Where does DCA go?

The solution/answer is to promote Beau and give Mr Basketball Paul’s money.   That would be the answer to the riddle.  

The solution is to hire the very best candidate available and then get out of his way and let the man do his job!  Promoting from within is the easy hire and the most excruciating fire.  Winning will solve most all of the problems and issues.

What DCA should consider based on feedback is fixing boys basketball immediately.   And fixing basketball as a whole for the good of the school.    We can post records in basketball and anywhere else there would be change.  

Football will be fine no matter who they hire.   

The front runners for the job are good candidates, but not what they thought they would be down to.   We wish them luck. 

If loyalty truly matters, then be loyal.  Actions speak louder than words.   Right now with a birdseye view, there is only loyalty to people that are protecting their own self interests. 

It would be best for all parties involved.  

Those that choose to complain, will complain no matter what.   They are waiting for an answer to their prayers.  They want to see the school be successful.  They want to see winning at the highest level.   One bad decision cost a generation worth of alumni that care about the program.   But that can be fixed when those same people choose to come back.  

And that starts at the top with Keith and Dennis.   They need prayers.   Some would say, they need to get out of the way and let the Lord handle it.   I choose to believe there is a higher ceiling than many realize.  

Very simple process.  Hire people, not resumes.  If you hire the right people, it all works out in the end.   
 

The longer it drags out, the better the process for everyone.   There is no reason to be in a rush.

Be a fountain, and God bless all! 

Well said.  I like your thought process.

Dennis Goodwin has had this program on target as Coach and AD for over 30 years. The next coach will be a winner, no need to rush when making sure it's the right fit for future of DCA football program. I'm sure the DCA job had a lot of applicants because of its winning tradition and the fact that its never available only two coaches in over 30 years.

Coach Goodwin is as good of a Coach Tennessee High School football has had.  I know for a fact that he relied heavily on 2 men over the years as assistant coaches, Paul Wade and Brian Beaubien.  Both left DCA to become successful head coaches in their own rights only to return to DCA.  Obviously to work with Coach Goodwin again.

100% agree, but seems like the Administration listens to "Juicy J"Cary. Could make for the next great Netflix Sports Documentary...:popcorneater:

True.   But talked to him the other day, and he’s been tied up with personal matter and work.   He has a really great job and didnt say anything about the situation at DCA.   In fact, everytime I have asked, he has answered “No Clue” out of respect to the administration and candidates that are some of his friends from school that go way back.

Three simple sentences.

Not one misleading or indirect thought.

Best post in months regarding hires for athletics.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
