Usually Lebanon hires from the inside or within county. In this instance an outside hire maybe good. Whoever gets it has a major qb decision to make right off, that could make or break the program. I feel this program has potential, but needs some new blood, and that is not a knock on any of the current staff or former coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing for my opinion. As long as Greg Tester is in SWVA and not the Head Coach of some team in football, it's well worth the call/well worth the attempt. Man simply knows to much about pigskin. He's going to do well whatever the school is. For Lebanon fans that may know, whatever happened to Scott Allen, the great football player and basketball player that was on those Lebanon State Teams in the early 90's? Didn't he go into coaching/education? FoxTrot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree it's a rebuild, but the program has potential. Coach Webb, reworked their youth program to make it more competitive. Their JV went undefeated and played a wide open offense that was fun to watch. They've got 16 returning seniors with good athletes, and a stud QB moving up to varsity. They're also the biggest or one of the biggest 1A schools in the state. I would think a coach would jump that opportunity, what do they have to lose if it doesn't work? And if it does work out, then the coach has made a good name for themselves. If a coach doesn't want to come because it's a hard job, then the Pioneers are better off without them.

The change made the youth programs much more competitive. He didn't produce a lot of wins, but that change will pay off over time. In some cases it may already have. The JV team finished undefeated this past season. It was the 1st group to go through the new youth program. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwvaOG 600 Report Share Posted February 7, 2022 Lebanon has the real chance of becoming a dominant 1A football program. They are also perfectly located to poach the occasional Honaker and/or Castlewood player. They obviously have the blueprint with their baseball team. If they are already engaged in building consistency and structure at the youth level they are well on their way. Daddy ball at the youth level erodes a program’s progress significantly. And this region is known for some youth Daddy ball. ghos88t, Pioneer and BandanaVTDavis4321 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
