Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Per @zoneblitz24 Coach Bowling comes from Olive Branch High School in Mississippi. He was also the former head coach at Union City High School (TN). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud_Kilmer Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 This seems to be a slam dunk hire in my opinion. Coach Bowling has 4 state championhips under his belt at a small school. He came from Olive Branch, a very good 6a program in Mississippi playing great competition. I believe he will get things rolling at Murray. Good luck to him! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bud_Kilmer Posted June 29, 2021 Share Posted June 29, 2021 Most of the time the flexbone does not use two TE's but I could be wrong. Definiltely will read one or multiple players on every play. Hopefully he will utilize some RPO's and play action more than Duncan did. Bowling's offense will be much more complex than anything Duncan ever did though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowling's offense will be much more complex than anything Duncan ever did though. When running a double wing/flex bone offense. Murray has been here before. From 2008-2013, Coach Steve Duncan coach the Tigers running a similar offense. His tenure brought a hard nose, blue collar offense similar to what Coach Bowling is accustomed to. Murray was 63-16 (8-4,12-1,12-1,12-2,10-3,9-5) during those seasons with a couple semi state games. I agree with Bud_Kilmer. Coach Bowling needs to take advantage of the skill players he has on hand. This year's skill group looked to be better than what they had last year. Hope he gets buying from everyone on day 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely! Mox ruined my career trying all that razzle dazzle crap. Now I’m retired and watch high school football and think about how much better I can coach vs other guys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
