I don't think Summit will be attending. 

Why is Summit not coming now. That stinks. I’ve been telling a Head Coach brother about some of the Summit kids hoping the coach might keep an eye on those kids. Especially how they have done in the last 2 tournaments.

Black Horse, Cleveland Duals, Beast of the East, then Knockout is a heavy schedule. Some of the kids are just banged up a little and need some time to recover before the Drennan Inv.

Summitt has wrestled an extremely difficult schedule so far this season.  However, I hate it when schools schedule events and then bail due to sickness or injuries.  Just take what you have in healthy starters and backups and wrestle the tournament.  It’s really not fair to the tournament director to allow someone to enter and then completely back out.  I know that this will not be a popular response but it’s the truth.

It most cases I'd agree with you. But this is a 500 mile drive and an expensive trip for a large national tournament to not bring your absolute best roster. 

 

I think, in this instance, its different.

I do and they don’t like it.  When you give a tournament director your word that you are going to do something I am of the school that you do everything possible to keep your commitment even if it hurts.  I have sacrificed several thousand dollars in my business career because I made a commitment to someone and I would do whatever it took to keep my word.

You keep your word to the tournament director even if your team is not it’s best.  This is nothing that I would not tell any of these young coaches.  Let’s stop making excuses and do what we say.

Agree to disagree. 

Not picking on you but this is a sensitive subject to me and when someone gives their word I expect them to honor that commitment.  When someone fails to keep their word because it’s not in their best interest to follow through with a prior commitment it just tells me what type of person they are and I never trust them going forward.

    • A little confused.  What charter/prep schools made it to state in Baseball?  
    • 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.
