Look further down on his post, he said 35-40 times a year.

 

:laugh: I missed that, thanks for clearing that up. I don't know anything about Gentry if he gets the job.

Obviously you did not see Cumberland play this year.........

 

The Patriots threw the ball consistantly in the neighborhood of 18-20 times a game and had one of the best reciever in the MSC.......

 

Besides it does not matter, Chuck King is the head man at Cumberland not Roger Gentry, and he will be running his offense, not Coach Kings.

2005 UC in 10 games had 163 pass att. 92 comp. compared to 566 rush att. you can do the math. So do you think Gentry will vary from this much. Look I hope you are right in that he will open it up some but IMO Gentry and King are out of the same mold.

Actually saw Cland play 3 times..Cland did throw it ALOT more this year with King calling the plays...It will be Gentrys offense at Whitley..guess time will tell if he throws 15 times a game or 50 times a year..I can see wide receiver at Whitley next year being a lonely place. :laugh:

Listen I don't care if they run it every play, as long as they are successful....

Understand...What will the Redstorm/Colonel faithful feel is successful...???? Its hard to look at what Campnell did and say he was unsuccessful.

Agreed, but sometimes people at the top feel it is time for a change.

 

Successful will be defined in a several ways.....

 

1. More kids out.(Better player retention)

 

2. More Wins

 

3. More people in the stands.

 

4. More excitement around the program.

 

5. More support for the program from the parents.

 

As always it will be interesting, anytime there is a new coach there is a new excitement around any program. The new prespective won't hurt the program.

Regardless of who the named coach will be, it is very important to get behind him and support the program. It won't do any good to question the whys of the reasons he is there. Unfortunatley Coach Campbell won't be there, but undermining the new coach won't bring him back.

Seems like the move with Gentry would be a parallel one at best. If these are the only applicants then the Colonels program did not draw the interest that I thought it would. Best of luck to whomever is in control for the Colonel footballers.

Personally I wasn't surprised at so few applicants. I have relatives in Williamsburg and have heard that job may be a political cauldron. I wish luck to who ever takes it and hope they have a good set of armour.

A close member of the Anderson family just told me that Gentry has been named the head coach. Look for it to be official to the public tomorrow.

He has been positioning himself for over a year for the job, looks like his moves paid off.

Almost noon...Any official word?

It sounds if the new coach undermined coach Campbell?

It is official.

 

Roger Gentry is the new Head Football Coach at Whiltey County.
