Good luck Coach Davis.     May the success you had at Strong be even greater at Waldron.

From one Bulldog team to another.

So, Spring Practices are upon us and Waldron has a Coach.

What kind of offense does Coach Davis run?

On offense/defense thread - flexbone/ 4-3. etc...

Any info?

Heard mention he is a supporter of FCA!  Excellent organization IMO.

I hope he tells Waldron fans about FF or otherwise we might get bored! ;D

He will not run at Waldron anything remotely resembling what he ran at Strong.

For obvious reasons.

So, why don't you enlighten us Coach Kitchens?  You did afterall Coach at Strong yourself as a softball coach. 

We all are aware of the player Kenneth Dixon but what are you referring to?

I was assistant football coach at Strong in 2008 and 2009.   

The teams Strong fielded over the last few years would in all likelihood have blown right through the best that Waldron could put on the field during those same years.

That said,   massively different types of player athletes.

To cite one example.     Strong has had speed to burn for years.    Waldron times their 40s with a sun dial (or so I've been told).   

Of course speed isn't everything.    As recently as 2005 we had two of the slowest teams in 2A playing for the state title.

Pain in my side thus Dayton Kitchens was born........... ;D

Who told you Waldron times their 40s with a sun-dial?  know any kids at Waldron?  I don't.  So, I think that comment is unfair.

Positive PR is just not something you excel at is it? 

"Wish even greater success at Waldron than at Strong." Huh?  Really?  You call yourself his friend?  Bet $$$ you sent your resume in at Strong...

Where did Joan of Arc go?  The 1 who was going to save Waldron..

I would think IMO that it is just important right now to support Coach Davis 100% at this time, and hope that he can double Waldron's wins from last yr whatever they were. Plus gain the trust of his "team".

One of the coaches in that conference made that comment at the coaching clinic a year or two ago.     I just thought it was funny.    It could apply to a number of football teams.    Not every team has speed you  know.

And sure I support Coach Davis 100%.    I always have.     As I make a point of telling people,  if I had any friends, he would be my best one.

As for sending a resume to Strong?   If they open it up for applications.     Sure.   If I have to.

Ok I may step on some toes here but oh well. I hope coach Davis realizes he isn't in strong anymore and Kenneth Dixon isn't back there to run the ball anymore. I wish him well and hopes he can turn this around but he the best rb from the state the past 2 seasons which is why he won 20 games. So if he is the perfect fit, give him time Waldron. Good luck Coach Shane Davis.

I'm quite sure he knows he'll likely never coach another Kenneth Dixon as he could be considered a once in a lifetime type of player...same way I feel about Fredi Knighten.  You rarely if ever get to coach a kid with that combination of skills.

Coach Davis is well aware of what he is getting in to and he welcomes the challenge.  I wish him and Waldron the best of luck except when they play Coach Weaver and the Mena Bearcats! :)

Congrats to coach Davis on his new position of head coach at Waldron. May his time there be memorable and fun. I personally think he will do just fine in Waldron with the kids he has. All of the truly good coach's adapt to the players they have and mold a great system over time that fits with them. The one thing that will be different for him will be the talent level that exist at the 4A level that was not at the 2A level. This is due to just more kids available to pick from and play against.

Coach Davis needs to start winning the players and the community over right now to set the foundation for a long term success. If Coach Davis is a member and brings FCA to this program that is a positive that will help the community as a whole too.

If I'm not mistaken I believe we had one of the fastest kids in the state last year, who started both on offense and defense. And before that we had a QB who couldn't be caught on the field.

That is great.    It was a couple of years ago and it was a coach from Mena or Mansfield if I recall correctly.

That's funny, of course they want to borrow waldron's sun-dial.  haha! (just kidding)

Waldron had speed back in 2003 I believe when they won conference championship. not for sure on that but maybe ANewLegacy knows?

Well I know Heber had the fastest player in the 4A Ethan Bly who was the state champion in the  100 and 200. He played wide receiver , running back and D-back last year and will be back this year too.

As with any team speed alone does not win games you need some size up front to go with that or your speed never gets anywhere.

Have no idea.  I only learned about the urhometownsports website a couple of weeks ago on the basketball thread.  Apparently GoodBetterBetz does that and he had posted the brackets for the state tournament, so I thought since he was from waldron he would post on the new coach there and I guessed right.  He has a good independent webpage of Waldron. It is seperate I noted from Waldron Schools.  He does it with his own funding and advertisers and expresses his own views and not the views of the school. ( i read it at the bottom of his webpage today)

Does anyone know when Coach Davis will move to Waldron?

Assits, are they going to run spring practices etc?

Any word on what the players thought of the hire and are the excited to get started?
It's going to be a great opportunity I think for them.

I decided to wait till mid-season to cast my vote, think they could be 1 to make some improvement this yr. IMO

Guess Coach V. doesn't want to congratulate Waldron just yet.  But considering they are rivals I can understand why.  He maybe waiting to see what the season holds 1st ;D

Thank you for the kind words I appreciate it. I have talked to Coach Davis several times, I do not know when they plan to make the formal announcement or introduction, but as soon as I find out I'll let you know. I do know that Coach Davis and his wife plan on spending spring break in Waldron, introducing himself, shaking hands and meeting the residents of Waldron. I can not express how excited and optimistic I am. Looking forward to great things!

Ahhhh yes, the "Meeting of the Minds".  I might be able with all my old retired knowledge to even lead you in the right direction ;D but Coach. V. is nowhere around.  I hope I haven't made him mad but we have to have him at the meeting for the Mansfield side if the plan's going to work. ;) 

Bearcat stadium huh? Well, I heard that Mena didn't do as well last year as in yrs past, had a hard time getting things going.  What's this year promise to hold?

Post by: whippersnapper on March 07, 2012, 11:47:20 am
Yes I understand that you need to evaluate your players first. But every coach has an offense and defense he is more accustomed to and has an idea of what they would LIKE to run.
Diehard, I said it during the season that Waldron had a lot of fight in them this last season. They lost to Dover by a td and didnt get mercy ruled by Boonville. As for the last game between mena and Waldron. Well we had no fight to us in the game. The players just knew it was Waldron and that they would win. I hope that mindset changes though. We had a soph at QB that game and he was rattled the WHOLE night and I think we threw somewhere like 10 pass attempts with him. This years game I hope will be different, mena is looking to be a very good team. But you never know till the season starts

I credit Coach Langston, Strong's high school principle, for their success. After Strong's loss to Parkers Chapel, Strong put Langston in control of the offensive play calling and Coach Jackson as their defensive coordinator. I caught wind that Their "head coach" was going to lose his job and that was right after the PC loss. No telling now after they brought a championship home.

I had heard Strong used Dixon primarily from the running back spot until the PC loss and then moved him to the single wing QB position after that.  Is that right?

Quote from: Hardwood00 on December 15, 2011, 01:37:04 pmYes, that is correct. Langston came in and changed up the formation and plays.

Has he told you what he may be looking to run offensively and defensively

Quote from: Hardwood00 on December 14, 2011, 11:34:45 pm
I credit Coach Langston, Strong's high school principle, for their success. After Strong's loss to Parkers Chapel, Strong put Langston in control of the offensive play calling and Coach Jackson as their defensive coordinator. I caught wind that Their "head coach" was going to lose his job and that was right after the PC loss. No telling now after they brought a championship home.

???   Are you saying Coach Davis has nothing to do with winning the state title at Strong?


Or is this an outrageous attempt to get back at a Great Coach for quitting Strong?

Either way, it's pretty tacky to use other peoples quotes and not your own if you have something to say son, just say it.  were listening

I never implied Davis had nothing to with the championship and I have no control over what you infer from reading posts. 

As far as the quotes, I was taught giving credit for a quote was preferential to plagiarism or hearsay.  H00's posts seemed like they might shed some light on the offense question in the thread.  It does appear H00 thinks Langston and Jackson contributed greatly to Strong's success after the PC loss.

Small classification coaches (and that includes 4A coaches) are subject to changing jobs on a pretty regular basis to move up the profession.  A 4A and down program that can keep a good one for any period of time is lucky.  Can't blame a guy for moving up the ladder.

Davis won 20 games and a state title in his two years as head coach at Strong.  That's what the record book will show.  That same book will show a very talented Kenneth Dixon was a junior and senior during those years.

H00 was not the only person who said the loss to PC at Strong in 2011 was followed by some major tension and subsequent changes in the program.  Only Davis can say if those changes played any part in his decision to leave the Bulldog program.  I applaud Davis for his gracious quotes in the article the local paper ran publicising his resignation.

Glad you cleared that up.

To set the record straight bleudog, I didn't infer anything.  I asked you a question.

Do you expect an olddog to believe that you did NOT mean to imply anything?  bull.

You meant it or why else would you drag that up to post on a 4A thread (where Davis was just hired)  that has nothing to do with the 2A thread from where your from?  I can understand sharing info. I also, can understand someone being jealous but what I don't understand is how you feel that posting that to a school that has been down for a few yrs. is helpful to a bunch of young kids who are desperately seeking a New Coach to come in and help them.  Coaches are Mentor's as well as Coaches.  To try to blemish that in the eyes of a child is cruel.  Whatever your intentions. IMO

Be sure and come back on here at the end of Waldron's season and see the improvement they will have made.  Give him some time, and his record will continue to speak for itself.

Coach Davis has a long road ahead of him in my opinion. I was at a 7 on 7 a few of summers ago and heard coach Rhetman talking about his numbers and when two-a-days started. He told a group of coaches that he had only about 30% of his players that showed up for summer workouts, and only about 60 % of his players on the first day of two-a-days. He said the rest of his team normally showed up on the first day of school. He was ask why that was and his explanation made sense. He said that most kids in Waldron were farm kids and had to work during the summer and alot of them were just plain poor and had to have summer jobs if they wanted any spending money. I can see that in Waldron. Asked if he disciplined them for missing he said flat out, NO. He said that he couldn't due to the number of kids and the fact that he would not get backed. If he desciplined all of them then they would not have very good numbers. This pans out folks if you look at it. Waldron always has great numbers in junior high but seem to taper off in Senior high. Just what I overheard one day...take it for what it is worth... :)

Just three years before the school closed for good,  the football coach at Altheimer (hope I spelled it right) couldn't get his players to practice until school began for several reasons.   

So he didn't even bother with two a days.

He canceled all his nonconference games,  played a 7 game regular season, finished the regular season 6-1 (losing only to Totty's Rison) and advancing to the third round of the playoffs, finishing 8-2 overall......with only 16 players on the team.

Many coaches stand sadly on the sidelines year after year hoping one day they will have the "athletes" that fit their system and they can win with.

Dayton,  I have to say that made 100% sense. 

Waldron is not the only school to deal with rural farm kids having to have a job.  It happen's at several school districts across AR,OK,MS. etc...

Personally,  and perhaps I'm too old to understand players today, but to me players that worked during the summer could be a real asset.   I think they are likely to be further along in maturity, self discipline, and understanding teamwork.

We all know that is true in rural areas, but don't you think waldrons losing record played a role in the numbers declining?  I know some kids begin to chose 1 sport over another as they get older too.

Bottom line is this, all the elite programs that win championships work during the summer. The game has changed. If you want to win championships and stay at or around the top, in the playoffs year after year, you work during the summers, your players attend two-a-days and they are disciplined if they miss and don't play if they don't attend all the functions unless they are made up. Greenwood, PA, Southside, Fayetteville, Bentonville, Junction City, El Dorado, Charleston, etc., all work during the summer and off season. Waldron will NEVER, EVER win anything until this mentality changes down there. Now, I am not saying that coach Davis can't do this, just saying it is gonna be a hard road. we had the same problem at Mansfield. When Gill got here there wasn't a summer program, two-a-days were attended by about 75% of the team. Yeah that first season after the rules were laid down we had about 25 players down from 48...but we had 25 that wanted to play football and it grew from there.
You have a system and either kids play in your system or they don't. You don't change your system to fit your kids. You might change your play book a little to accommodate a certain kids abilities or lack thereof, but never do you change your practice habits because kids don't come to practice...

Greenwood, Southside, Fayetteville, Bentonville, etc. are more of an "in Town" kid elite group.

Bigger County, more higher paying jobs, more tax $ to go to school athletic programs.  It is hard to compare that to Waldron, Mansfield, Mena, Danville etc.  This is "rural" areas.

Charleston is an exception.  However, Waldron I believe has the furthest busing route in the state of Arkansas.  Kid's get on the bus at sun-up and some literally don't get home till sun-down.  That is in part to all the surrounding little communities having to drive or be bused into Waldron.  Or was the case many yrs ago. 

The only way some 2 a day practices might even be possible is to have a bus go get them.  Gas is expensive and a lot of those kids parents work at Tyson, many only have 1 rig to drive.  So, it is different circumstances that lead to the kid's not being able to play FB, not because they don't want too.  IMO  Unless, things have changed down in Waldron over several yrs ago.

Tyson, the school, and walmart are the biggest employer's in Scott Co or were.  I don't know if Waldron would even consider busing kid's in the summer?  Pay of a driver, fuel, mileage on the buses etc.  That could be costly to a school district.  I understand holding the kids accountable for practices and missed practices.  "in town" school kids and schools don't even have to worry with that. $$$, booster club, players etc.  not even close to G.

Is this really the issue?  or was it the commitment?

I am curious to know if volleyball has the same problem in Waldron?   They practice in the summer don't they.  Is the numbers good for Volleyball?

How about Band practice's ?  They still have a band right?  Is it an issue for them too?

When Gill got here there wasn't a summer program, two-a-days were attended by about 75% of the team. Yeah that first season after the rules were laid down we had about 25 players down from 48...but we had 25 that wanted to play football and it grew from there.
You have a system and either kids play in your system or they don't. You don't change your system to fit your kids. You might change your play book a little to accommodate a certain kids abilities or lack thereof, but never do you change your practice habits because kids don't come to practice...

Good Point on Football in the past years but had to edit because in doing research found that Volleyball in Waldron is successful, on the sports website it showed a state tournament bracket for Waldron.

Coach Davis has a long road ahead of him in my opinion. I was at a 7 on 7 a few of summers ago and heard coach Rhetman talking about his numbers and when two-a-days started. He told a group of coaches that he had only about 30% of his players that showed up for summer workouts, and only about 60 % of his players on the first day of two-a-days. He said the rest of his team normally showed up on the first day of school. He was ask why that was and his explanation made sense. He said that most kids in Waldron were farm kids and had to work during the summer and alot of them were just plain poor and had to have summer jobs if they wanted any spending money. I can see that in Waldron. Asked if he disciplined them for missing he said flat out, NO. He said that he couldn't due to the number of kids and the fact that he would not get backed. If he desciplined all of them then they would not have very good numbers. This pans out folks if you look at it. Waldron always has great numbers in junior high but seem to taper off in Senior high. Just what I overheard one day...take it for what it is worth... :)

Just three years before the school closed for good,  the football coach at Altheimer (hope I spelled it right) couldn't get his players to practice until school began for several reasons.   

