In 1996 Maryville struggled because of so many sophomores starting which made the 98 team tougher. In 2000 and 2009 Maryville struggled some because of playing a bunch of sophomores. 2018 team lost to Alcoa and Oakland but that team was Junior dominated. This years team is senior dominated. Only 1 starter returns on defense. Offense loses a lot plus no upper class man Quarterback to lean on. I think next year will be worse. What you just described my good friend about next year will be called operation "Scorched Earth". It's where the coaching staff will ramble through the wreckage to find any survivors then call in the Red Cross for assistance afterwards.

They're still the best team in Region 2 and Region 1 is pretty weak. They've already beat Science Hill easily, DB is an 8-1 team that plays like a 1-8 team, and Jeff. co is average at best.

Sometimes it’s the “Jimmy and Joes”, not the “X’s and O’s”. Truth! Thx for the perspective. Sometimes we don’t like to admit it, but we usually have the best players on the field except for one or two games every year. We did have a D1 running back this year.

I doubt the coaching has changed or gotten significantly worse in the past year or two- sometimes the talent and/or chemistry of a team just is not there.

BarneySox2007 Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 There are a few positions we didn't even have a Jimmy or Joe, we had bus riders playing those positions. That's why you haven't seen me get on here and come unglued on the coaching staff. There are some questions there but Derek will have to deal with that and he knows there will have to be some adjustments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West looked to be the far superior team especially on both sides of the line of scrimmage, at the skill positions, and on special teams; but IMO they also looked too one dimensional on offense. I’m sure the good folks in Bradley county will be anxious to help us right the ship next week. 4 should get some reps at qb to prepare for next year. Evidently we don’t have any competition at that position. Completely agree. It’s obvious Maryville doesn’t have the talent they’re use to having at most skill positions, outside of rb of course. But that’s where coaching comes into play. It’s their job to put them in position to make plays. But the schemes and game plans have failed to do so in most games this year in my opinion. It’s extremely frustrating to watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I was told last night didn't sound good. Fortunately he has a good medical advisory structure close to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked like he was just cramping up on the sideline, that’s what the broadcast announcers were speculating anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You cant run a back 15 times in a row (the same play) and expect him to remain healthy. Something significant has changed over the last little while , oakland must have punked out the staff .

I have listened for years and years and years about how Maryville’s success was all about culture and coaching. Maryville fans always underplayed how talented their teams were and loved to claim they rarely had big time college recruits. Then talked about how coaching overcame all of it. Now when they truly don’t have more talented players, no big time QB for the first time in 30 years, no big time WR, they want to flip and blame the kids. Praise the coaches when they’re winning, blame the kids when they lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
