Maryville vs. William Blount

I think any of the WB coaches would tell you, and probably plenty of players as well, that preparation is not the issue. The issue is that WB, as a team, has no heart and no leadership. How does anyone build a program around a team, again as a whole, that has no heart, drive or dignity. Watch some WB games and you will see players walking on and off the field, laughing with their pals and girlfriends and talking about what they are going to do after they change. Meadows is not the issue.

So WB is lacking heart? That's not surprising really. It's hard to instill a winning tradition or a winning spirit in a team that has never established itself as a proven winner. Someone said earlier in this thread that WB had experienced some recent success and is now bottoming out, but in the overall scheme of things Blount has never really been a contender with the likes of Maryville.

 

I've seen this same attitude across several sports at that school over a number of years. I'm not sure what it is about WB, but people have always claimed that they lack heart. Someone needs to go ask coach Baumann how he took a basketball team of underachievers, weeded out the players with bad attitudes, and then created a team whose total was greater than the sum of its players. That's what needs to happen to WB's football team right now. And beyond that the school needs to stick with a coach that will stick with the team over the long haul so that he can instill a system that will yield results in the future.

 

I just hope that the pieces of talent like my boy Oz who are on that team don't give up and jump ship to some other school at season's end hoping to cash in on some quicker success. It would be nice for MHS to have some legit in county opponents such that WB would not be scheduled as the homecoming opponent...that's just insulting.

Papa and FBE, you're both right on. Good break down FBE. You're right to use the word "hate". The WB kids do hate Maryville and have since the late 80's/early 90's. The beat us a couple of times around that time and all of a sudden it was a rivalry to them. I remember them coming over to Maryville and painting stuff all over the stadium in 88 or 89 I believe. The got crushed for that.

 

Let's be clear and look at facts....oh to heck with it. You all know what the overall record is. It's a waste of time to discuss it. Take every game one at a time, yes. We all know how this one should end though.

 

I wanna see Hunt play a bunch and hopefully early in the 3rd. I've been told I'm missing something special. thumb

You are right......he may be a future Maryville QB if he remains at Maryville. He needs to develope touch and a 5.8 forty time needs to improve significanly. Definately has a cannon for an arm and at 6'2" he can see down field.

 

He reminds me of a MHS QB from the past......I believe his name is Steve Jacobs. Steve could over throw the fastest receivers in the state.........and usually did.

If he wants to be a champion, he'll stay. 5.8 is slow for a lineman. He is gonna have to improve that. :lol:

    • 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.  
    • Just read the article! In one statement he says he didn’t know the player was academically ineligible yet he also says he met with a teacher in 2022 to discuss putting the player in credit recovery.  I find it hard to believe a Head Coach doesn’t know a player is not eligible; are they not responsible for clearing them to the TSSAA?