So he didn't even bother with two a days.

He canceled all his nonconference games,  played a 7 game regular season, finished the regular season 6-1 (losing only to Totty's Rison) and advancing to the third round of the playoffs, finishing 8-2 overall......with only 16 players on the team.

Many coaches stand sadly on the sidelines year after year hoping one day they will have the "athletes" that fit their system and they can win with.

A real coach takes what he has,  adjusts to circumstances,  turns liabilities into assets, and goes to war.
Bottom line is this, all the elite programs that win championships work during the summer. The game has changed. If you want to win championships and stay at or around the top, in the playoffs year after year, you work during the summers, your players attend two-a-days and they are disciplined if they miss and don't play if they don't attend all the functions unless they are made up. Greenwood, PA, Southside, Fayetteville, Bentonville, Junction City, El Dorado, Charleston, etc., all work during the summer and off season. Waldron will NEVER, EVER win anything until this mentality changes down there.

True my fine feathered friend I read a great deal.

But have you been in the office of a real football coach lately?    I have.

They have more books on various phases of a football program.    Offensive line coaching,  defensive line coaching,  secondary coverages,  linebacking,   passing drills,  conditioning,  designing an off season program,   managing a football program.....than many teachers have in their classrooms.

I actually have some catching up to do.

I have only about 30 books on football coaching.

Nowhere.   I had hoped to get a head football coaching job this last year and I made it past the first round of candidate cut downs at a couple of schools.

apology accepted.


It all boils down to the work ethic, commitment etc. that a team put's forth in order to do what it takes to win.

They have to want it enough to do it.  They have to have a Coach to motiviate whatever type of kid they have standing in front of them everyday to get them to give 110%.  They also have to have support.    Basic Coaching 1 0 1. imo.

I don't have any question that Coach Davis has what it takes to be a great coach, but he can't do it alone. The community has to get behind him and support his moves, even if effects someone they are close to. Listen, just because "Little Johnny" was the starting Qb last year does not mean he will fit the new coaches system as a Qb. Maybe he moves him to WR or Safety. I have saw parents get all up in arms over stuff like this, then they tell their friends and their friends tell more friends and first thing you know...the coach is an idiot all over town. It's gonna happen at some point, I just hope the community supports the coaches decision and not the parents who are mad about it. Also, the boosters need to get with this guy now and show him some love. Davis is in a new town with no friends. He will need major support.

  I agree Coach V.  Booster Club needs to get involved ASAP!if they haven't yet.  I hate rumors, all they do is stir things up for No good.  I read on ur hometown sports baseball schedule that Waldron is in a baseball tournament over spring break that's away.  Shame most of the kids will be out of town if he is planning on spending Spring Break in Waldron.   Would be great opportunity to set some things up.  Maybe Waldron is planning too, i don't know.  where is GoodBetterBetz?

 I will never forget 1 time when I was a kid, standing with the team.  A gentleman passed by and asked " well boy's are you going to win?  A teamate answered " no, probably not".  The gentleman replied " well,  Why are you here? "  kid said " i like football"  gentleman said "I guess I better go back to the gate and ask for a refund".  The kid said,  Why?  The gentleman said because their is NO way you are going to win as long as you and your teamates believe you are going to lose.

Yes I understand that you need to evaluate your players first. But every coach has an offense and defense he is more accustomed to and has an idea of what they would LIKE to run.
Diehard, I said it during the season that Waldron had a lot of fight in them this last season. They lost to Dover by a td and didnt get mercy ruled by Boonville. As for the last game between mena and Waldron. Well we had no fight to us in the game. The players just knew it was Waldron and that they would win. I hope that mindset changes though. We had a soph at QB that game and he was rattled the WHOLE night and I think we threw somewhere like 10 pass attempts with him. This years game I hope will be different, mena is looking to be a very good team. But you never know till the season starts

I had a bleudog once, blue tick hound..........wasn't too bright.

I love jeopardy!  A person who has an intelligent brain and can think underpressure can be very useful to a football team in my experience.  Mastery of plays and execution on the field.  Quick Minded can often allow the players to access certain situations in order to defeat the opponent. The ultimate goal to WIN the GAME.   The mind is a beautiful thing in the levels of operations it has in Football an in everyday capacities such as academics.  One to excel and achieve the goal of becoming a Coach, Lawyer, Doctor, etc.

Maybe the bleudog you should seek is Blue's Clue's...............  ;)

Yes,
Joe Ehrmann, a former NFL football star and volunteer coach for the Gilman high school football team, teaches his players the keys to successful defense: penetrate, pursue, punish, love. Love? A former captain of the Baltimore Colts and now an ordained minister, Ehrmann is serious about the game of football but even more serious about the purpose of life. Season of Life is his inspirational story as told by Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Jeffrey Marx, who was a ballboy for the Colts when he first met Ehrmann.
Ehrmann now devotes his life to teaching young men a whole new meaning of masculinity. He teaches the boys at Gilman the precepts of his Building Men for Others program.

Also, Keeps it in perspective.   :)

Excellent book about perspective.  Here's the rest of the overview quote:

"........He teaches the boys at Gilman the precepts of his Building Men for Others program: Being a man means emphasizing relationships and having a cause bigger than yourself. It means accepting responsibility and leading courageously. It means that empathy, integrity, and living a life of service to others are more important than points on a scoreboard.

Decades after he first met Ehrmann, Jeffrey Marx renewed their friendship and watched his childhood hero putting his principles into action. While chronicling a season with the Gilman Greyhounds, Marx witnessed the most extraordinary sports program he'd ever seen, where players say "I love you" to each other and coaches profess their love for their players. Off the field Marx sat with Ehrmann and absorbed life lessons that led him to reexamine his own unresolved relationship with his father.

Season of Life is a book about what it means to be a man of substance and impact. It is a moving story that will resonate with athletes, coaches, parents -- anyone struggling to make the right choices in life."

To tie this post back to the title of this thread, here's an excerpt from page 53 of the book:

At a cookout after the scrimmage--family members included--this woman casually asked Biff (the head coach) how things were looking for the team.  How successful did he think the boys were going to be?

"I have no idea," Biff said.  "Won't really know for twenty years."

"Huh?"

She had been inquiring about the season.  This Season.  Biff was perfectly clear on that.  He was not trying to be cute with his response; he was trying to make a point.

"I won't really know how successful they're gonna be till they come back to visit in twenty years,"  Biff said.  "Then I'll be able to see what kind of husbands they are.  I'll be able to see what kind of fathers they are.  I'll see what they're doing in the community."




Marx has another football-based book that was also a good read:

I am all for books about Perspective.  I fully believe in the the bible and the Lord's word.  I support children at the upmost level that I can and in everyway that I can.  I have never said otherwise.

If you go back and look at 1 of my earlier post I said that Coach Davis was a supporter of FCA which stands for Fellowship of Christian Athletes.  It also states in his phone interview that he is a Youth Pastor.

So, I fail to see how that Waldron could of made a bad hire.  Coach Davis seems to incompass ALL the values that the school and parents could possibly want in leading their children.

bleudog, are you now trying to correct and do damage control for the post you mad earlier on who actually runs offence and defense?   Do not assume anything about anyone until they are given a chance.  He is a Coach yes, but he is also a man and none of us are perfect but we are forgiven.

You asked me if I was serious on my signature?  Yes.  It seems I have perspective and my signature states so.  Your signature bleudog list Football Championships.  Am I to interupt that as your perspective?    That would be judging would it not?  Have you ever been to Waldron and met any of the kids?   No.  Perspective is something they have.  They just need help with  having fun in football. imo    Time will be judge for Waldron.

I would also like to add that there is nothing wrong with Winning.  As long as you do it humbly and with dignity and grace.  Respect is earned not given.  Make no mistake there is no substitute for learning how to win a game and seeing the fruits of your labor come to fruition. Hard to lose all the time no matter what perspective you have. 

Ahhhh yes, geaux means "GO" Waldron.( had a friend who was cajun) :)

Never said he was a bad hire.  Not trying to do damage control.

Anyone familiar with the 2A-8 and Strong could tell you there was tension in the program after the loss to Parkers Chapel.  I was at the Norphlet game immediately after that loss and coaching reassignments were obvious.  Not saying they were right, not saying they were wrong.  Not saying those changes made any difference in the ultimate outcome of the rest of the season.  What did happend was Strong went undefeated after the PC loss, including getting a win over a JC team the Bulldogs had lost to earlier in the seaston, and earned a state championship the week after avenging that loss. 

Regardless of what Coach Davis accomplishes at Waldon, he will always be on record as the head coach of the team that won its last playoff game in 2011.  And as they say in the commercials, that's priceless. 

I wish Coach Davis the best at Waldron.  I will again applaud him for his gracious comments directed toward Strong when the article about his leaving was published in the local paper. 

I wish for the players at Wadron what I wish for all amateur athletes and something many kids have heard me say:  Do your best; play smart; have fun. 

And since it was you who brought up Waldron wins in your poll at the beginning of this thread, I'll help out and vote for Waldron to improve on last year's win total.

Looks like I am going to have to come clean on the poll.  The reason behind the poll is simple.  Kids do better when they see that people believe in them.  If they can see the numbers in a poll and know that people actually think they can Win they will start to change the image they have of themselves.  Mind over Loss.  IMHO. 

The mind can be a powerful tool especially when Waldron has not had the best records in Football.  SUPPORT was what I was trying to accomplish for Waldron.

Simply to BELIEVE in their self and in their team.  +1 for the vote!

I enjoyed season of life as well. His false manhoods are something every teenage boy should hear. A key determination in my opinion of a school and community's seriousness to turning around a football program is level of change. Hiring a new coach then telling him we can't do it your way cause this is the way it's always been done is a recipe for disaster. If you want a new coach, hire a new coach. If you want a new program, hire a new coach, let him hire his assistants, give him what he needs financially, stand up to community opposition so he doesn't have to, then get the crap out of the way. In a struggling program numbers will go down when a coach tries to do it right, with support, those numbers will rebound. Let the 10-12 graders cycle out and numbers will return.

When it came to football quotes, they didn't get much better than John McKay.  To paraphrase Bum Phillips (who was talking about Earl Campbell), "John McKay might not be in a class by himself, but in the class he's in it sure don't take long to call roll."  ;D

A few McKayisms:

"Intensity is a lot of guys that run fast."

"We didn't block real good but we made up for it by not tackling."

"Well, we've determined that we can't win at home and we can't win on the road. What we need is a neutral site."

"If you have everyone back from a team that lost ten games, experience isn't too important."

"Emotion is highly overrated in football. My wife Corky is emotional as heck but can't play football worth a dang." (that one lost a little punch thanks to the FF auto censor program)

"I'm in favor of it."  (when asked about the execution of his team)

Waldron will have to commit to Coach Davis' leadership and philosophy in order to be successful. Davis has a huge job ahead of him but will be successful if the community, administration, assistant coaches and players buy into the program. This will not be done over night but will take years. Those listed above will just have to give him time to turn the program into "His Program"!! If things go as planned this years 9th grade bunch will be championship contenders. I wish Coach Davis all the luck in the world and hope Waldron will give him 100% backing.

 In Waldron, L.R."Tom" Sawyer was a legendary football coach that won 87% of games during the 30's, 40's and 50's, and they would later name the football field after him.

In Waldron, L.R."Tom" Sawyer was a legendary football coach that won 87% of games during the 30's, 40's and 50's, and they would later name the football field after him.

Since then they have moved to another field. Does anyone know if the field is still named after him?
The old field is still named Sawyer Wright Field and that's where the pee wee football games are played now. The new field has not been officially named and is referred to as the New Bulldog Sports Complex.

Any word on how they looked?

I am going to guess that Waldron is busy getting the Football Program going.  (looks like the poll stands at double the wins! so far!)

Either way, I noticed on Betz website that he has teamed up with ArkansasVarsity.com & Luke Matheson to help bring Waldron Athletics to the fans thru Media! Glad to see it!  Sure hope, they keep FF posted as well!

Good Luck, and GO WALDRON!

Haven't heard how the offense is coming.  Only a few die hards post on waldron ::)

If Waldron can manage to beat Mansfield for the season opener it could provide a huge confidence lift for them.   It looks by reading the articles that Waldron is a young team, with I think it said only 2 returning starters.   So, as they say in fb this is the re-build phase but should have a payoff in a few yrs under Coach Davis new leadership.   

None the less, the fans in waldron need to go out, pack the stands and support those kids and new coach this yr.  imo

@betz- I understand, thanks for keeping us updated on Waldron.

After the loss to PC, Coach Davis was head coach in name only, he lost the kids, obviously they were a good team, they just had the wrong leader

I am all for books about Perspective.  I fully believe in the the bible and the Lord's word.  I support children at the upmost level that I can and in everyway that I can.  I have never said otherwise.

If you go back and look at 1 of my earlier post I said that Coach Davis was a supporter of FCA which stands for Fellowship of Christian Athletes.  It also states in his phone interview that he is a Youth Pastor.

So, I fail to see how that Waldron could of made a bad hire.  Coach Davis seems to incompass ALL the values that the school and parents could possibly want in leading their children.

bleudog, are you now trying to correct and do damage control for the post you mad earlier on who actually runs offence and defense?   Do not assume anything about anyone until they are given a chance.  He is a Coach yes, but he is also a man and none of us are perfect but we are forgiven.

You asked me if I was serious on my signature?  Yes.  It seems I have perspective and my signature states so.  Your signature bleudog list Football Championships.  Am I to interupt that as your perspective?    That would be judging would it not?  Have you ever been to Waldron and met any of the kids?   No.      Time will be judge for Waldron.

Never said he was a bad hire.  Not trying to do damage control.

Anyone familiar with the 2A-8 and Strong could tell you there was tension in the program after the loss to Parkers Chapel.  I was at the Norphlet game immediately after that loss and coaching reassignments were obvious.  Not saying they were right, not saying they were wrong.  Not saying those changes made any difference in the ultimate outcome of the rest of the season.  What did happend was Strong went undefeated after the PC loss, including getting a win over a JC team the Bulldogs had lost to earlier in the seaston, and earned a state championship the week after avenging that loss. 

Regardless of what Coach Davis accomplishes at Waldon, he will always be on record as the head coach of the team that won its last playoff game in 2011.  And as they say in the commercials, that's priceless. 

I wish Coach Davis the best at Waldron.  I will again applaud him for his gracious comments directed toward Strong when the article about his leaving was published in the local paper. 

I wish for the players at Wadron what I wish for all amateur athletes and something many kids have heard me say:  Do your best; play smart; have fun. 

And since it was you who brought up Waldron wins in your poll at the beginning of this thread, I'll help out and vote for Waldron to improve on last year's win total.

Well, I have to say that your statement supports bleudogs.  I have come to know a little more about bleu and he quite frankly seems to only state things he can back up.  With that said, it should play out to be a very interesting yr for the waldron bulldogs, and lets hope that Daivs is the leader for that team. 

