If that's who 1 in Stripes was talking about then Snake is 💯 % not leaving Graham. I mean no disrespect to the Blue Tornado but why would he leave a program where they've earned two state championships since he came there in 2018 to take over a 0-10 program? He wouldn't. I'm under the impression he really likes it there and they like him. Richlands needs someone totally new in my opinion. CPF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest letting the School Board Supervisor of Secondary Education be the coach, after all he thinks he knows more about coaching football than anyone else, so let him show everyone how it is done.

Tarter just got the blame for it all. That's the problem when the HC doesn't have full authority to choose his assistants. The assistants don't feel the need to be loyal to the HC and it's a pi..... game to see who can out coach the HC rather than all being supportive. How quickly they seem to forget what the word assist truly means. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixcat 2,934 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 Jack Turner (somehow) landed a college coaching job. He's not coming back to high school. Never seen anyone fail up the way he has. SWVAgridiron and Cousin_Hoyt 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen anyone fail up the way he has. It's really impressive how he pulled it off. Turner is a technique guy and assertive. Stinespring at Tech was like this. They aren't strategic thinkers and certainly need to stay away from scheming and x's and o's. They are technique guys. How to block, how to tackle, how to rotate the hips, leverage, etc. They have no business in the strategic part of things because bad things happen.

BandanaVTDavis4321 1,718 Report Share Posted November 8, 2023 I don't know if I would clean house Tru Blu. Not saying that approach is wrong, but a guy like Breeding could be super, super valuable. Has excellent technique knowledge for backs, blocking, cutting, etc. A Head Coach's critical thing must be the Coordinators. That's the Brains of the operation. Sometimes, the HC is also the coordinator of O or D, but if you can get a guy that knows something about O or D where he could be the coordinator on O or D, and he has the brain power and humility to have someone on the opposite side of the ball to coordinate, you get wins. You need 2 guys with brains, scheming knowledge on staff. The Head Coach needs a specialty (either O or D, and he needs 1 more brain guy on O or D. All the rest....you need technique and discipline guys. That's the formula in my opinion. Tru Blue72 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
