Donald Smith wasn't sure he would ever coach football again. However, the chance to help Mercer County coach Marty Jaggers mold the newly merged Mercer-Harrodsburg football team was an opportunity Smith couldn't let go by.

 

The former star running back and coach at Harrodsburg will officially join the Mercer staff July 10 as associate head coach.

I think this is a very good move by Coach Jaggers of hiring of Donald Smith.

Everything at Mercer is news ... at that's good , I like reading it. Football starts and ends with a consistent scheme , execution and most importantly kids - with ability - who have a full understanding so they can execute. In my opinion all these changes at Mercer will take time (likely more than one season) to gel. Certainly this is the challenge for the combined efforts of new coaches and players. Good luck Mercer , your size and numbers were wearing us down late in the game last year.... that's all the clue you get for this season ....