All indications so far by articles posted is Yes, he is.  So, I along with bleudog(he wished him well too) still wish him the best of luck and success.  Always hard coming into a new town, making new friends, with rumors going round-n-round and gaining the players support.  I predict he will be just fine. 

Waldrons record couldn't really, at this point get any worse could it?    A few yrs into Davis's leadership will tell the tale.  Let's hope it is one for the record books. ;)

Thank you sir! Man you're good, I just did it last night and haven't even announced the changes yet. Thanks for your support it means a lot.

As for whether or not Coach Davis is control of this team, I can answer that, All of the coaches and players are behind him 100%. I've never seen unity on a team like this in the four years I've been here in Waldron and I'm pretty sure the majority don't look at or care what is written on here. We all have a past. His time is now for Waldron and we will support him in that way! We have had nothing but positive come out of the hire of Davis, now we just need to turn it into Wins! We are headed in the right direction!

Hey guys. I'm reading Hooten's, seems like the players being talked about as contributors are kinda of light in the pockets. That being said are there any/many potential players that are standing aside waiting on a new coach?

I see one of Waldrons strengths according to Hooten's is linemen, am I missing something?

No, just like to think I do. ;D   Which can get you into alot of trouble here on FF.  It can have it's place at times and can be fun....

My apologies.  Going to mellow out from this day forward.  Nothing to be gained by being a smart-alec.  Time for reflection of friends.  GLion Alum taught me that (along with a few others  ;)).  Going to be myself, and quit trying to 1 up the next FF poster.

For the spider guests, I thought I would let you know how the poll is turning out.

It currently stands at this time with 4 games leading at 45% of the votes. 

0 games-5 votes (12.5%)
2 games-6 votes (15%)
same as-6  votes (15%)
4 games- 18 votes (45%)
5+ games- 5 votes (12.5%)

All in all I would say, Waldron you are on your way.  The numbers for pee-wee football the foundation for the program stands at an all time high this year at 140!  The senior and junior high numbers are doubled and all the coaches are devoted 110% to the kids.  All the hard work being put in, will eventually turn into wins.    GoodBetterBetz,  thanks for posting and for the articles that allowed me to come up with the totals for the Bulldogs. 

I think I have filled my quota for posts and will stop at 2001!( for now ;D)  What a great time making new friends and being allowed to be a apart of many schools traditions.  Now it's Time to get ready for some Football!   8)

I think if Waldron doesn't win this scrimmage it's going to be a very lonnnnng season for them!

In seriousness, it will be a good learning game probably.  Danville is a tough team, they went to the playoffs a couple of yrs ago against Magazine, and have always been pretty good, and it is usually a close game between Waldron and Danville.

Coach Davis and his team just need the experience, practice and learn to develop as team 1st and go for them there.

Yeah, that would sound about right.   ::)

Back then, the Hillbillies were much like what Dover is now--a usually sub-par program that would suddenly erupt with incredible brilliance once every several years.  It wasn't until the '70s that Ozark would have success more frequently, and it would take two more decades before success could reasonably be demanded every season.

Sure would be nice to have Waldron be able to return to such a dominate team.  I am really thinking that with the Coach Davis this can be a reality once again in the future.   Will take time,  just hope some are willing to wait and give him a chance.


Can't believe Coach V. hasn't made a pick on the Waldron vs Mansfield game coming up!    I think it will prove to be a good game and allow the Bulldogs to grow as a team.  Go Waldron Beat Mansfield!

Thanks for posting about Waldron!   Finally, I thought I was the only one alive on this thread... ;D

Like I said, the Bulldogs are learning and working to play as a team.  New aspect of Football for them, the Coaches etc.  Danville- folks is a good team this year.  They will more than likely go to the final playoff round. 

People are really going to have to back this Coach and team and give them a chance.  Davis is a hard worker and very dedicated from what I hear.   I have heard that they are more together with the basic plays, routes etc. and functioning better overall in general.  I also hear that he has brought a new sense of energy and excitement with players and has really bonded with all of them.  Like a team.   

What's that saying, Rome wasn't built in a day!   Be Patient.

Thanks for the kind words about Danville it's going to tough for them to get that far in the playoffs in 3a if they were still in 2a they probably win it all but as far as Waldron goes I think if they stick with that coach a couple of years they will be good maybe not this year but I think by the end of the season this year they could start see a difference and some improvement.Its just going to take some time and effort.

Is Waldron any better at covering the pass?   sounded like that is something they have struggled with for a few yrs and this scrimmage against Danville.

Interview said Mansfield has 2 240 pnd lineman, a good running bck and are a underated team.   

Concerning.......but Coach needs time and I would even say maybe another Coach he could bring in to help out considering Waldron is a 4A school would even be better possibly. 

Should add that Waldrons Stats (yes stats) for the Scrimmage looked very good as opposed to yrs past which I would predict is do to Davis's new leadership.  Positive's keep happening!!!!

Waldron, Davis Want to Find Winning Ways.  That is the title of an article ran in yesterdays Special edition of Football Preview 2012 in the Times Record by Bobby Swofford. ( It featured all area schools as well)   

Wish it was online so I could share it or if I knew how to scan and post like some other person I know ::) it would be even better! ;D  But I don't so here is one of many positive comments from Coach Davis and how he is seeing things being turned around for The Waldron Bulldogs.  Davis spoke highly of the Bulldogs.  Waldron's youth is on their side and they have lots of upcoming potential.

"The big thing that has encouraged me the most is how hard they have worked," Davis said.  We are going to share the football," Davis said.

"We are bringing back the triple option attack so you ned plenty of guys back there".  Carpenter,Igle he noted as the fastest along with Brumbelow who runs the ball really hard at full back position.  He stated that Dakota Wagnor (D-Wag) will lead the offense at qb. Davis noted several sophmores who will see action on the defensive side as well, along with Johnston who won out the job of center in the spring.   Sr. Bryson Betz was also mentioned to be the big play threat for the Bulldogs' offense.

Waldron was also featured along with all area schools in a 4-4A Capsule in the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette yesterday, by Lane Kramer.  It was featured as Northwest Arkansas Football.  NWAONLINE.COM   Section K.   fyi. ;)

Still don't know how to post actual articles but here is what Davis said.

Quoting Coach Davis: "When you've been beat down as long as Waldron has, you've got a mind-set you've got to overcome that you can't win.  As much as we'd like to go undefeated, we'll be happy with four or five wins, just something to show improvement and that we're turning things around."

Even though Mena is in no way, shape, or form a Bulldog ;D  and is strictly a bearcat I will for a friend post this for you.  Times Record...

(Odd as it is, nevertheless)the title for Mena's article is "Mended Mena Out For Redemption"  (quite catchy but like the Bulldogs better. ;D)

When he came back we were very, very good on offense," Mena coach Jeff Weaver said.  "He is so explosive but only played about five games.  He fought his way back (from the injury) and was competitive.  He's a left handed qb but actually completed two passes with his right had so that shows how athletic he is." said of Austin Warren who had to have knee surgery."  Cameron Robinson threw for more than 800 yrds and 7 tds.  and Sage Kesterson will be battling for back up as a sophmore.

It mentioned several players (quite lengthy and detailed)  ::) ;) but one stood out as T.J. Bingham who returns at defensive end ( after battling a concussion), Weaver said of Senior Malachi McGee "He is just a talented kid"  "He may have to play some defense and offense".   (for full article please see the Football Preview 2012 insert by Southwest Times record)



Arkansas Democrat-Gazette  by Lane Kramer 

Quoting Coach Weaver " We're going to focus really hard on playing at a fast pace on both sides of the ball.  We want to be able to push the tempo."

The Shane Davis Vision is one of the many articles highlighting the New Brand of Bulldog Football taking place in Waldron.

I hope that The Waldron News will post one of the articles online because Waldron Alum Don Jones did a great job featuring The Waldron Football Program, Band, and the many kids who have gave a 110% this summer.

The news article featured the many obstacles that range from conditioning, size, numbers and confidence.  Davis echoed that building the program from the foundation is the key and that it will take years to achieve.   Davis started the fundamental foundation work that began this summer with his conditioning program.

GOOD LUCK WALDRON.

Hang Tough Kids!  Coach Davis is moving the ball and chains forward.  I know the score doesn't represent all the hardwork and effort that Waldron(you) put in, but Waldron actually had more 1st downs last night than they have had in years. 

The motivation of the team it's coming!  All things are a go and the fan's need to realize that he is RE-BUILDING A PROGRAM. 

To be fair to Coach Davis, He needs support and quite frankly in my opinion you need to let him bring in a Coach that he wants to help him.  (get those kids some PB&J's to eat, Waldron is a YOUNG TEAM) 

Granted, it was a hard loss but Mansfield is going to be one of those sweeper teams, they are good.  Who ever #24 and #8 are Charleston if you're reading this- you best stop them.

Good Luck Waldron and Coach Davis-  You have got SUPPORT!!!!   NOW LET'S GO!

I have watched Waldron football for years, actually did Waldron football on the radio in the early nineties. Waldron had a couple of good years when Kearney was there.
I have alot of friends in Waldron and get some pretty good info.
Some of the problems Waldron faces (as do other schools) is that alot of the kids work during the summer whether it be on farms or at local jobs. Problem is coaches were having trouble getting kids to summer workouts and in some cases two-a-days. Let's face it, football has become a year round sport. Coach Davis' philosophy of not playing 7 on 7 doesn't bode well either. Even if you don't pass the ball in your offense, 7 on 7 helps your defense against passing teams. He can get by with that stuff at a 2A school like Strong but it will not happen at a 4A school. He had better get with the program pretty quick or he will be with Dayton in the unemployment line. Also another thing Coach Davis might consider...he might think twice before running his mouth about how easy of a victory a certain school might be...you know it might get back to the other coach...and you might get curb stomped because of it...lol...

I have watched Waldron football for years, actually did Waldron football on the radio in the early nineties. Waldron had a couple of good years when Kearney was there.
I have alot of friends in Waldron and get some pretty good info.
Some of the problems Waldron faces (as do other schools) is that alot of the kids work during the summer whether it be on farms or at local jobs. Problem is coaches were having trouble getting kids to summer workouts and in some cases two-a-days. Let's face it, football has become a year round sport.

I sure hope he hasn't been running his mouth about easy victories.  That wouldn't be in his best interest, and wouldn't be a good example to young kids if indeed it did happen.

Although, I could see players doing that since Waldron/Mansfield is close together and it is a rivial school.  But that's kids ;D 

We all know Waldron is down this year, no need for stats, or continued beat down.    I was trying to remain positive for the kids, it's not their fault.   I guess some and I say some truly don't care and like you mentioned chose work instead of athtletics.  But it is still their choice to make.

Just like it's the Coaches choice to do 7 on 7 or not.  I don't have a easy answer to how and help them other than for Waldron to try and get behind Coach Davis and mainly the kid's an support them as a fans.

Good Luck Waldron Beat Paris!!!

The things worth having in life are never easy.  Just remember what goes around come's around and if given enough time you will get your win against all the nay' sayers.

Be respectful and humble as I am sure all of you are.  Remember how one acts at the moment of defeat and at the moment of victory always is remembered by the other team.   Coach Davis's leadership will turn Waldron around because ALL of the kid's are 100% behind him and he has been doing a wonderful job from what I hear.

Coach Venny, I look forward to the next few years.  I think Davis will hand deliever the tigers a good ole' fashion whippin! ;D

Ok just some statements and observations for Waldron.  For one Coach Davis' offense will not work in the smash mouth style of defense in the 4A or 3A for that matter.  If you question that look at the evidence Mansfield 47 Waldron 6 and Paris 49 Waldron 0.  The triple option offense does not work with a team who do not have finesse and speed.  Most the points for Mansfield came off of fumbles and broken plays due to options.  Next is to beat these defenses in 4A and get out of a rut you need to develop a passing game.  This will work so far on all teams but Pottsville who have good pass coverage.  Waldron the past 2 years have been moving seniors to the QB position over qualified lower classmen who have ran the position their whole life.  The issue is QB is not a position you just pick up over a spring and summer practice.  I would take another senior wide receiver with a junior QB who has experience any day over moving a senior from wide receiver to QB.  The last issue I have seen is that these boys need fed they are small and get thrown around.  Instead of new pads or jersey or whatever they need some good ole meat and taters.  I know in Waldron we have business that will sponsor our boys and feed them every game food that will make them get size.  Just a suggestion here but coach Gill of Mansfield started a program when he first went their of his team not leaving school staying in the gym or commons and having a meal together and focusing on the game until game time.  So they were together as a team from 3-kickoff being quite and eating thinking nothing but football.

Finally someone from Waldron!   

I can agree that the kid's are small and definately need some home grown cookin' to help add size paired with weight lifting to build them up and I would think that Coach Davis, if I had to guess, is already on top of this situation and is going to hit this hard during off season if he isn't doing this already.  I think it's great that their is Business's wanting to help out with this.  Nothing beats a good relationship between the community and the coaches.

To me the score seems worse really than what it is.  What I mean by that, is Waldron is so new in learning Coach Davis's way, that it isn't as smooth as plays as what it will become after it is ran over and over again.  Practice makes perfect.  With the option, In my opinion if say, a player misses the stutter step or half-step it throws the whole sequence off and thus is a busted play.

The kid's are having to adapt right now, and Waldron in all the years past has always been a smashmouth football team & so is Booneville but Booneville has speed or used too anyway.   Granted, if there is a QB that can zip it down the field and there is a reciever that can catch it sure, why not pass?  You have to run a few times 1st and have that developed too- to catch the team off guard then throw it deep but when you do, you better make it to the endzone for the TD.  You have to be able to captialize on those types of plays.imo.

Going to be fun to see what Coach Davis's take on Waldron will be after the end of the season and what his main focus will be( which we know it's the kids) at the start of next year.  Defense need's built up to be able to stop them(teams) force turnovers and shorten the field, and also have size on offense to be able to block and give the QB time to throw and execute the plays.

No they have not had try outs.  In this area Mansfield Waldron they normally just take who they can and seniors are given first shots unless they blow it.  The QB for Waldron this year was one of their best wide receivers last year.  Same as the year before a wife receiver moved to QB.  The junior QB who by the way is the one who scored their one touchdown with a pass to Bryson Betz this year was also the one who scored on Paris last year as a sophomore on a pass.  His brother was a QB three years later and this kid has done nothing but QB.  I think coach Davis was just following the former coaches lineup for this year.  Coach Davis might know his football but this area here is not one for option to be ran on besides lack of athleticism defenses in this area pride themselves on run defense of any kind. The pass is really what tears up teams in the 4a and 3a but there are some teams who have the whole package like I said before Pottsville is one.  The character is one area where Waldron suffers as well.  I have watched boys slam helmets down and plop down on benches with helmets off and not even caring what teammates are doing.  There was even an assistant coach who stayed away from the team during the whole third quarter in disgust which doesn't send a good message to fans and players.

