What does Owen County need to do to improve in 2007? What do they need to keep doing to be successful? Remember, please be constructive.

I've heard that Coach U resigned this week. Does anyone have more info on this?

Coach U did resign. To get better, first, they need a coach, second, they need to pass the ball. They will have 15 seniors returning with great speed,

but they cant get the ball in the air. Cox will probably be quarterback. He has a good arm but needs more time to throw. In my opinion, Owen's QB's never

drop back far enough or step up into the pocket, just 2 steps back

and thats it, no matter what pass play. Third, they will need leadership on the field. They will miss Jimmy Dalton, He was the man. They will miss Coach U as well. IMO the talent is there, I hope they get another good coach who will utilize their speed.

Any word on where U is going?

Coach U got the best out of his players.

I heard that Owen Co's Principle posted that the coaching job was open,

and Coach U found out and resigned. If this is true, shouldn't they have

fired him first ?

That would be a bad way to do someone. :flame:

That is a shame! I like his passion for the game and players! Heck He coached the whole season in ankle boot. Seemed as if he had things going in the right direction. Best of luck in the future Coach U.

Coach U is a class guy and he will be greatly missed.

 

Owen Co still has their geography problem. As one of the largest counties in the state (top 10 I think) It is a long was to and from school. Younger kids don't drive and need a ride. Last I heard the are just over 10,000 people in the county and come August there is a lot of tobacco to be cut and housed. That keeps kids off of the practice field.

I agree _ I belive he did a good job with the talent and schedule he had.

Has Owen hired new coach yet?

Any names or news on the coaching job yet?

Any names associated with this job?

What is the word on candidates with Owen?
