Coach Hard

Again, I'm sure there is quite a few really solid high school coaches that never played a down of college football. I really don't see that point at all. That being said, has anyone heard of any solid leads as to who is going after this position. I figured this to be a big one. Isn't Madison County one of the higher paying public school spots in the state? Seems like I heard that when the Madison Southern job was open a couple of years ago.

Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with footballhd here. What would that have to do with anything? I'm sure Coach Turner knew his system, he had ran it for quite some time. so I really don't follow the college experience idea.

Really? Station?? What's up with that? They have a lot of great talent coming up from the younger groups. Would be a good place for someone.

I heard that they had 70+ kids today to start the winter weight program. Sounds like they are really headed in the right direction.

I couldn't imagine McKee would leave Scott County. He is the AD and his wife works there. Just couldn't see the positives outweighing the negatives for him.

Seemed like a lot of flags overall at the whole bowl. Stripes were calling it close all night. Savoy is a stud!!! Excellent quickness and acceleration. Game was really close in the first half, 14-0 I think. Then it got rolling pretty quickly in the second half.

They should have a strong group of Sophmores and Juniors this year.

That's why I love this website! You get the real scoop here!:ylsuper:

Just a little theory of mine with the whole lifting weights issue. How is lifting weights young, any different than working on a farm, bailing hay, pinning down pigs, etc? That's resistance training. I know it is a little off topic, but I think if kids have done that for centuries, I'm sure bench press, squat, and deadlifting won't hurt them.

One of the greatest of the KY mascot mysteries...:clap:

Not anymore. Seems like they rehired Mike Jones.:deadhorse:

Well, I guess that means we'll see the spread option offense in Estill county this season. Just kidding.

Man, I've heard rumors around the region. We haven't heard from the coach himself on here for a while. What's going on in Irvine?

For some smaller schools, I would like to see the use of a true double wing system. It really lends itself well to eliminating the need for a large line, you don't need one stud running back, and more kids get a chance to run the ball. Plus, I love the ground and pound philosophy of a run heavy offense that focuses on controlling the ball and the clock. Come on 1A football!!! Look at the success that Estill county had with this system (which to my knowledge they will not be doing now with the new coach). Get those splits tight and play football in a phone booth!!!

As a big fan of 1A football, I really hope Berea can resolve any issues they may or may not have with discipline, and take care of things on the field. Honestly, I'm really pulling for this little team from southern Madison county. Considering this team was on the brink of being gone, I really hope for the kids' sakes they can continue to keep things going in a positive direction, both on and off the field. Good Luck Pirates!