No tryouts ???  Really?  Is this because they are working on getting more kids out for football maybe?  I find this a little bit different.  Some schools have tryout's which makes the kid's have to earn and work hard to get the #1 spot.  It can help build them as a team, such as one's who will be willing to do extra such as participate in clinic's over the summer, lift weights etc. and this in turn will usually encourage the other's to want to work even harder thus making the basic fundamentals of football well established before gametime. 

It can also help determine who is the best/fit and leader.  Not just in a certain positions but one having the ability to lead the team, and have the good character that one would want displayed on and off of the field.  Not slamming helmets, or avoiding watching the game such as you said you seen.  They are a team as a WHOLE.  Win Lose, good bad, etc.

Neither Waldron nor Mansfield has tryouts they take whatever players they can get because they lack depth on the roster.  That's not to say there are not boys in that school who should be playing but they can't maintain the grades or family will not let them dedicate time to it.  As far as Cedarville coming to Waldron I think it will be a close game due to the shellacking Cedarville gave Mountainburg opening week.  The only thing is this is still a non conference game for Waldron and Cedarville is not a 4A team.  In the last three years the only conference or team that is 4A Waldron has beat is Subiaco.
Title: Re: Waldron's on road to Success
Post by: DogsWin7 on September 09, 2012, 02:13:50 pm
The only reason I asked chspirates2008 about cedarville coming to Waldron, is he is one who wished Coach Davis success at Waldron and know he is looking forward to a good game.

Cedarville is also another team that is on it's way to turning it's football program around.  It isn't just something that happen's overnight.
I suspect that this will be a very good game for both teams, and if Waldron could win that would be a huge confidence boost for Waldron.

Waldron has been I am sure, working really hard at trying to adapt to Coach Davis's new techniques, play-calls, discipline and overall just getting to know the Coach and what demands he expects from his team.  I know expectations are probably at an all time high after Waldron having such a hard season over the past few years but it isn't fair really to Coach Davis to start laying blame on him yet since he has only been at Waldron What? a few months?

I would also like to point out that I don't know of any kid alive that can have more character building lessons than that of Waldron's very own team. Does that mean slam helmets if this happened?  no.  It has to be hard for them to continue to go out and play the game even though they are getting beat 49-0. I think it would show that those Waldron kid's aren't quitters they are champs deep down giving a 110% to represent Waldron and prove they want to play football.   Those kid's need to be supported in every way possible because that is the hardest thing in life to take criticism from others that isn't always deserved, and for it being something that isn't in their control. imo.

Hang Tough Kids!  Coach Davis is moving the ball and chains forward.  I know the score doesn't represent all the hardwork and effort that Waldron(you) put in, but Waldron actually had more 1st downs last night than they have had in years. 

The motivation of the team it's coming!  All things are a go and the fan's need to realize that he is RE-BUILDING A PROGRAM. 

To be fair to Coach Davis, He needs support and quite frankly in my opinion you need to let him bring in a Coach that he wants to help him.  (get those kids some PB&J's to eat, Waldron is a YOUNG TEAM) 

Granted, it was a hard loss but Mansfield is going to be one of those sweeper teams, they are good.  Who ever #24 and #8 are Charleston if you're reading this- you best stop them.

Good Luck Waldron and Coach Davis-  You have got SUPPORT!!!!   NOW LET'S GO!

Thank's for the comment about Mansfield being a good team, to be honest Mansfield has the best team they have had in years and a lot has to do with changes coach Gill has made and that the boys have heart and pretty much refuse to be under estimated this year.  Everyone said that Mansfield beat Waldron because Waldron was that bad of a team I refuse to accept that, Waldron made a lot of good plays and moved the ball well.  Now back to Mansfield and the heart and fight these boys have this year, I seen score predictions favoring Greenland ranging from" Greenland 22 and Mansfield 21 and there was Greenland 41 and Mansfield 7.  Mansfield lost a few good player's in that game due to injury but have other players that can fill them spots. To answer who #24 is that is Tim Snider and #8 is Jeffery Bartlett and yes it is true they are good but if they shut down the run game this year Mansfield will go to the air, that alone has made such a big difference in last years team and this year's.  Mansfield has a very strong defense and not talking anything away from Waldron but I truly believe  that game could have been a shut out, but that wasn't the point it was that our defense has only giving up 20 points over two games 6 to Waldron and 14 to Greenland who was favored to beat us. With that said final score was Mansfield 37 and Greenland 14.

Diehard I have to know do you live in Waldron or know any of these boys playing?  I can say I have met with a few of them and while there are a few who have the willingness and drive to be winners and make this system work.  They have some problems with kids who play that do not have a drive in life at all.  Its not fair for those that are dedicated and work hard to be crapped on because some people just play for the girls or after parties that go on.  While I that is kind of a taboo subject being a dry county lets not be ignorant that this is southern football and after the games kids are going to find a way to drink.  The boys that are dedicated though would make this team great again regardless of the coach but it is going to take some crushing defeats and key moves at benching starters even to make points made that dedication is whats expected.  My team my senior year suffered from the same situation at Mansfield we had people on our team less dedicated and only cared about be popular or a football player not about winning.  It is hard when you try to reach younger guys on the team and get them to step up when they have no drive.  The issue is the ones slamming helmets and making stupid decisions like throwing punches on the field are making those who want this team to work suffer with their attitude.  I would be all for a summer camp where them boys have to work as a unit and become brothers.  I know with my former teammates that was our attitude and it seems to be lacking with the Bulldogs.  Not saying we were perfect, every family has it fights, but in the end we had each others back regardless and I just don't see the brotherhood with this team.  It takes work and they need that kind of structure before plays and schemes will fall into place.  I do think coach Davis can do it, but if he keeps up with the trash talking like he did with Mansfield that supposedly was being passed around he will lose respect and support from his fans.  From what I heard of it he was out of line and was not respectful.  There is a time and place for that kind of trash talk and its the locker room before the game.

Mansfield is a good team.  The idea that you did well against them and saying Waldron just played a good team was all and thats why they lost is an understatement.  Mansfield was given the ball how many times off of fumbles?  They were given tackles how many times off of broken plays?  Field position from Waldron kickoffs and punts were optimal to say the least.  The game was a a shellacking and Mansfield did not have to play hard they played like a good team and cohesive unit.  The running backs are dominant as also at Mansfield that is what the Tigers have always had pride in.  Defense strong against the run again always had pride in.  They are a good team and I can't wait for the Mansfield Charleston game.  Waldron as a 4A school should be competing at least with Mansfield if not beating them due to conference.  The issue is a smaller team where Mansfield's line averages 250 lbs  Waldrons is around 200.  The running backs are bigger and stronger and they are cohesive like I said before.  I watched as Waldron was man handled up and down field simply due to lack of size and team work.  I watched as the triple option offense of Coach Davis was crumbled up by Tiger Defense due to lack of option experience and traditional aggressiveness of Defense in our area of Arkansas.  Coach Gill is a good fit for Mansfield he understands the type of ball we play in this area and he added the pass to the program which is something Mansfield has needed for years.  Waldron when will you learn that the running game needs to be solid.  Option plays out of the power I or ace formation will work but not a wing T. The passing game is a must in 4A to be dominant if you are not strong at the run.  Defense needs to be ruthless. Finally if you stick with the wing T make sure you have running backs who are not afraid to get hit and strong in the run.  I don't like to be so negative but I have a lot of expectations for Waldron and as a fan divided being a former Tiger want both teams to have the rivalry battles we are known for.  These boys at Waldron deserve a strong outing and winning season.  They are good boys it is their lack of team and unity that hurts along with drive.  I know its seems I have done nothing but tear them down but the program needs some changes to happen for them to get where they need to go.  I do hope coach Davis does this I would love to help Coach Davis do this.  I just don't think coaches like to listen to fans.  Since most lack the love of football, unlike those on this page who eat sleep and bleed football.

Waldron needs an offense just like Mansfield's, simply a spiltback or dead/diamond t and straight ahead running. That's the bad thing about the double slot triple option. You've only got one threat for a quick straight ahead run and that's the fullback. Mansfield runs dive through A gap and dive through B gap. And different plays off of that depending on their talent. But their dive plays hit fast cause they got the running backs at 3-4 yards and they go straight not side to side.

Post by: DogsWin7 on September 10, 2012, 11:49:54 am
Supposedly that is what is rumored about what Coach Davis did.  Do you know for a fact that he and his staff trash talked the other coaches?  I don't. I wasn't there.  Without Coach Davis being on here to defend himself, I think that personally that can't even be included into the situation at Waldron.

Does that mean you don't have a right to be concerned?  No, and if and I say If that was done and I were a parent, I would ask Coach Davis about it up front.   He's a Coach, part of his job is to answer questions and I know if I were him I would want that respect and courtesy to be given to me to explain exactly what happened, if anything indeed did.  I would also, want any concerns that a parent has, and I would be thankful that I had people such as yourself who truly love waldron and the kid's to help.  But I also would want parents to understand that as a Coach the decision is ultimately his and it should be respected until it proves wrong in my opinion. You seem reasonable and I would suspect that the Coach is and wouldn't see why that communication can't be the 1st line of defense in helping repair/ or should say begin building the Waldron FB Program.   Coach Davis hasn't had but a few months at Waldron.  It isn't going to turn into championship in one season.  He has got to have time.   I am not trying to sing Coach Davis's praises by any means but he deserves a fair chance first from Waldron.

You have to admit the situation that he has stepped into isn't the most desired although it should be with a new multimillion dollar facility and a chance to build something in Waldron which is a great place and school.  Davis has a challenge on his hands with the different mindsets of kid's, kid's who have to work to help their families, and kid's that live to far out to be able to come in to summer practices.  I would have to admit that if I got my rear handed to me every single game it would cross my mind why go out/why try?  Part of Waldron's area I see is that it has been so long since they have consistently won, that the fan's have all but given up.  It is humiliating to consistently be beat down, and talked about as like you and Coach V said "Waldron's that bad?"  Everyone is wanting to be judge and jury and let's add executioner of Waldron.   

I don't know, when I started this thread my intention was to bring light to the kid's who so desperately desire to be able to compete in football.  I was seriously trying to help.  I thought that maybe it was more about overcoming a mindset and adversity of what the perception of others is about Waldron.   Waldron is a good town with good people I still believe. No one wants to be the town that is everybody's homecoming.  Would you want that for your child and town?  No, and that's why you are voicing your concerns, and want to see it do better as well.   I think Waldron is on there way, but  the fans is going to have to have faith and give a little more time to see what's to come.

Waldron needs an offense just like Mansfield's, simply a spiltback or dead/diamond t and straight ahead running. That's the bad thing about the double slot triple option. You've only got one threat for a quick straight ahead run and that's the fullback. Mansfield runs dive through A gap and dive through B gap. And different plays off of that depending on their talent. But their dive plays hit fast cause they got the running backs at 3-4 yards and they go straight not side to side.

That is a good assessment and it is true that it would probably help Waldron's offense in my opinion as well.  I am not the coach though. 
Maybe Davis will see after this year he may need to run something different depending on what skill position kid's and #'s he has go out next year.  Younger ones will be coming up and perhaps he will change things around.

In Waldron's defense, have you seen Mansfield?  They will beat Paris not to criticize Paris but Mansfield has probably the biggest line in the 2 conferences combined.  Charleston will have the battle of the year with Mansfield.

I have watched Waldron football for years, actually did Waldron football on the radio in the early nineties. Waldron had a couple of good years when Kearney was there.
I have alot of friends in Waldron and get some pretty good info.
Some of the problems Waldron faces (as do other schools) is that alot of the kids work during the summer whether it be on farms or at local jobs. Problem is coaches were having trouble getting kids to summer workouts and in some cases two-a-days. Let's face it, football has become a year round sport. Coach Davis' philosophy of not playing 7 on 7 doesn't bode well either. Even if you don't pass the ball in your offense, 7 on 7 helps your defense against passing teams. He can get by with that stuff at a 2A school like Strong but it will not happen at a 4A school. He had better get with the program pretty quick or he will be with Dayton in the unemployment line. Also another thing Coach Davis might consider...he might think twice before running his mouth about how easy of a victory a certain school might be...you know it might get back to the other coach...and you might get curb stomped because of it...lol...

I'm assistant coach at Augusta genius.

And 7 on 7 is a waste of time.

Or worse
That's why 99% of the successful coaches do it Genius...I didn't even know Augusta played football anymore...

Mansfield's offense is simple. We don't run alot of plays but what we run, we run well. Great assessment Whipper. See ya Friday...

Mansfield is a good team.  The idea that you did well against them and saying Waldron just played a good team was all and thats why they lost is an understatement.  Mansfield was given the ball how many times off of fumbles?  They were given tackles how many times off of broken plays?  Field position from Waldron kickoffs and punts were optimal to say the least.  The game was a a shellacking and Mansfield did not have to play hard they played like a good team and cohesive unit.  The running backs are dominant as also at Mansfield that is what the Tigers have always had pride in.  Defense strong against the run again always had pride in.  They are a good team and I can't wait for the Mansfield Charleston game.  Waldron as a 4A school should be competing at least with Mansfield if not beating them due to conference.  The issue is a smaller team where Mansfield's line averages 250 lbs  Waldrons is around 200.  The running backs are bigger and stronger and they are cohesive like I said before.  I watched as Waldron was man handled up and down field simply due to lack of size and team work.  I watched as the triple option offense of Coach Davis was crumbled up by Tiger Defense due to lack of option experience and traditional aggressiveness of Defense in our area of Arkansas.  Coach Gill is a good fit for Mansfield he understands the type of ball we play in this area and he added the pass to the program which is something Mansfield has needed for years.  Waldron when will you learn that the running game needs to be solid.  Option plays out of the power I or ace formation will work but not a wing T. The passing game is a must in 4A to be dominant if you are not strong at the run.  Defense needs to be ruthless. Finally if you stick with the wing T make sure you have running backs who are not afraid to get hit and strong in the run.  I don't like to be so negative but I have a lot of expectations for Waldron and as a fan divided being a former Tiger want both teams to have the rivalry battles we are known for.  These boys at Waldron deserve a strong outing and winning season.  They are good boys it is their lack of team and unity that hurts along with drive.  I know its seems I have done nothing but tear them down but the program needs some changes to happen for them to get where they need to go.  I do hope coach Davis does this I would love to help Coach Davis do this.  I just don't think coaches like to listen to fans.  Since most lack the love of football, unlike those on this page who eat sleep and bleed football.

Great post! +1

Make your case by putting an effective passing offense or defense on the field without doing any 7 on 7.

Dang Venny what is going on around here?  Why would you think 7 on 7 is good?  LOL!!!  When kids could sit at home play video games and eating pop tarts. 

I guess a coach has a right to do whatever he wants with his team.  But IMO if you choose to not do 7 on 7 and work weekends watching film and planning for the next week game then your not giving your team the best chance to win.  So you might as well stop coaching and just teach history and let some other coach come in that cares.

Title: Re: Waldron's on road to Success
Post by: Dayton Kitchens on September 12, 2012, 08:33:26 pm
7 on 7.

The claim that it helps a team develop their passing offense.

1) No pass rush.   Completely unrealistic situation with no relevance to actual games.

