Well tell what is you have "heard" and we will tell you what is true. :clap:

:confused: They are typically one of the bigger teams around. Are you saying they are going to be bigger than usual?? Heck 3 years ago they averaged in the hood of 300 lbs on the O-line.

This will be Coach Arnett's 2nd season and 1st full off-season. I would expect to see Clay switch from an offense first team relying on the pass to a defensive minded team establishing the run when they have the ball. I would look for them to compete for the 2nd spot in the district in 09.

This hire will show how serious the SL administration is about football.

Correct

I have heard the Bell Asst that has applied is Randy Frazier. He was the head coach at Cumberland back in the 90's when they had some wonderful teams. Coach Frazier is a great coach, wonderful leader and great role model for young men. I know the Bell Co. faithful would hate to see him leave b/c he has been a great addition to the staff the past couple of years. :thumb:

A lot of head coaches like starting with a clean slate. I am sure that these assistants you are refering to are great coaches but in most cases it is a hinderance more so than a help to have someone that the players have a previous relationship with when trying to establish a new team idenity.

I hope they get someone hired soon for the players sake. Were is he going?

From what I have heard they will not have many openings for teachers. I think they will try to hire from inside, possibly a current asst.

Keep in mind KC lost one of the most underrated players in the area in Carnes at HB.

You basicly have 1 person away from the LOS the safety and that is it, any playaction and CB's are gone. If the MLB misses the tackle it is by by b/c the safety can't be asked to play in that much space. That to me is very unsound. As said if you have superior talent it really don't matter, in this case if your D-line gets blocked. It is very similar to M'bor's unsound defense. You HC people got to witness that first hand last year.

Very true those two's numbers together were more than the other 13 teams rushing output combined. Including Boyle, Rock, Whitley and so on. :eek:

If they are giving him a 100 day contract why not give a 100 day contract to Graham or Reitz for that matter? Both have been very sucessful and have wanted the 100 gig. No disrespect meant to the AD but who is really more important? :confused:

They lost most of their skilled postions and defense. They will return a few good lineman. They will always be soild as long as Preston is running the show.

I will add they lost some pretty good OL and DL as well. They will be right their with the rest in the top. With Dawson and Aumiller on defense and Mcshara (sp) on offense they have a nucleus of a good team.
