I'm looking here...and wondering where I personally insulted him? where I made a joke about him? In the words of Ben Shapiro "Facts Don't Care about Your Feelings"...and the fact is....Havok made an unnecessary and not in the least funny joke and took an unwarranted jab at someone who is doing what NONE of you all are doing.... Would you make the same joke about Nick Saban? BOY HOWDY, he's probably the BEST coach that has ever walked this earth...How successful was he in Miami? It's all about placement and fit, maybe it wasn't the right placement of fit for GC and Akers, who knows....but I GUARANTEE he put the time and effort in to try and be successful...... 

It's no longer a "light hearted joke" when the horse has been beat and beat and beat....It was personally insulting to mention Akers "as a possibility" for the job because he didn't find success at a school and morons like you keep the narrative alive... did you ever see the time he put in to try and make a program successful? Did you ever see the time he spent away from family? Did you see any of the stuff he did? If the answer to ANY of those questions are No, anything anyone says on this board is invalid.... 

I'm just saying, a lot of people get on here and say in jest "I would do this, I would do that....and question every thing WE coaches do....solely based on what you see on Friday nights.... How many people on here can say they watch hours upon hours of film.... I'm gonna say less than 1% of the "Bleacher Coaches" on here if even 1%.... and I get it, coaches are in public eye and should be able to take criticism.... but what I am angry about is the fact that this man, Akers, rode off into the sunset... and left no real wake other than this ill-conceived and asinine notion that you all seem to have about the man...and has moved on with his life...but you people can't let the damn thing go....It must be like heroin to you....if you don't mention his name at least once a week you will start shaking and have violent withdrawals from being absolute trolls who think you know something about something you know absolutely nothing about... if it's that bad I'm sure you all can google a picture of him... frame it... and just go bananas... but again...since it's such a joke for him to apply then I'm sure most of you all would be perfect fits and would go 15-0 and win State championships galore.... So shut up or apply

That’s quite the realization for someone who has been on the board for 2 days... 🤷🏻‍♂️

Greg Schiano once said "Every man in America thinks he can do 2 things: Work a Grill and Coach Football"..... Better start marinating them steaks, or shut up and Apply for the job.....

You are right...but people have to say things that have nothing to do with the original intent of the post.  

I thought we were talking about Ridgeview? oh well.........................

I don't think anyone called him an asshole.  You need to hold his hand just a little bit longer today?  First of all, if you have never suited up and taken the field,  you should just keep your jokes and opinions to yourself.  I am pretty sure that he never played.  I guarantee that you all that sit on here and criticize people have no clue about what they do.  Probably heard it from one of your little GC cronies.

your argument became invalid with the phrase "IN THE PAST"....literally had nothing to do with the coach in question....you brought this on yourself by rehashing a dead joke that literally makes you look foolish

One that is sick and tired of assclowns like you posting crap. Little keyboard warriors write on here about a guy who no longer coaches at "GC."  Oh let me refresh you memory about the guy you are talking about had 49 points at halftime vs. Ridgeview.

Hard to coach real ball from behind a keyboard....

Why don't you apply for the job since you know so much?  What a jerk.

I'm almost certain that Mance takes his shoes with him and the new coach will bring in his own footwear. 

Dennis Palmer. He will come back.

I've got on good authority it's Coach Rick Vice.
 

I'll go ahead and say it. Akers was never given full control of the team.  I know it's not a popular belief but it is true. He would make decisions only to be told by a couple higher ups it would not happen. I saw some of it first hand. I'm really hoping it don't happen with Jeremy. All I do know now is it will take time. 

Don’t know about gc...yes the kids are playing hard but.  The schemes aren’t much better than the last two years.  

GW does not run a tempo offense....
 
and with 30 ish players and no jv team there is no 3rd string

What if I told you that I loved the Train Horn at Union weeks ago? 
It's what playing on the road is all about. Gotta learn how to play through adversity sometimes. Gotta learn how to deal with life through adversity sometimes. 
Can't keep making excuses for these kids and then wonder why they can't handle anything when they grow up. 

Just a little curious about this....are you saying that Coach Austin listened to you and used him that way you suggested?  I just would like to know how many practices you go to, how many drills you run, etc, etc, etc,