2) Because there is no pass rush,  a quarterback is free to move and adjust to his receivers without regard for the rush.   In real football,  the receivers routinely adjust to quarterbacks under pressures.

3) No pass rush means that a quarterback can work purely on their throwing mechanics with no regard to protecting themselves and not exposing themselves to injury.   Quarterbacks in 7 on 7 can and do develop bad  habits where they leave themselves overly exposed to potential injury.   

4) No offensive line means that a quarterback in 7 on 7 gets a far better view of the field than he will during a real game.

5) In any passing game,  many yards are made by receivers after the catch.   Because 7 on 7 is "touch football",   receivers do not practice the vital skills involved in breaking tackles and making yards after catch and contact.

6) Because 7 on 7 is "touch football" receivers do not develop the skills (and even get out of the habit) of downfield blocking, which is vital to both successful running and passing attacks.

7) Wearing helmets, shorts and tee shirts means that receivers have a different range of motion with their arms than when it full pads.    This not only develops bad habits in the way receivers catch,  but a quarterback and throw to a receiver less accurately in 7 on 7 than in a real game because the reach of a 7 on 7 receiver is greater.

The claim that it helps teams develop their defense against a pass.

1) Bollocks!.   The best pass defense is always a pass rush.   No known pass defense without a pass rush can stop a passing game consistently.   

2) "Touch football"  No development of tackling skills from the secondary.

3) No running game means that linebackers (mainly) not only do not have to check for runs, but generalliy they don't have to worry about backs circling out of the backfield.

4) A quarterback in 7 on 7 has no running option, meaning that linebackers, safeties, and others have no need to consider what most coaches consider an important part of an offensive attack.

In general.

1) Playing "touch football" in a helmet and shorts alters most players running habits and styles.   Making them less accustomed to full contact football running and contribute to knee and lower leg injuries.

Teams play 7 on 7 for three big reasons:

1) It is as one coach said "something to do when the AAA won't let you do anything else".

2) It is more fun than basic conditioning (supposedly).

And the biggest reason

3) Everyone else is doing it.   No coach wants to be the man who loses a title to a team that plays 7 on 7 and then has howling parents at the school board meeting yelling "why didn't we do 7 on 7" (regardless of whether it had a thing to do with team performance).

I hope that answers some questions.

Sounds more like somebody trying to explain the downfalls of winning the lottery. 7 on 7 is not by any means a solve all when it comes to football, but it can be vital in installing a huge amount of your team's playbook before ever dawning a pad. This leaves more time to focus on fundamentals and the running game once official practice has started. I would think a QB should learn his reads and adjustments before ever having to face a pass rush. As far as defense goes, reads and recognition are even more important with today's pass happy offenses. Winning 3rd down and getting off the field means being able to play the chains. 3rd and long is vital to defensive success. Teaching defensive reads and drops can be done during these somewhat meaningless games does have carry over to real game scenarios which means less teaching in a shortened week of preparation. This is all strictly my opinion and I have been wrong before.

I suppose it would be mean of me to point out that studies show that the majority of lottery winners end up bankrupt within a few years of their win

7 on 7.

The claim that it helps a team develop their passing offense.

1) No pass rush.   Completely unrealistic situation with no relevance to actual games.

2) Because there is no pass rush,  a quarterback is free to move and adjust to his receivers without regard for the rush.   In real football,  the receivers routinely adjust to quarterbacks under pressures.

3) No pass rush means that a quarterback can work purely on their throwing mechanics with no regard to protecting themselves and not exposing themselves to injury.   Quarterbacks in 7 on 7 can and do develop bad  habits where they leave themselves overly exposed to potential injury.   

4) No offensive line means that a quarterback in 7 on 7 gets a far better view of the field than he will during a real game.

5) In any passing game,  many yards are made by receivers after the catch.   Because 7 on 7 is "touch football",   receivers do not practice the vital skills involved in breaking tackles and making yards after catch and contact.

6) Because 7 on 7 is "touch football" receivers do not develop the skills (and even get out of the habit) of downfield blocking, which is vital to both successful running and passing attacks.

7) Wearing helmets, shorts and tee shirts means that receivers have a different range of motion with their arms than when it full pads.    This not only develops bad habits in the way receivers catch,  but a quarterback and throw to a receiver less accurately in 7 on 7 than in a real game because the reach of a 7 on 7 receiver is greater.

The claim that it helps teams develop their defense against a pass.

1) Bollocks!.   The best pass defense is always a pass rush.   No known pass defense without a pass rush can stop a passing game consistently.   

2) "Touch football"  No development of tackling skills from the secondary.

3) No running game means that linebackers (mainly) not only do not have to check for runs, but generalliy they don't have to worry about backs circling out of the backfield.

4) A quarterback in 7 on 7 has no running option, meaning that linebackers, safeties, and others have no need to consider what most coaches consider an important part of an offensive attack.

In general.

1) Playing "touch football" in a helmet and shorts alters most players running habits and styles.   Making them less accustomed to full contact football running and contribute to knee and lower leg injuries.

Teams play 7 on 7 for three big reasons:

1) It is as one coach said "something to do when the AAA won't let you do anything else".

2) It is more fun than basic conditioning (supposedly).

And the biggest reason

3) Everyone else is doing it.   No coach wants to be the man who loses a title to a team that plays 7 on 7 and then has howling parents at the school board meeting yelling "why didn't we do 7 on 7" (regardless of whether it had a thing to do with team performance).

I hope that answers some questions.

Dayton,  you do realize that even if you are even remotely close to being or were right in some aspects, Coach V would never ever admit it?

Guess everybodies got their own opinion.  I was under the impression anything that gets kids out and moving couldn't hurt.  In our nintindo generation I would want my kids out of the house and moving.  The most important aspect of 7 on 7 is getting your kids out there to Compete.  I am glad everyone doesn't take Draylon's attitude.  H.S. football in Arkansas would suck.  Arkansas High School Coaches should be commended for doing 7 on 7.  Trying to make their programs as successful as they can.  I might add that MANY coaches are not under contract during these tourney/camps.  They owe it to the kids that bust their buts for the Program.  This is what good Coaching is all about.  Good luck to all Arkansas high school teams and Coaches.

I am beginning to think that is part of the problem.  Everyone wants to be the chief.  The town and school seem to be divided into all sorts of different directions and are not going just one way.

The more I read and understand, the clearer it becomes that everyone has this certain idea of what they want done.  It is good to have opinions and voice them, but at the same time eventually a school or town or team has to come together to meet the goal of going forward.

I am all for one to embrace change especially one for the better of the kids.  It is what it is about getting it fixed for the kids, community, school etc.

Football is King.  Lets face it.  It determines how a town acts on Friday night, and if you are not winning it effects the entire community.  It can effect academics on Monday morning on how the school feels after a loss, etc. imo.

That can be detrimental to a program when there is a breakdown of communication.

I hope that answers some questions.
One at a time...
1. While there is no actual pass rush, the Qb is timed and has to deliver the ball in so many seconds or it is ruled incomplete. He still gets reads on the secondary and he still has to make accurate passes. Kinda like a player batting off of a pitching machine, he isn't batting off of a live pitcher but he still gets quality reps. Of course I am sure all Major league hitting instructors are wrong also.
2. Why can't receivers adjust in 7on7? They do all the time, but of course not participating in 7on7 you wouldn't know would you?
3. Well Dayton, that is where coaching comes into play. You said yourself that Qb's work on mechanics, a good thing by the way, and yes they avoid injury, another good thing...but when a coach sees a bad habit developing they can stop it pretty quick.
4. Yes he does, but when actual practice starts he will be working behind the line and will know the traits and characteristics of his receivers and know what they will and won't do. That's like saying running pass skels is a bad thing...lol...
5. That stuff is done in actual practice Dayton. You have tackling Drills. You do know what those are don't you. They get enough of that in PRACTICE!
6. See #5...
7. Bull...with the pads that kids have today as opposed to twenty years ago they have just as much range. Twenty years ago I would have agreed with this theory...not today...
Defense
1. That is just plain stupid. This is designed to develop D-backs skills. You just try and rush PA all the time and leave those D-backs on an island with no pass defending skills and PA will drop 40 on you so fast your head will spin. Yes a pass rush is great, but the d-backs need to do their job also...I hope you get a head coaching job in our conference some day...that will be an easy win...lol...
2. YOU TEACH TACKLING in PRACTICE DAYTON. Tackling drills...ever heard of those?
3. Bull again. I know several schools that play 7on7 in their base offensive formation, Mansfield being one. I know the lb's we play against have to defend them...Mansfield lines up two running backs in the backfield...Split back veer...
4. No the Qb can't run, but he only has a short period to get rid of the football. Again, this is designed to improve the PASSING game and develop the d-backs...I have a crayon font I can use if it would help you better understand...
General
1. Again, that is why you practice. Mix in 7on7 with team camps and regular practice and you become a well rounded football team...
Teams play 7on7 for 3 big reasons...
1. Your right, but it is good to do something instead of sitting around playing video games. I am sure you have developed a way to incorporate playstation 3 into your offseason program huh...do you want them actually working on football or playing video games? Forget it...I know your answer...lol...
2. All the teams I know do both...basic conditioning and 7on7...so they should be in great shape...
3. Yeah I am sure that coaches like Rick Jones (Greenwood), Barry Lunney (Bentonville), Chris Wood (Springdale Harbor), Doug Loughridge (Charleston), Kevin Kelly (Pulaski Academy), Josh Floyd (Shiloh) and 90% of the other coaches are scared to death that if they do not do 7on7 they will get a parent at a school board meeting...lol...pathetic...
The only questions you answered are these...
1. You haven't a clue as to how to build a football team. that is why you never stay anywhere and can't get a head coaching job. You are a career assistant at best...
2. You are lazy. You don't want to spend the time to work with the kids year round to build a winner. You want your weekends off and your summers off without getting the kids better. Alot of other coaches want those things also, but they sacrifice to win and make the kids better athletes.

2) It is more fun than basic conditioning (supposedly).

And the biggest reason

3) Everyone else is doing it.   No coach wants to be the man who loses a title to a team that plays 7 on 7 and then has howling parents at the school board meeting yelling "why didn't we do 7 on 7" (regardless of whether it had a thing to do with team performance).

I hope that answers some questions.

Dayton, I sure hope that isn't how you feel.  That attitude is an insult to the Coaching Proffession.  Surely all these opinions are to simply pick an arguement over the internet to simply pass time.  I hate to post anything negative but...
Oh no...he believes this...he also doesn't believe in working weekends during football season or during the summer...and yes, it is an insult to the coaching profession...

I've never said anything about not working in the summer.

An "insult to the coaching profession" is when blowhards on the internet who have not coached a single moment of their lives (and never will) presume to tell a trained professional how to do his job......

Venny sits in the stands or press box and pontificates (or is it another word that rhymes?) about how he can do a better job than what he is watching and as justification refers to other coaches who are so accomplished that they will not even speak with him.

There are half a hundred people you could confirm that with if you wished to be anything more than an internet tough guy.

Good Luck Waldron Beat Cedarville!

I noticed on urhometownsports under Good Better Betz at the top of his webpage he had written an article about Waldron.  It is just his personal view such as I have mine here on FF  but I happen to think it is a good read for some bulldog fan's if you will just remain open minded.

Anyway, what is this beat on Dayton and Diehard week?       
No, it is pretty eveident that you are up Davis and Kitchens butts...have fun in that crowd...anyway, you wouldn't be getting beat up if you would quit jumping the fence after every post. You do know that you can't actually agree with every post, someone has to be right and someone has to be wrong at some point...

I have fun pretty much in any crowd that I chose to take part in.  Anyway, I don't jump fence.  I agree that 7 on 7 is essential to a football team, I agree that football is now a year around sport but what I do not agree with is having lack of respect for a coach who actually holds the title.

I don't see how tearing down a Coaches reputation to kid's that are in the process of trying to re-build a program is beneficial all based on something or someones opinion such as yours.

So, I guess you can call it or me whatever you want it is after all a free world and thank God that we still have freedom of speech.
Again, because obviously you can't read...Davis ran his mouth, he deserves what he get's. Take up for the guy all you want, but the beat downs are gonna get worse when conference starts...had he not ran his mouth I never would have said anything. Did you hear me say anything negative about Klatt? No...

I found out later also that he made the same comments about some other coaches and teams as well.

I don't even know Dayton or Davis and maybe I shouldn't have taken up for someone I have never met but I know that kid's read this stuff on here and they are very impressionable especially when trying to listen to a new coach and wanting to believe that they are going to get better.

IIRC, it was Venny who after I commented on not any good bookstores near El Dorado that said that

"a coach has no business reading books".

Apparently,  V.C. thinks that a coach becomes certified and qualified by playing football for a season  and simply observing other coaches.

Much like lawyers in the 1800s used to study law by working as an unpaid assistant for a seasoned, established lawyer.     

This of course is the 21st century.   I've been in the offices of well regarded coaches being interviewed before (such as Perry when he was at CAC) and the amount of reading material they have on hand is enormous.

  In regards to his insults directed at Augusta,  I must point out that over a 10 year period (1982-92) Augusta won three state titles in football and played for two more.    More recently, they were a state quarterfinalist in football just a few years ago and they have won two state track championships in just the last three years.

So like it or not, their athletic (and football) tradition is a rich one.

  In regards to his insults directed at Augusta,  I must point out that over a 10 year period (1982-92) Augusta won three state titles in football and played for two more.    More recently, they were a state quarterfinalist in football just a few years ago and they have won two state track championships in just the last three years.

So like it or not, their athletic (and football) tradition is a rich one.
1. I never said a coach has no business reading books. Show me where I said that.
2. So you interviewed with Tim Perry? Didn't get hired though...wonder why? Perry is one of the biggest advocates of 7on7 and when at CAC held one of the biggest tourney's in Arkansas...
3. 82-92 is a long time ago son...and Augusta has always had athletes. Never said they didn't...it is just hard to get quality coaches there...the evidence of that is obvious...
4. You can only go so far on tradition...just ask teams like Little Rock Central and Barton who in the heyday were dominant but as of late haven't been so dominant...even though Barton is back on the rise...

IIRC, it was Venny who after I commented on not any good bookstores near El Dorado that said that

"a coach has no business reading books".

Apparently,  V.C. thinks that a coach becomes certified and qualified by playing football for a season  and simply observing other coaches.

1) If I mis rememberered who said something seven years or so give or take then I apologize. 

2) I didn't have that opinion about 7 on 7 back then.   I only developed my opinion after being a part of it for a number of years.

3) Coach Turner at Augusta has more than two decades of experience as a player and a coach.    Whatever my faults, the man knows football.

4) You are right up to a point about tradition.   But tradition does influence things like community support and student interests in playing

I don't even like posting this but Waldron got beat by Cedarville..............sigh. :-\

The score was Cedarville-20/Waldron-8.   It appears it was a tie game until half.  Give props to Cedarville they are also in a re-build phase and are really turning it around in Pirate Land.  Congrats Pirates.

