I remember when Marietta was in the SEOAL and there 7th 8th 9th always had good teams in football. Usually were at the top of league play, but when they hit varsity they didn't do so well.

Yep, you just never know either way. Sometimes it's good but I never did agree on lower grades performance. By the time they reach the big dance on Friday nights, they have Seniors, juniors and sophs mixed together anyways. Some even play freshmen.

A lot of things come into play on how a player progresses as they go up the levels. I have seen boys in Jr. High that could not walk and chew gum at the same time become men by the time they are seniors and are all state and heading to college to play ball. One good indicate of the possible potential is to look at the mom and dad and what kind of athlete there were or how big they are. Also older siblings can tell a story also.

Yes by all means if his daddy was a good QB we need to make Junior the QB, and if brother Johnny was a good LB then little brother Jimmy should be put at LB cause they are always the same. On the other hand if dad didn't play then let's run Junior off cause he clearly can't ever be any good if dad didn't play. If brother Jimmy was bad then let's don't waste time on little brother Sammy cause he'll be bad too. :shock:

PoCat,

From what I've seen of your writing the award you gave me is minuscule compared to the outpouring of awards you have certainly earned for asinine posts. But to answer your question, my "resentment" stems from years of coaching with buffoons who think we should decide the abilities of players based on their lineage rather than performance, and of dealing with whiny aszz parents who expect the same. :mrgreen:

At this point, I think we need our own shortlist of candidates for this job. It seems the powers that be have forgotten about the approaching football season

I would assume they will wait months to hire a new b-ball coach as well.

I mean he should have for off of the court stuff. He should have been let go a long time ago.

RV likes to move on from coaches a little too quick IMO. Hopefully he gets a chance to turn everything around (on and off the court).

Well coaches need to behave appropriately both on and off of the court, or they shouldn't be coaching.

I haven't heard anything official yet but an insider said it should happen. I think he knows the game but from what I've heard he has had problems dealing the players.

Yes they do like to fire coaches too quick without giving them time to build a program.

Would it not be positive to hire a football coach and have him start putting the program together? Are they waiting for Saban to leave Alabama?

From my understanding, they have chosen their candidate. Not sure of who it is. Someone I know that applied said they got a call yesterday thanking them for interviewing and that they got their candidate after a long, extensive search process.
