Rice makes a difference in just about any small school program immediately. First place he recruits players will be the hallways, and baseball and basketball teams. By summer, some kids will have to decide whether to go to Summertown to play or not...that's how it begins, and if he is the coach there in 5 or 6 years they'll (in my opinion) be established as one of the programs to beat. Coaching ability helps, but cred with the kids will add talent in a hurry.

"First place he recruits will be the hallways".....excellent analysis right there. Thought he may go to the local Kroger first.

I guess there's a certain level of awareness that is necessary to distinguish between what words in a sentence say, and the meaning that they infer...

Can't think of a better coach for that program.  For anyone who says to the small school program being held back by a mediocre coach "who are you going to hire"?  You never know when a Coach Rang or Coach Rice will make  a move. This is the 2nd year in a row a 6A Rutherford County head coach has dropped down to Region 5 2A. 

 

If he gets there in time for spring practice and finds a QB he can make a difference in year 1. He has a top running back and a top receiver in the region coming back. 

Matt had waverly flipped around in one season. Without Matt in 2014 waverly went 1-9 to 9-3 and the second round of the playoffs with Matt in 2015. 
 

Rice will make an impact this coming season watch and see. Its a skill to pull the athletes from the hall some coaches have it some coaches don’t. Rice has proven he has that skill.

Great points. A great coach can make a bigger difference in shorter time at a smaller school in my opinion.  Some coaches are good with X's and O's. Some are good with players. A few are good with both. Many can't do either.

On a side note, did #24 graduate? He's listed as a junior on some sites and as a senior on others.

    • He may have possibly said that to get the best out of him. Back when I was in school word got out I was going to transfer and Coach Story popped off and ask Coach Wilson in front of the team if Maryville was going to get a jock strap in return on this trade. That got back to me and I got fired up and stayed just to show them up. Now today Coach Story is one of my best friends.
    • Dylan's Dad, I'm glad you replied. I wanted to reply but wasnt willing to take the bait. There were 20 wrestlers on the team. I may be mistaken and correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 5 of the 20 attend McCallie right now and one will next year. At most, there are/were 6 kids on that team who attend McC. That leaves 14 other team members who have ZERO affiliation with McC (outside of maybe some friends) who represented our state to the best of their ability and wrestled their butts off that weekend. That weekend was a first for Tennessee and obviously a small step in the right direction for us as a state. Congratulations TEAM TN BLACK!
    • Danny Wilson is the only one that come's to mind but I don't know where he is at now.
    • I am pro coach all day long but there are some knucklehead hires for sure. 
    • This is a great question. The retirement seemed a little premature. I do not know the coach personally, but I hope he has found what he is looking for. He is a fine Christian man with a lot of principle and morals about him. I wish him nothing but the best. There are some players in the box for the next coach. This is going to be interesting to see how it plays out.