Everything has got to get better.  On to play Booneville...........

DHFF, your hook didn't have to stay in the water long.

I didn't visit with Coach Davis, but if the man I saw in the Argent Pavilion was who I thought he was, I took it he probably had made a promise to a former player that he would be there for that player's first home college game.  If that was the case, good to see there are folks in this world who still think a promise means something, especially when it's made to a kid/young person.

There was at least one crowd shot on Dawgzilla (Tech's jumbotron) of what looked like quite a few kids in Strong football jerseys.  I also saw posts on Bulldog, Barks &  Bytes (the Tech message board) about Kenneth's family being there.  All who came to see and cheer KD should have thoroughly enjoyed the game and been proud of what Kenneth has accomplished so early in what I hope is a long football career.  Saturday he had 14 carries for 113 yards and 3 tds in a 56-37 win over Rice.

I would be carefull bashing Coach Davis too much.  For 4 months they couldn't give the Waldron job away.  No seasoned coach would touch it.  Shane is a good young coach.  This aint gonna be a winner overnight.  People that say negative comments arn't helping this (bad) situation.  I don't have a dog in the fight but this arguing is childish.  I believe Waldron is lucky to get Davis.  At least he has had success.   Learn how to support your teams in good times as well as bad.  Good luck to all Ark high school teams this Friday night.

How do you know that he doesn't spend more than enough time preparing his team?     I'm curious as to just how much time you believe a coach should spend preparing his team and how do you arrive at this figure.

I assume you have heard of Coach Billy Dawson of Nashville?    His first three seasons at Nashville he won three state titles.  Although he did inherit a 13-1 team and A.J. Whitmore from Chris Woods.

How long does he practice?

Two hours.    Not one second longer.   Not one second less.     He has said that if a coaching staff can't teach their  players the proper way to do things in that time then there is no point in continuing longer.

You don't have to be a Waldron fan.  You don't have to be a Davis fan.  The thing is Kids (players included) read this board religiously.  I just think it hurts the credibility of Coaches to openly critisize them on FF.  Just one guys opinion. 
He wouldn't get criticized if he spent more time preparing...and less time...well you know...

How do you know that he doesn't spend more than enough time preparing his team?     I'm curious as to just how much time you believe a coach should spend preparing his team and how do you arrive at this figure.

I assume you have heard of Coach Billy Dawson of Nashville?    His first three seasons at Nashville he won three state titles.  Although he did inherit a 13-1 team and A.J. Whitmore from Chris Woods.

How long does he practice?

Two hours.    Not one second longer.   Not one second less.     He has said that if a coaching staff can't teach their  players the proper way to do things in that time then there is no point in continuing longer.
He said prepare not practice.

You can't practice and prepare for an opponent without first watching game film, breaking it down and PREPARING for that team and then applying it to practice...so no, the actual practice is not the most vital part. Strength and conditioning is also another vital part...

Coach Davis may be just what Waldron needs, Waldron may be just what Coach Davis needs. Regardless it may take awhile until Waldron recovers. I don't think it would be skin off anybodys teeth if both were successful. Sure wouldn't hurt the kids either!

In my opinion, the worse thing that has happened to high school sports in the last 25 years is ESPN and Sports Talk Radio.  It has made everyone an "expert", even people who have never coached or even played.  There are too many people out there that believe that a new coach is like a magic wand and a new coach will turn a program around like some type of miracle worker.  The fact is that coach does the best he can to prepare, but most coaches have not tackled anyone in years, especially on a friday night.  I worked with a coach back in 1986, and he told me something has stuck with me for years......."Even Julia Child can't make chicken salad out of chicken litter."  So before you people throw the coach under the bus or chase him out of town, give him the opportunity to build a program from the junior high level, and in a few years hopefully he can enjoy some level of success.

I agree with everything you say sir...I really do. To be honest, I could care less if Waldron succeeds or not. What got this started was the Waldron coach running his mouth about how "EASY" some of his opponents were going to be and that some of the coaches philosophies were too "SIMPLE" and they would be an easy "W" for Waldron...lol, he said it in the front of the wrong people...that sir is why I have been hammering him, just so you know...like I have said numerous times on here, I have tons of friends and family in Waldron, some very good people down there and they deserve better...and have for several years now...

Sometimes the simplest philosophies are the best.  Kids understand it, if they understand they can play hard and fast. A good coach takes the thinking out of the game,  give them a simple set of rules and let them go.  I have seen on several occasions coaches out coach themselves and get beat by a less talented team because his kids were confused.

I have learn a few important things over the years........coaches need to be humble, with the community leaders, the school administration, and most importantly with the parents.  A coach that moves into a program that has suffered for a long period of time needs to say, "we will do the very best we can and hopefully your sons will graduate with a pleasant experience playing football."  Communities and parents want to hear that rah-rah speech, on how we are going to win and make the playoffs, but the reality is that too many things can happen and usually someone wins and someone losses, but it is not always the better team.  I have had the good fortune to be part of a state championship team, but then again be part of 0-10 season and I can honestly say that I enjoyed the teamwork of the 0-10 year better.  For any young coach out there that has aspirations of being a head coach, remember you are only as good as your players and if you allow yourself to be solely judged on the field performance of 15-18 year olds, you will probably not stay long.  Wins and losses does not aways predicate success.
Title: Re: Waldron's on road to Success
Post by: Dayton Kitchens on September 22, 2012, 06:49:00 pm
Being from Dierks,  I'm biased but I think the turnaround Coach David Bennett accomplished there is a very good guide to what it means to turn a football program around.

In the four years before Bennett's arrival,  Dierks had only won three or fewer games each season for at least four years (always against the very weakest teams in existence) and had not been to the playoffs in nearly 20 years.

In Bennett's first season,  they won four games.   But most importantly, the losses were different.   Instead of routinely losing by something like 40-6,   most of the losses were more like 27-13.    In other words, though still losing, the play of the team was much more competitive.

The second season his team finished 5-5.

The third season his team finished 8-3 losing in the first round of the playoffs.

The fourth season his team finished 7-4 losing in the first round fo the playoffs.

His fifth season his team finished 12-3, losing in the state title game to Charleston.

Bottom line, is that even if you don't get many more "W's" in the first season,   a team playing more competively should be doable.

Circumstances vary of course,  but as I did not follow Waldron closely,  I have no idea how they played overall last year.   

You've seen them every year have you not?    You tell me.   How does the teams on the field performance (aside from the scoreboard) compare to the last couple of years?

And also,  the season is less than half over so naturally you have to evaluate progress overall at seasons end.

Waldron against Mansfield was much more competitive last year than this year hands down...Paris is not as good this year as last year IMO...Cedarville may be a little improved and Booneville is playing a ton of Soph's...there is no comparison so far...

Dayton gave the example of the Coach at Dierks...Well to counter that I give you Billy Elmore of Stuttgart...wins wherever he goes...and trust me, he is not sitting around reading books on Saturday's or laying around during the summer. He is getting his kids ready...

For the most part. I think the passing game is going to need to improve. Brown and the receivers just need to spend some extra time working on timing things out.

Dayton gave the example of the Coach at Dierks...Well to counter that I give you Billy Elmore of Stuttgart...wins wherever he goes...and trust me, he is not sitting around reading books on Saturday's or laying around during the summer. He is getting his kids ready...

I am sorry some have misinterpreted what I meant by "the end".  I was referring to Coach V and all of his humorous attempts to slam Waldron.  He has seemed to back off somewhat, which I am very appreciative of.

The End?  Never!  Did (We) American's give up when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor?  No!  It's not in my vocabulary to ever give up and goes against every meaning of my name on here Die Hard.

Waldron will never give up.  The kid's are far to important to ever have a fail of that nature.  I never give up on kid's.  They are the driving force behind everything that is enjoyable in life. 

I wish nothing but Success for Waldron, and I look forward to this upward drive to see Waldron come out on the other side.

Go Waldron!

Why the end? Do you coach football? NO...do you give your "expert" opinion on here 24/7? Yes...so why is it the end? Because a guy that says he is a football coach gives an opinion it is gold.

That wound and stir up strife,
Use words of kindness, filled with love,
That heal and nourish life.-Sper


It's ok kid's, the one's who love you most will support you the most
Isn't that precious...lol...this IS a football board...

Then why are you here?
And you ask that? lololololololololol...really? Mr. Bookstore Himself...lolololol, Dayton...if you only knew...lolololololololol...maybe you should be concentrating on that mythical "DC" job you have and maybe this week you won't get 63 points dropped on you...

Listen, for you to act like that you have not been somewhat poking fun at me on this board is a little bit wrong, and YOU know it.  The jokes, name calling, etc.

I admit I took the bait on some of those, I am ashamed I did and now I am asking you to please stop.

I don't care if you like Coach Davis or not.  I don't know him.  I just know that you seem to have a problem in letting this "thing" about what he apparently did go.

The kid's read this board, you know this you have been posting on here for years.  You say, that you want the best for Waldron, the kids, etc because you have friends and family there.  I believe that.   

I am asking you to please let it go for now, just until it proves wrong.  All I can do is ask.  The decision is yours.

I've kept up with Waldron Football for 15+ years, and it doesn't take much to figure out that even with a good coach it's gonna take a couple years to get that program turned around and heading in the right direction.  Coach Davis knows what he's doing and with time Waldron will start wining some games, mark my words.

I graduated almost 10 years ago and new a lot of kids from waldron at the time, I've also kept up with them since through relatives and friends.  Waldron has always had good athletes, it just seems like they were never coached enough to make a great team, and a lot of the good athletes they have had didn't even go out for football.  It wouldn't matter if Waldron had a killer group of 8th graders or not, they have the talent to make a good team, the key is getting that talent on the field and being able to properly coach it.  Regardless of whatever dislikes you have for Coach Davis (im talking to Coach V), he is the best Coach Waldron has seen in 10+ years.  Lets give it a few years and see who ends up being right.

I know Waldron and the kids MUCH better than you junior...stick to the library and away from the football field...Mr. DC...lololololol...Later on this season I am gonna post a conversation I had with a coach that knows you Dayton...we will wait until the season is over...lol...hilarious...
I graduated almost 10 years ago and new a lot of kids from waldron at the time, I've also kept up with them since through relatives and friends.  Waldron has always had good athletes, it just seems like they were never coached enough to make a great team, and a lot of the good athletes they have had didn't even go out for football.  It wouldn't matter if Waldron had a killer group of 8th graders or not, they have the talent to make a good team, the key is getting that talent on the field and being able to properly coach it.  Regardless of whatever dislikes you have for Coach Davis (im talking to Coach V), he is the best Coach Waldron has seen in 10+ years.  Lets give it a few years and see who ends up being right.

Great post.  I thought Coach Alan Rettman did a good job at Waldron during his tenure.  Why did he leave?  Seemed very good fit for Waldron?  Where is he now?
Thanks Loyal fan, I'm not sure where he is now.  In my opinion though, the only reason he had a couple years of success in 2003 and 2004. Was becasue of a player by the name of "Sean Kearney" (hope the spelling is right)  Not badmouthing Rettman but he just never could get anything going except for the time frame when Kearney was playing.

I've kept up with Waldron Football for 15+ years, and it doesn't take much to figure out that even with a good coach it's gonna take a couple years to get that program turned around and heading in the right direction.  Coach Davis knows what he's doing and with time Waldron will start wining some games, mark my words.

Sean Kearney...I coached him in summer baseball during the allstar games. He was the ONLY reason Rettman was any good...I don't see many Kearneys headed Waldrons way...

Couldn't agree more about that being the sole reasoning behind Rettman's success. But now that Rettman is out of the picture, Waldron isn't gonna always have to rely on "Sean Kerneys" to be successfull.

As far as a Christian man for coach Davis, how good of a Christian can you be when you are constantly bragging about your one state championship ring.  This is not just rumor this was something he was saying to players.  Not to mention the idea that this man believes so much in the triple option he would go as far as to say that well Georgia Tech runs it good and so does Navy.  Problem is neither of these programs have had really productive seasons and they are both in some of the weakest conferences in college football.  Coach Davis I do believe can do good but he needs to let his ego trip of winning a state championship fade away, embrace that the triple option is hurting not helping his offense who go three and out 90 percent of the time.  The other 10 percent is fumbles.  I know this might seem as a shock but compare the scores of Navy and Waldron and you will notice they lose by the same amounts and run the same offense.  Booneville even rolled into town and ran the same offense against them. The difference was hand off base compared to pitch and toss based options.  The problems are not just Davis' offense though the boys are just small.  The team is small.  They get exhausted where other teams just send in fresh players.  As stated by a Bulldog player about Maumelle.  We watched them walk out and it never stopped I thought I was a university game.  The parents are to blame for the lackluster football play at Waldron just as much as Davis with his offense simply due to not caring about their kids to make sure that at least maintain a C average to play ball.  Davis can not even recruit in his own school for bigger boys which there are plenty who would be a huge advantage to the team.  Just so I am not a huge bad guy for this, an C average is barely trying now a days, its just effort.  This kids in this school will not even attempt to due worksheets for grades just to keep up appearance because they do not care.  It is a social scene for them and that's it.  The whole enchilada is the problem.  The boys on the team lack hope which would help win some games.  These boys are not just being dominated this year by the 4a its 3a as well.  The last home game which was Booneville even the warm up music which was such a key to my team when I played ball was depressing.  I was sitting in the bleachers and felt like I had already been kicked in the nuts.  They played slow pop music and Adele.  I truly was depressed before the game even started, until the excitement of upbeat music started from Booneville band warming up.  I honestly felt they thought it was bad what they were playing during the warm up so they wanted to help their boys and ours.  The brightest spot for this team is the pep rallies where the team has spirit.  They are fired up but it drops after that.  I have songs on my phone that I would be more than glad to play while they warm up and jack those boys up.  I would even consider the notion of giving pep talks to these boys before the game.  I know how to inspire I know how to get jacked and I know how to make them believe even when all hope is gone.  I love Football.   I have ever since I manned up my sophomore year at Mansfield and put the pads on.  We build a brotherhood as a team.  The words my departing senior brothers left me still ring true to me.  Never quit Never settle.  This was not a phrase they took from coach these were brothers who felt in their hearts that you follow these words and you will be destined to succeed.  I hate seeing these boys suffer like this I hate seeing a team any team suffer like this.  It takes a community people and with out a community, open minded coaches, boys, or girls, fighting to wear those colors and represent your school on that field, even the band needs to be as disciplined as the football team.  It takes us all.  It takes criticism and making changes when they are noticed.  I still stand by my statement early though that if Davis will get rid of the triple option the score board will reflect it in a positive way.  Every game I have been too there has been at least 4 fumbles which as all football fans know normally equals points.  The Razorbacks are a good example for the power of fumbles.  I'm not saying I have the answers but I do know the problems, and they need all of our attention to be fixed in this community and for this team.  These are great boys I really enjoy the players themselves and they deserve to have a win.  One more rant before I quit.  This summer coach Davis had a calender up that counted down the days until the Mansfield game.  The goal was beat them.  I'm sorry yes they are rivals but I'm a big dreamer screw little Mansfield they are 3a coach I would shoot for Pottsville, the number 1 team in your 4a conference.  That is a goal if you shoot high you are amazed at what you do along the way.  Say we did that and did not beat them but beat 5 teams on the way you are already 500 percent better.  Just food for thought.

