Chesapeake Head Coaching Search

Im sure he is a good assit Coach, Ive heard hes a nice guy as well. What is the discussion even about? His best year was 5-6?!?!
Enough said.
Change was way over due

Cody Carter at Huntington High would be an excellent choice.

[Ovcguy1974]

I’d like to seem them pluck a Fairland guy or even a Portsmouth guy. These programs year in and year out are hard nosed football teams. Getting a guy from one of these programs would be huge. They could bring that winner mentality back the peake which is long over due.

Heard that Harley Estep of Ashland Blazer is interested in this job, He is an assistant under Chad Tackett, he would be a great choice.

I figured this thread would have more activity. Any news?

I know that it was posted formally last week. Multiple Chesapeake School Board Members posted it and shared it on their facebook pages and to social media with the formal posting. I haven’t heard any names yet tho.

Peake can be a good job for the right guy. They have great buy in at the youth league level. The school supports the program with the Peake Performance Program P3 they have great facilities too. I really think this is a much better job than people might realize. Coach Knipp did a really nice job leading the program and putting stuff in place for Peake to be able to win he was dedicated and committed to making sure the kids were training and the right guy can come in and build off that. Good luck to Peake in the search

I was able to attend every home game this year and catch 1-2 away games in the internet. Definitely been a lot of attitude problems the last 2-3 years. A lot of unsportsmanlike conducts, and a lot of silly penalties. When I speak discipline I’m not just talking about acting out, I’m also talking about being a discipline football player who can play fundamentally sound and discipline football. I didn’t see much discipline football this year either. To see a poster wonder why Chesapeake decided to move on is wild. They lost TWENTY FOUR conference games in a row, also their 5 huge wins this year were all against teams with sub .500 records, three of which only had 1 win all year, ZERO of them made the playoffs, not to mention Chesapeake Football was a healthy football program during the Phil Davis and Andy Clark eras. This era unfortunately has been hard to watch, and not healthy in the slightest. Also the majority of the weight lifting was done by the P3 program which is ran by volunteers, most of which are not coaches. The new coaching staff will definitely have to pour a new foundation.

You have no clue of what you don’t know. Ask Andy Clark what he thinks of this nonsense. Rick Clark has been part of this program for many years. Ask him what he thinks. Dime a dozen you have your own agenda. You support a decision that hurt this program. Remember that

My only agenda is to see Chesapeake Football be relevant and compete again! Not sure why this is being spun in to some personal agenda nonsense. The only info you really need is the record from the last 5 years to make an educated assessment that change was needed. Have a wonderful thanksgiving Purpleby2

I spoke to Harley and he said this is not true. He has no interest in the job.
I sent a message to Matt from Harley about this.

Chesapeake historically was consistently relevant under Coach Davis-not before or since.
This isn’t a great job.

Andy Clark had the program pretty relevant year-in and year-out….

[Jonjon]

Any official names yet?

I have heard one name as a rumor here in Proctorville that I think would be a huge move.

The Peake job should be a good job. The P3 program they have built in with the school is great. I know Coach Knipp had the kids following a workout program they were working with AP Prep everything is in place for this to be a good job.

Will the new coach be able to put in his own scheme using different sets and formations if so I think Peake attracts a few guys that could be solid there.

Coach Knipp I think did a nice job stabilizing the program worked his butt off to win and do it the right way. I am sure he is disappointed with the results wasn’t for a lack of effort or care for the kids I would consider him one of the good guys in this area coaching high school football in the tri state

No one wants him except you! The kids don’t either. Not talking about knipp.

With the BOE electing not to renew the current coaching staff, where do the Panthers turn now?

What are the football teams numbers like? What's a typical class participation number? Do they have enough athletes and football minds kids to be good?
I'm curious to know if this is a good job that was not coached well or was it a community that overestimates the quality of athelet that's actually there.

Decent facilities. Seem to be some athletes that play basketball. That doesn’t mean they would play football. Not sure this is a great job but who knows.

The benefits of an outside coach looking at it is- low expectations, nice field, weak conference and a weak out of conference schedule.

Very true of what youve said. Basketball is the sport at Chesy. Football is just football at that school
