warriorpop Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 (edited) Does Britton have a gripe @ RHS?? The kids love him! And from what I have seen he is a great coach, one I would hate to lose. Edited December 5, 2003 by warriorpop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ERA Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 I have one question. Why would anyone leave a winning tradition at Riverdale to go to Warren County with the many problems they are having right now? I believe it would be better to go to a school with less inner struggles with the credentials of Britton than to go there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairInMyFavor Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 I have one question. Why would anyone leave a winning tradition at Riverdale to go to Warren County with the many problems they are having right now? My sentiments EXACTLY....why would anyone want to go to Warren County with the problems they have. Those problems are bigger than a football coach can cure.

warriorpop Posted December 5, 2003 Report Share Posted December 5, 2003 Britton is from W Co - -is that correct?? That could explain why his name is at the top of their list. Snow is from there also correct. Tell the folks in W Co they can find Ray Barnes @ Blackman Middle (Asst Principal) GREAT COACH!!!! Maybe he would help revive the program. I think he still has family there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobracoach Posted December 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 My first coaching job was in Pasadena Texas and we were a 5A school. We had a freshman A and B team, Soph team, and a JV team. We all played on Thursday nights and the varsity played on Friday. We had about 2,500 kids in the school and football was a tradition. Tennessee will never have that through the state like Texas does BUT some of the larger schools could have successful programs when the school board demands it and wants it. Riverdale wants it! Know matter who Warren County gets they will have to support him and give him time. Plus the coach has to pay his bills and why would someone want to come down in pay because his retirement depends on his past salaries.

Guest region4fan Posted December 7, 2003 Report Share Posted December 7, 2003 I would think that it is every football coach's dream to go back and be the head coach at his alma mater. That is one of the reasons that I feel that Steve Britton will make this job a reality. Also he tried for head jobs at Blackman and Siegel...maybe even Lavergne. He was passed over for all. This could be his shot to prove that he has what it takes and that Rutherford County missed out on a great one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobracoach Posted December 8, 2003 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2003 I have heard several people in Warren County say alot of really nice things about Coach Britton. If he wants the job and to come back home I hope he gets it and I hope they will give him support to get the job done. Like I have always said if you dont have support from the top it doesnt matter what a coach does he will always have a hard time to be successful. For Coach Britton or anyone else he has to have the time and support from everyone to put Warren County back on top again. If Coach wants it lets hope that they move quickly and let people know who the new coach is going to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southpaw24 Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 word is that they've narrowed it to three: britton, britton, and britton... they're having a tough time deciding which of them to take.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Croach Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Has Coach Britton accepted the job, yet or is he still thinking about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hambone Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 I know for a fact that Smith from Ezell applied but all he heard was that the job was to go to Rankin or Brittion....everything says Brittion....have heard that Smith has pulled his name out of the hat....they want Brittion they have Britton...hope all of his years of head coahing experience come in handy....here's a note for future thoughts...the Riverdale system works alot better when the Riverdale players come with it.......no spread offense for the pioneers.....Good Luck to coach Britton, heard he was offically offered the job today!