One more thing we have a tailgate section inside the stadium at home that is never used equipped with new charcoal grills and everything.  Our admin needs to let us use that as fans and see how awesome those stands can be.  I know it might compete with the concession stand, but thats why we do it before the game starts and take the stands as our boys take the field.  I honestly feel if those boys step out of their locker room and see over 100 fans in a small picnic area getting excited for them it will boost them up to make great plays more.

Absolutely.

You do not have the  nerve to be willing to quote an ACTUAL coach giving an opinion about another ACTUAL coach and give his name.     

And I've no fear because no coach I've worked with would say anything  negative about me of significance.

And if you want to quote someone I've never worked with then you are quoting someone who has at best a second hand and tangential knowledge of me or my qualifications, work ethic, or abilities.

And by the way Venny.

I assume by a "coach" you are referring to a FOOTBALL coach.   Not a BASEBALL coach whom I last worked with fully six years ago.

As far as a Christian man for coach Davis, how good of a Christian can you be when you are constantly bragging about your one state championship ring.  This is not just rumor this was something he was saying to players.  Not to mention the idea that this man believes so much in the triple option he would go as far as to say that well Georgia Tech runs it good and so does Navy.  Problem is neither of these programs have had really productive seasons and they are both in some of the weakest conferences in college football.  Coach Davis I do believe can do good but he needs to let his ego trip of winning a state championship fade away, embrace that the triple option is hurting not helping his offense who go three and out 90 percent of the time.  The other 10 percent is fumbles.  I know this might seem as a shock but compare the scores of Navy and Waldron and you will notice they lose by the same amounts and run the same offense.  Booneville even rolled into town and ran the same offense against them. The difference was hand off base compared to pitch and toss based options.  The problems are not just Davis' offense though the boys are just small.  The team is small.  They get exhausted where other teams just send in fresh players.  As stated by a Bulldog player about Maumelle.  We watched them walk out and it never stopped I thought I was a university game.  The parents are to blame for the lackluster football play at Waldron just as much as Davis with his offense simply due to not caring about their kids to make sure that at least maintain a C average to play ball.  Davis can not even recruit in his own school for bigger boys which there are plenty who would be a huge advantage to the team.  Just so I am not a huge bad guy for this, an C average is barely trying now a days, its just effort.  This kids in this school will not even attempt to due worksheets for grades just to keep up appearance because they do not care.  It is a social scene for them and that's it.  The whole enchilada is the problem.  The boys on the team lack hope which would help win some games.  These boys are not just being dominated this year by the 4a its 3a as well.  The last home game which was Booneville even the warm up music which was such a key to my team when I played ball was depressing.  I was sitting in the bleachers and felt like I had already been kicked in the nuts.  They played slow pop music and Adele.  I truly was depressed before the game even started, until the excitement of upbeat music started from Booneville band warming up.  I honestly felt they thought it was bad what they were playing during the warm up so they wanted to help their boys and ours.  The brightest spot for this team is the pep rallies where the team has spirit.  They are fired up but it drops after that.  I have songs on my phone that I would be more than glad to play while they warm up and jack those boys up.  I would even consider the notion of giving pep talks to these boys before the game.  I know how to inspire I know how to get jacked and I know how to make them believe even when all hope is gone.  I love Football.   I have ever since I manned up my sophomore year at Mansfield and put the pads on.  We build a brotherhood as a team.  The words my departing senior brothers left me still ring true to me.  Never quit Never settle.  This was not a phrase they took from coach these were brothers who felt in their hearts that you follow these words and you will be destined to succeed.  I hate seeing these boys suffer like this I hate seeing a team any team suffer like this.  It takes a community people and with out a community, open minded coaches, boys, or girls, fighting to wear those colors and represent your school on that field, even the band needs to be as disciplined as the football team.  It takes us all.  It takes criticism and making changes when they are noticed.  I still stand by my statement early though that if Davis will get rid of the triple option the score board will reflect it in a positive way.  Every game I have been too there has been at least 4 fumbles which as all football fans know normally equals points.  The Razorbacks are a good example for the power of fumbles.  I'm not saying I have the answers but I do know the problems, and they need all of our attention to be fixed in this community and for this team.  These are great boys I really enjoy the players themselves and they deserve to have a win.  One more rant before I quit.  This summer coach Davis had a calender up that counted down the days until the Mansfield game.  The goal was beat them.  I'm sorry yes they are rivals but I'm a big dreamer screw little Mansfield they are 3a coach I would shoot for Pottsville, the number 1 team in your 4a conference.  That is a goal if you shoot high you are amazed at what you do along the way.  Say we did that and did not beat them but beat 5 teams on the way you are already 500 percent better.  Just food for thought.

What Tradition does Waldro have?  Some of you fans, wannabe coches and the like, need to support your coach, he is probably the best one you have had.  I dont know who he is or what your team looks like but he must have seen something in your town and your community to want to come there.  How many coaches were beating at your door who had previous success?  You have unrealistic expectations.  When was the last time you had a winning season?  You have not one more than 2 games since 2006.  It takes time, community support, and Athletes to win.  Sounds like you dont know what any of that is.  Its not like Nick Saban is beating your doors down to come there.  The coach is probably running that system because it is one of the best offenses to run for what you have to run it with.  You have a first year coach with success, enjoy him while you can...

Coach Davis is fooling himself if he believes he had anything to do with Strong winning the state championship last year! His ego is the reason the head coaching duties were taken away from him. His actions in the locker room after the lose to Parkers Chapel last year wasn't something you could remotely call christian. Ofcourse we try to be Christ like, we all fail at that. Christ was humble and would never try to take credit for something he didn't do!

Strong was 3 & 3 when he was relieved of his duties. you know the rest of the story.

The difference was hand off base compared to pitch and toss based options.  The problems are not just Davis' offense though the boys are just small.  The team is small.  They get exhausted where other teams just send in fresh players.  As stated by a Bulldog player about Maumelle.  We watched them walk out and it never stopped I thought I was a university game.  The parents are to blame for the lackluster football play at Waldron just as much as Davis with his offense simply due to not caring about their kids to make sure that at least maintain a C average to play ball.  Davis can not even recruit in his own school for bigger boys which there are plenty who would be a huge advantage to the team.  Just so I am not a huge bad guy for this, an C average is barely trying now a days, its just effort.  This kids in this school will not even attempt to due worksheets for grades just to keep up appearance because they do not care.  It is a social scene for them and that's it.  The whole enchilada is the problem.  The boys on the team lack hope which would help win some games.  These boys are not just being dominated this year by the 4a its 3a as well.  The last home game which was Booneville even the warm up music which was such a key to my team when I played ball was depressing.  I was sitting in the bleachers and felt like I had already been kicked in the nuts.  They played slow pop music and Adele.  I truly was depressed before the game even started, until the excitement of upbeat music started from Booneville band warming up.  I honestly felt they thought it was bad what they were playing during the warm up so they wanted to help their boys and ours.  The brightest spot for this team is the pep rallies where the team has spirit.  They are fired up but it drops after that.  I have songs on my phone that I would be more than glad to play while they warm up and jack those boys up.  I would even consider the notion of giving pep talks to these boys before the game.  I know how to inspire I know how to get jacked and I know how to make them believe even when all hope is gone.  I love Football.   I have ever since I manned up my sophomore year at Mansfield and put the pads on.  We build a brotherhood as a team.  The words my departing senior brothers left me still ring true to me.  Never quit Never settle.  This was not a phrase they took from coach these were brothers who felt in their hearts that you follow these words and you will be destined to succeed.  I hate seeing these boys suffer like this I hate seeing a team any team suffer like this.  It takes a community people and with out a community, open minded coaches, boys, or girls, fighting to wear those colors and represent your school on that field, even the band needs to be as disciplined as the football team.  It takes us all.  It takes criticism and making changes when they are noticed.  I still stand by my statement early though that if Davis will get rid of the triple option the score board will reflect it in a positive way.  Every game I have been too there has been at least 4 fumbles which as all football fans know normally equals points.  The Razorbacks are a good example for the power of fumbles.  I'm not saying I have the answers but I do know the problems, and they need all of our attention to be fixed in this community and for this team.  These are great boys I really enjoy the players themselves and they deserve to have a win.  One more rant before I quit.  This summer coach Davis had a calender up that counted down the days until the Mansfield game.  The goal was beat them.  I'm sorry yes they are rivals but I'm a big dreamer screw little Mansfield they are 3a coach I would shoot for Pottsville, the number 1 team in your 4a conference.  That is a goal if you shoot high you are amazed at what you do along the way.  Say we did that and did not beat them but beat 5 teams on the way you are already 500 percent better.  Just food for thought.

Thank you CMHawgtracks.  I finally have someone who is understanding of what I am trying to get at.  You know what Coach Davis is about and why I have issues.  The man is delusional in thinking the triple option works and honestly in 4a the triple option does not work at all.  One offensive play the bulldogs need to work on that would work is the pass and quick pass which in the past two years accounted for scores when ran against these teams.

If Waldron wants to be successful in football then they have to have some continuity in their program. In order to do that they need to bring in a coach who can build a program and develop interest from the student body that encourages participation from the ground up. Perhaps Coach Davis is the man. I don't know him but if he is that man then that is what he has to do. Past success in his career is a bonus, even if he was an assistant. If he has the personality and ADMINISTRATIVE and COMMUNITY support to provide that factor, gets the athletes walking the hallways to play, gets the athletes who are "one-sport exclusive" that are not in football to join the team, then that will enhance his chances for success. In addition, whatever his offensive philosophy is, he has to develop those kids that opt to participate to buy in to his philosophy, and/or adapt to his talent available and change his offense accordingly.

I talked to the players the  Monday after the game in question.

I talked to Coach Davis the Tuesday after the game in question.

I talked to Jerry Langston (who was told to "assist" with the team) one week after the game in  question.

I was at the game following the game in question.

I spoke to  Strong players after that game.    I spoke to Coach Davis after that game.   I spoke to Jerry Langston after that game.

I spoke to Strong fans,  players, and coaches at length during the playoffs.   Most notably at the Junction City game.

Because people are being idiots.

Come on.   A new coach coming into a football program that has been flat on its back for a decade CANNOT start saying publicly,

"Well, realistically we might win one game this year".

You know what hearing that does to kids (both actual and potential players)?   Their parents?   The booster club?   

You want to talk about things that will kill morale before a season even begins?    That is a frank,  strictly realistic assessment of a school chances of victories.

It is not arrogant or bragging for a new coach to give an optimistic (even an over optimistic) view of the upcoming season.  Kids need to be told they CAN win.    If they hear "we'll be lucky to win a game" then they are defeated before they even put on their pads.

And kids, parents,  fellow teachers, the booster club, the community need to have reasons to believe in the coach whether that belief yet has concrete justification.

Dayton, You are simply misrepresenting the truth. Coach Langston was their former coach, he is the high school principal, nobody told him to do anything. Coach Davis had a star player, the dominate player in the state in 2AA and possibly all classifications and he didn't know how to use him.

I know you like to argue but you're not telling the truth about what the kids or the fans were and still are thinking about Davis.

I hope Waldron and Davis are successful but I cannot stand someone that misrepresents the truth! You sir are not credible when it comes to what went on at Strong last year!

Very well.   I don't wish to get into details of events at Strong in the immediate aftermath of the Parkers Chapel game last year as some of the people involved might not want it talked about in detail without their permission.    I was only going by what I was told by the people I mentioned earlier.     Given your closer connection to the community and program,  I will of course defer to your knowledge of events.

I see this thread has picked up since I have been off, to think Alma actually thinks they have problems.  No comparison.  One of the reasons I kept up with most of Alma is because my uncle was one of the ones on the board that hired Frank Vines at another school many years ago and he remained friends with him.  Plus I have family that live in Rudy.    How things can change over the years for many once dominating football programs.

WOW!  That is all that I can come up with at this time.

        blaming everyone else for the problems at Waldron.  It's sad, disheartening, and it isn't fair to the kids.

Now, the good: I think Coach Davis has the potential to be a very good coach, he's young, he's likable, when he learns that he doesn't have all the answers and listens to the people around him, he and Waldron will improve.

It is because that is the only enjoyment the kid's have been able to get out of life for so long that it has become the custom. imo.

They are good kid's, they deserve the best and some have tried to help in everyway possible but it comes a time where they and Waldron have to want to be helped and allow it a chance to work.

I don't know the answer, it's painfully obvious that I have been on here fighting what seems to be a loosing battle, but I just don't have it in me to ever give up on kids.

I try to see reason, and what I have been reading on here is very discouraging if and I say if it is true.

I am not sure all the details, so I don't want to misquote anything but I think some bonds were redone and in fact in the original design I heard that they scrapped a indoor practice facility but it can be done at a later time.

They are also looking at taking up the new field to put down astroturf.   

Waldron just hired Coach Davis to try and rebuild the program.

Well Dayton, give us some names of these D-1 talented players from Strong and where they are playing please...And I am neither ignorant or a liar. I love how people resort to calling names when they are wrong and just can't admit it. Face it, you have been proven wrong on the Strong ordeal by a person in the know and you have no clue about Waldron.
Dayton, I guess you really have no clue as to how many coaches, players, AD's, administration and school board members read this forum. You spewing out all the garbage that you do is not gonna help you ever get a coaching job (not that you are worthy of one anyway) in Arkansas. I guess you are a career teacher/volunteer assistant.

This shows what you know about the hiring process! The LAW allows a very limited amount of information to be passed from one employer to another. Basically the only information passed is yes he/she worked here.

This shows what you know about the hiring process! The LAW allows a very limited amount of information to be passed from one employer to another. Basically the only information passed is yes he/she worked here.

And this is an open thread, you may have started it but you don't own it!

True, I don't own it.  That is correct.   Have at it.

You are correct sir. You may only answer if they were employed there, how long their tenure was and if they are available for re-hire. Anything else can result in a lawsuit...

Why don't people give this man a chance it is his first years on the job. there is talent in waldon but u are going to give him a little time u can't turn it around over night

Because people are being idiots.

Come on.   A new coach coming into a football program that has been flat on its back for a decade CANNOT start saying publicly,

"Well, realistically we might win one game this year".

You know what hearing that does to kids (both actual and potential players)?   Their parents?   The booster club?   

You want to talk about things that will kill morale before a season even begins?    That is a frank,  strictly realistic assessment of a school chances of victories.

It is not arrogant or bragging for a new coach to give an optimistic (even an over optimistic) view of the upcoming season.  Kids need to be told they CAN win.    If they hear "we'll be lucky to win a game" then they are defeated before they even put on their pads.

