Reeder Resigns at Jackson South Side

[ReitzFan]

Tyler Reeder has resigned as the head football coach at Jackson South Side. He was 34-50 leading the Hawks. He says he resigned to spend more time with his family.

To me, this is a strange time to be resigning as he coached the Hawks during spring practice. It definitely leaves JSS in a bind unless they hire from within.

Thoughts?

He'll be on Milans staff before you know it. Maybe McKenzie

Goodness could public Jackson school football get any worse ? He was the best coach in Jackson at the moment which isn’t saying much to be honest.

Not until JMCSS decides to be fully committed into athletics and give their football coaches everything they need to be successful. They're lacking severely in a facilities standpoint that benefits the players, not the fans. The field houses these players/coaches are in daily is what I'm referring to.

Yes, they gave North Side and South Side a new stadium for their fans to sit in. But, it doesn't benefit the players.

He says he wants to spend more time with his family. With respect to Reeder as a coach, I think the timing of his resignation was ill timed. Resigning after spring practice tends to say he may have another job in the wings. Never the less, a resignation at this time is bad for the kids and the school

Coach Reeder lives on the McKenzie area as most know. Look for him to stay out of coaching for a year or two. His family has a construction business he might likely join making much more than coaching could afford. He also wants to watch his son play ball. He could not do that and continue to coach South Side. His late resignation pretty much ensures that one of his assistants will get promoted into being the head coach. That is why Reeder resigned when he did.

I hope somebody calls 911, because there is a fire at South Side. 

This team isn't good, and they weren't good at all in 2022. They won 3 games, and all 3 teams they defeated were basically winless teams (if you dissect the schedule, you'll know what I mean). Not surprised by the announcement, the timing was a shocker though. They struggled offensively, couldn't develop an efficient deep passing game. They also lack playmakers and big play ability. 

So, who wants the job? Can't just assumed that an assistant would want to take over. There are other opportunities that are out there. When it comes to Jackson schools, South Side lacks the talent the other schools have, they also struggle to sell out the stadium for years now. They basically have their own middle school that feeds into SS, but they haven't produced much talent as well across the middle school rankings. I don't think people understand how bad West Tennessee was at football last year...
