Heard from a very reliable source today that Tom Crigger is gonna throw his name in the ring for the head job at Central. He’s been out of coaching for a few years but itching to get back in. He and Luke were high school teammates and I’m sure Luke would give him a good word. U heard it here first, Coach Crigger back in the saddle!

Coincidence: decade team graduates a bunch and coach is out. Don't think because talent left,  but more like he tried his best with their best and it didn't happen. No shame in that,  right decision that any coach would/has said they would do if they can't produce consistently. Politics, certainly involved but maybe they don't air their laundry like everyone else.  He did a good job at a non- football school. 

 

Akers? Too soon? Bahahaha 

I find this statement funny! Leaving with the talent Huh? Maybe he is just tired and ready to move on with life. Being a head coach and doing a good job is a grind. JJ kelly nor pound has had a lot of success on the Gridiron with the exception of a couple years. However, since the schools consolidated there still hasn't been much success with the exception of the past couple years. In the last 3 years Luke has beat union 3 out of 4 times and won 4 playoff games.  Before 2019 they had never defeated Union or won a playoff game. I think this little 3 year run got a lot of wise people spoiled because they had never been there before. He has been on both ends with Central and he is leaving the program better than he found it. Central is a tough place to coach and its not a football school. Hats off to Coach Owens! Oh yeah by the way central has another good group on the way! So the shelf is not empty!
