. Joshua Hackett, notwithstanding his non-alumnus status, has left an indelible imprint across Middle Tennessee, distinguished by his adept curation of formidable defensive units as a coordinator at Watertown, albeit without direct head coaching experience. Kevin Creasy, the epitome of coaching prowess, merits an offer irrespective of his current inclinations, his unparalleled capacity to secure victories transcending geographical and institutional bounds, potentially extending to a role as Director of Schools should it align with his aspirations. Conversely, individuals who have not demonstrably earned the mantle of head coaching, enumerated without sequential precedence, encompass: Brad Waggoner David Barker Paul Pitts Jeremy Pruitt Clint Satterfield Robbie Atwood Wesley Satterfield Ben Johnson BJ West Whom do you all deem most fitting to assume the mantle of the next coach, and what rationale informs your choice? Conversely, whom do you perceive as ill-suited for the role, and what underpins your reasoning for their exclusion?
    • He's a Clinton fan.  But I wouldn't admit that either.  
    • Their any schedule out their for team camp?
    • This sums it all up to perfection.  
    • Just read the article! In one statement he says he didn’t know the player was academically ineligible yet he also says he met with a teacher in 2022 to discuss putting the player in credit recovery.  I find it hard to believe a Head Coach doesn’t know a player is not eligible; are they not responsible for clearing them to the TSSAA?
