Best Offensive Line Coach in da State?

[Redtwin]

I'll second edd caudill. great teacher of fundamentals. helps his usually small lineman survive using techinque and intelligence. it didn't hurt to have john clay, former alabama standout helping him out with his pass protections for a couple of years. both of them know exactly what they're talking about, and do a good job spelling it out for their kids.

STEVE BRITTON FROM RIVERDALE . VERY SOLID IN RUN / PASS BLOCKING . YOU WILL NOT FIND ANOTHER O-LINE COACH WHO WILL OUTWORK HIM . DOESN'T ALWAYS HAVE THE D-1 PROSPECTS , BUT GETS THE JOB DONE YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT . IF YOU COACH ON RANKIN'S STAFF , YOU KNOW YOUR STUFF FOR SURE .

How are the guys under Britton? The middle school and freshman OL coaches?

Tim Jackson from Milan. Grew up in Milan and played for John Tucker. Played on scholarship at UT Martin. Came home and has coached the O-Line at Milan. The most gifted offensive line coach. Not only this, he is a wonderful Christian man who the guys really look up to. GO DAWGS!

I would have to agree with Grizzly. Josh Kerr at Anderson County. He is a past Ga/ETSU lineman. He had the opportunity to be the assistant strentgth coach at LSU, but instead he went to AC to caoch. THis year ha has thrown out the normal Larry Kerr weight program, which is legendary, and went with a new explosion weight program that is amazing, and this is why is line allowing for their team to gain incredible yards on the ground.

Bubba Montgomery at BA, played at WKU and puts in tons of extra time with the lineman to make sure they always know who to block, and remember" lineman make tackles for losses and linebackers make tackles for 4 yard gains "

I think that Ron Gray at Oak Ridge is the best oline coach and offensive coordinator.

I agree with William Barham. He was probably the most enthusiastic, most knowledgeable coach in the state. He balanced offensive line and defensive line practices well. Dublin High (Georgia) was more than lucky to get him.

David Ellis at Maryville is as good of an O-line coach as I've been around.

I agree Govman. David Ellis may be the best coach on Maryville's staff. David is a 1st class guy. The players would run through a brick wall for him. David cares for his current players and his former players. He has been by the hospital to see Chuck Prugh a few times. George Quarles went by the hospital last night after the Freshmen and JR Varsity game.

Barham is bye far one of da best. We really miss him up here. He had some lipcomb ties cause his wife coached there (womens golf I think).

Is Jason Cline the new offensive line coach for Portland?

Raider,

 

I think his name is Spencer Tilghman and not Steve. Regardless, you are on to something. I too heard that Tilghman is a very good O-line coach. I know for a fact he has climbed the ladder at DL very rapidly. He went from working w/ Temple at the MS level to freshman to varsity all within a very small window of time. One of their former players told Temple that Tilghman was the brains of the outfit and Tyler would constantly consult him for advice and information and even blockinh rules. He said all Tyler does well is yell (He mentioned a funny story about them "taking it up the tail pipe" after a loss to SMith Co.).

 

But all this is hearsay. I don't know Tilghman. I wouldn't know the guy if he walked in and gave me a bear hug. For that matter, I don't know Tyler. I'm sure they're both good men.

 

There seems to be some talk about McAdam's retirement? Shouldn't he have retired years ago. I mean he's a good coach and all, but he's pretty old, isn't he? I saw him on TV of the DL/Goodpasture game a few weeks back and he looks like he's in his mid-60's. I gues those private schools don;t have the good retirement plans like the public schools. And from looking at his huge belly he might be spending it all on food! Just kidding. Every dealing I've ever had with McAdams has been a good one. He teaches class to those kids.

 

From what I hear about Tilghman maybe he replaces the old man.
