Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted February 28 Report Posted February 28 6 minutes ago, PlayActionPass said: Head Coaches do NOT leave schools after back 2 back 10 win seasons if they believe the talent is there to do it for a 3rd time in a row. You better be uber talented at every other position if you are starting a FRESHMAN QB at the 4A level or above. If not, then you are probably not set up for immediate success. I ran outta likes. +1! (I have to add in: problems within the administration would cause them to leave, I've personally seen it in this area few years ago) PlayActionPass 1 Quote

Administration can make even the most LOYAL coach head for the hills. Quote

He will benefit greatly from the addition of Jr and Dayton could be very very good very quickly. Especially with Prieto getting a jump start on installing his system by starting on March 4. Fun times in bronco land!! Good analysis- Quote
Matthew328 Posted February 29 Report Posted February 29 6 hours ago, Rez Ipsa said: This is huge. The difference in Crosby when he was there was immediate and obvious. Dayton is going to take a massive step forward and make that district a lot more interesting. One question: Lake Worth was 10-3 the season before he showed up, with a 6-5 (first round playoff exit) in his one season there. Obviously, a season is just one season, but that’s a significant step back from the year earlier. Any thought or inside info on that year? Graduated a lot of talent? Totally new system? A few things from Lake Worth 1) their top returning player who was the district MVP transferred out during the summer (was ruled ineligible and didnt play his senior year) 2) Prieto was hired the Friday before Memorial Day, tough to really implement things getting hired that late Red Boyou and Rez 1 1 Quote

Hancok then Nations both incompetent assistant coaches from the Stewart era. Then coach Ware ( buddy of Jeff Nation ,assistant coach New Caney) the best of the three but half assed it his last year since he had another job lined up. navydawg31 and Red Boyou 2 Quote
Red Boyou Posted February 29 Report Posted February 29 Sure, Hancock, Nations and Ware. navydawg31 1 Quote

IMO what success he did have was because of the remnants from the Stewart era. No one wanted to play for him (as was shown in his next job) so it was going downhill. But you got your opinion I got mine…… to each their own. jayhawk 1 Quote

Old Ape Posted March 4 Report Posted March 4 So basically Prieto Chunked Crosby the duece and then turned up in DAYTON less than a year later????? Is this how I'm reading this? Quote

Is this how I'm reading this? I can only speculate but it sure seems curious. doesn't it? He could have a vendetta and a score to settle with certain individuals there. Remember this is a guy who wants to stick his thumb in the eye of others at times. He shows little restraint. He might be jumping up and down and spitting on someones turf soon. It would be quite interesting to see how that would be percieved. Or maybe not, maybe it is all just a coincidence and nothing more. Its 50/50 at this point. Certainly its a storyline to keep everyone amused through the offseason! Quote

Is this how I'm reading this? Perhaps he wants to prove that the Red nation messed up. Or maybe he’s a football coach that wants to succeed in a program that has struggled… to be kind. At any rate it looks like Dayton has landed a prize. Quote

Don't know this Geoff McCracken hopefully he's a temp AD - really doesn't matter though if its HC/AD or Assistant AD/HC as long as the money is good! -if little Jerry's dad is happy, I'm happy!