And kids, parents,  fellow teachers, the booster club, the community need to have reasons to believe in the coach whether that belief yet has concrete justification.   
You still don't get it Dayton...you have no clue what is going on in Waldron. FBforlife99 knows what is going on and somehow he knows firsthand. Davis won't be at Waldron long unless some things change and quickly...his ego is getting the best of him...waving a ring in front of the kids isn't gonna get it done...
by the way, you calling someone an idiot is laughable at best. Anybody that knows you and your football philosophy will not hire you. That's why you couldn't get a job and when you finally did it's a teaching job and volunteer assistant...lol...you need to take a long look at your career path and change it to being a librarian... ;)

You are either ignorant or a liar.

Or both.

Not that I care.

And anyone who thinks that Strong won a state title just because of Kenneth Dixon is an idiot.

Strong had Division 1 caliber talent for years with no state football title to show for it.
Well Dayton, give us some names of these D-1 talented players from Strong and where they are playing please...And I am neither ignorant or a liar. I love how people resort to calling names when they are wrong and just can't admit it. Face it, you have been proven wrong on the Strong ordeal by a person in the know and you have no clue about Waldron.
Dayton, I guess you really have no clue as to how many coaches, players, AD's, administration and school board members read this forum. You spewing out all the garbage that you do is not gonna help you ever get a coaching job (not that you are worthy of one anyway) in Arkansas. I guess you are a career teacher/volunteer assistant. I know of several schools to which you applied that the coaches laughed at your app. Believe it or not I could care less...

I am assistant football coach and defensive coordinator at Augusta.   Should you really wish to confirm that,  You may simply call Coach Turner. 

I am more than qualified to be head football coach in Arkansas of a Sr. High football team and I have no doubt I will be hired for such a position eventually.

I do not call people "ignorant" or "liars" unless they are.    You have said that I'm a "volunteer assistant" for Augusta.

I'll give you a clue.   I enjoy coaching football.   I enjoy teaching.   But I would never do either for free.   Because my time is worth something to me.   

I know Venny that sitting in the press box year after year in Mansfield with the gods eye view probably gives you a feeling that you know something about football.   

But your posts here suggest otherwise.   Because you have a "check all the boxes" mentality for football coaching. 

Seven on seven-check
Off season weight room-check
film review-check

Just for starters.   Now some or all of these can be an asset to certain programs.    But doing every last thing that some coach somewhere has had success with is foolish beyond imagination.    A football coach should strive to keep his football program simple.    To find a few things that work and do them well.

Your not expanding your head coaching opportunities by arguing on a high school message board. Also a word of advice if offered the Waldron hc job in the future, turn it down.  You will be untouchable state wide as a varsity coach and most of the pee wee leagues.

Alaskanstorm,  can I ask why?

If you have went to school to be a coach and love helping kids what makes
Waldron such a bad job?

The kids suffer when things are put out there like that.  It tanks a program
before it has a chance.

Does anyone not have compassion to help kids anymore?  It's heartbreaking to see their faces loss after loss.


Davis wanted the job.  I guess he is an exception

The right coach can build a decent to good program anywhere. In a small town case it starts from grade school on up with a coherent coaching style and philosophy that kids can learn and believe in. Winning sure helps. I just wonder if any of these schools have considered seeking outside consultation for what it takes to build a winning program or even one that is competitive. I think I know the answer. They rely on bubba and his cousin bubba on the school board to make suggestions on which bubba they should hire. Bubba comes in with no plan except to exist. Waldron should be a football gold mine. What else is there in that small town? It is in the middle of no where and what options do those kids have that are of football age? I am not a football genius but I have suggestions. Does anyone else?

Post by: alaskanstorm on October 09, 2012, 09:02:35 pm
7a pretty much said it.  Yes a very good to great coach can build a program anywhere.  Unfortunately there aren't very many throughout the state and programs end up with coaches who don't know how to influence kids appropriately.  If Waldron does find the right coach they can have success but the parents and board have to let them do their job.  From what I've heard that is not happening and until it does  its gonna be ruff in dog country.

It doesn't.  The community has been able to afford this great new multi million dollar sports complex, and is trying to re-build( if you want to call it that) support to the kids in Waldron.

Waldron's record is no lie.  It is currently at 0-6 this year.  Waldron if you look at the stats here on FF, Waldron has only won 13 games in the past 8 years.  Which is extremely difficult but Coach Davis has to be allowed time to do what he knows how to do, and hopefully turn Waldron's program into a winning one.

OK for those who want to know my knowledge of Waldron Bulldog football I played for Mansfield my junior year was the reuniting of the Waldron Mansfield rivalry or Battle for 71.  I now live in Waldron have family members who have played have enjoyed the students playing and getting to know the boys personally.  I have friends with most and if not know of them and will do anything to help these boys.  They admit I know football and most have asked me to coach.  I would if not for the time I would be away from my family.  Now I will however be a consultant if they would like my advice and help breakdown teams offense and defense so they can focus on the training for them each week.  I have grown up in this area playing football and know who these teams run.  As far as Coach Davis' hiring I was informed of a rumor which could be true that he was hired as eye candy and would flirt with Waldron's old Superintendent which she was prone to hiring people for doing.  She passed on Coach Mays of Booneville, this is fact part by the way,  by not informing him of the stipends like he asked her to do in person and would not give him the time of day after his interview.  Waldron was suppose to have coach Mays which would be even better for their already awesome basketball team as Coach Mays son is known to be a stud at basketball, and evidently not too shabby at fullback for Booneville.  The issues Waldron has is a complete screw up from the top down and it will take someone with guts to step up and fix it.  From having the testicular fortitude to tell parents off to backing up teachers and even hiring quality not decent looking or flirtatious coaches as aforementioned.  Just to let you in on my background some more my line coach was Coach Marcus Richmond ex marine and all around beast.  This man taught me a lot about character while not always exhibiting it.  He taught us to stand up and never admit defeat.  Waldron needs some one who is stand up and not afraid to be different.

It was established months ago on the Waldron's Coach thread that Coach May withdrew his application.

You must not know much about Waldron or you would know that Waldron is in the process of hiring a New Superintendent according to their schools website.

There was also a article in the Times Record that stated Waldron was rezoning and that New School Board officials have been elected.

The former Superintendent according to the AAA website is an acting Board Member.

Would also add that Waldron's interim Superintendent is Bob Evans from Greenwood who was also that districts Superintendent.

OK for those who want to know my knowledge of Waldron Bulldog football I played for Mansfield my junior year was the reuniting of the Waldron Mansfield rivalry or Battle for 71.  I now live in Waldron have family members who have played have enjoyed the students playing and getting to know the boys personally.  I have friends with most and if not know of them and will do anything to help these boys.  They admit I know football and most have asked me to coach.  I would if not for the time I would be away from my family.  Now I will however be a consultant if they would like my advice and help breakdown teams offense and defense so they can focus on the training for them each week.  I have grown up in this area playing football and know who these teams run.  As far as Coach Davis' hiring I was informed of a rumor which could be true that he was hired as eye candy and would flirt with Waldron's old Superintendent which she was prone to hiring people for doing.  She passed on Coach Mays of Booneville, this is fact part by the way,  by not informing him of the stipends like he asked her to do in person and would not give him the time of day after his interview.  Waldron was suppose to have coach Mays which would be even better for their already awesome basketball team as Coach Mays son is known to be a stud at basketball, and evidently not too shabby at fullback for Booneville.  The issues Waldron has is a complete screw up from the top down and it will take someone with guts to step up and fix it.  From having the testicular fortitude to tell parents off to backing up teachers and even hiring quality not decent looking or flirtatious coaches as aforementioned.  Just to let you in on my background some more my line coach was Coach Marcus Richmond ex marine and all around beast.  This man taught me a lot about character while not always exhibiting it.  He taught us to stand up and never admit defeat.  Waldron needs some one who is stand up and not afraid to be different.

In the words of the immortal Lewis Grizzard, "Don't believe I'd a told that one." :-X

But since you did, was there a motorcycle involved? :o

But at least he volunteered to break down the film and tell them what to do so the coaches can focus on conditioning and such.

I mean, he really knows his football.

Yep, 1991 is when Gus interviewed. I am from Mansfield also 7A...our idiot Super at the time didn't want Gus...lol...as for the coach we have now, we are struggling with injuries (6) and starting sophs (8). He is the only coach to win a conference championship at Mansfield and yes, he hands the ball off 50 times a game...lol...but we love the guy...

Well, maybe not everywhere but it does happen at a lot of places. It actually happened at Greenwood when they hired Harv Welch. Waldrons admin. over the years has been filled with some people who were not on board with athletics.

Diehard I know more than you think I do evidentially if you were from here you would Suzanne Bailey was the old super and was the one who was hiring the coach.  She also refused to give coach Mays the time of day after an interview in which she implied they were really interested in him.  That is why he withdrew his application I would too if the person in charge was ignoring me.  Now as far as all the admin changes I love the interim super awesome guy if he wanted to stay and get things done but it doesn't and made that clear is first day.  There more problems than anybody on here could possible know going on with this program. 

For the other guys breaking down film is the key aspect to defeating a team.  Every coach does that but evidently our coach doesn't and just says running a triple option out of shotgun for every scenario.

I would like you to explain to me how that if Waldron has over 4 fumbles every game running the triple option which involves catching a pitch, how do you think they are going to be able to switch to pass like you want and not fumble it?   Just curious?

Also, Mr. Evan's is a very intelligent man and true I heard he did make it clear as he does every school that he helps that it is only temporary.  I also know that maybe since it listed that New school board members are in place that perhaps things can continue to progress forward in the hiring of a Superintendent down at Waldron. 

I just don't see bailing ship on a new coach who has only been at Waldron what 6mnths?  seems a little premature in my opinion.

I'm not saying that there are not concerns from your stand point.  I don't like to see kid's continually get beat every game.  It is very disheartening.  I would want to see instant results, but you have to be understanding that Waldron's program from just the stat prospective alone is way down.

I am in no way criticizing Waldron, but rather was just merely trying to give support to the kid's and school hoping that possibly the hiring of a new coach might could at least establish a new system from the ground up and give the kid's basic fundamentals to improve upon.

Perhaps during the Spring, with weight lifting programs, studying of plays etc.  The Coach will reexamine what he has been running and come up with something totally different based upon the level of experience each kid has and in what position.  He might change it.

My senior year they had pretty good athletes. Just lacked coaching. Once they got down every kid but about 2 or 3 gave up. Once comes to mind that sadly isn't with us anymore. He was one heck of a quarterback. Now I don't know about the athletes now.

Doesn't everyone think it's about time to support Waldron and the kid's and quit trying to constantly throw stones their way?

It is going to be some of those kids last memories of HS Football and I don't think that registers to some when they start criticizing the kid's.   I don't know what the kid's speed times are or how big they are on the D and O lines but I do know that they need support by everyone.

It is going to be interesting to see what next year holds.  I just pray it gets better after Davis has had a year.  It just has too.

Was on vacation last week and am behind...has Waldron hired a new coach yet? ;D


On vacation in November?

Did you go Elk hunting in Colorado or something?
Nope, got 3 weeks left I have to use by December 31st or I lose it...went to the Casino all week...

I went to a casino once in Tunica with Matt Wallace from Hermitage.

Lost $1.25 in the slot machines.   Decided the heck with it and spent the rest of the trip reading in my hotel room and eating the free food.

It was not free ,it cost you a $1.25. Lol. I couldn't resist.

True enough.   Though I guess you could say it cost Wallace mainly since he claimed to have lost big at the tables.

First, generally speaking, you would need a girl, a truck, a waffle house, and a good radio station to start the evening off right.  Once you have buttered her up with showing up somewhat on time, and you have your flannel shirt tucked in to your wranglers, knocked most of the cow turds off your boots, you would take her to the affle waffle for some fine cooking and the best scattered covered smothered she has every dreamed of!  Then after you guys have shared the same piece of big red to clean the chili taste from your mouth, you would then pull that old beat up truck to the back side of the tractor trailer parking lot behind the ol' waffle house, turn off the dome light, fire up your favorite hootie and the blow fish CD and let the night begin.

I've been playing for quite some time, not a pro by any means. I play a game with a bunch of guys on Tuesdays then another game on Wednesdays with friends. In those games I do pretty well...now at the Casino it's a bit tougher. The guys that play there are pretty good. I have won a few Tourneys and chopped a few...but I don't money near as much at the Casino as I do on the weekday games...and I don't money near as much at the Casino as I go home empty handed...lol...

Hey Coach, what kind of cards do you play at the Big Casino? Is it like nickel ante, quarter limit, name your own game or what? I'm pretty good at Spades if I have a good partner and my opponents don't pay much attention to the game. Solitaire too, unless I run into a good dealer.

Yes you did...when Waldron went south (Mansfield game) you started being a GW fan and stayed on that bandwagon through the championship game...and one can assume that if GW doesn't do so well next year you will be on the bandwagon of whoever is winning...typical Waldron fan...

Waldron is working hard right now during off season.  To my knowledge, all football players are looking forward to spring and 0 players have gave up and quit like in years past.  That is encouraging.

Out of genuine curiousity,  why do you keep asking that?

I really want to know because though I'm not in the area

1) you are the only one I've seen even hinted that Waldron wanted a different coach.

2) The Waldon Superintendent position is coming open.   Standard procedure at most schools is to get a superintendent in place FIRST and then make new staff hires with their input.

Dayton.....Waldron to my knowledge has to hire a Superintendent like you stated.

I'm not aware of any rumors that Coach Davis is looking to leave.

I noticed he didn't say HC...he said Coach, so again....I don't know.

I'm sure time will tell us all what we want to know soon enough.

1. There are no other posters on here from Waldron except the part timer that is also a Greenwood, Charleston, Bentonville, Ozark and anyone else who happens to be winning at the moment fan...the people I know at Waldron do not like the way things are going...again, just what I am told.

That is the nicest thing you have ever called me.....a part timer.

Why would anyone like a record of 0-10!  Would be something wrong if they did.

I was taught, that a scoreboard,  is a Coaches Report Card.   It doesn't look to good at the moment but what it doesn't show is how the kids are trying to buy into his plan for Waldron.

I don't imagine Coach Davis likes the record of 0-10......if I had to guess.

Just got to have time to actually build a program! 

For "some" of the people complaining.....there is going to always be someone who doesn't like the way a Coach is doing some things.  Nothing new...or surprising for that matter.

But you know more than I do Coach Venny....so whatever you say.

Listen DH, it's a new year and anything can happen. Once again let me expound on why I trash on Waldron...The coach made comments about a few programs and their coaches and made comments about how easy they would be to beat...he ran his mouth in front of the wrong people...a coach with any respect for the game and his peers should not act like that. It was totally classless and he got what he deserved this year...
Klatt didn't do that and neither did Rhettman...he needs to learn to shut his mouth, coach football and work hard...and I reiterate the work hard part because they have no Dixons at Waldron...

I don't know exactly what was said,  but I do not know how you would promote the idea of your program becoming successful without indicating that they will be defeating teams that in the past have been beating them with regularity.

What is a new coach of a losing program supposed to say?

"Hey players and parents!    More of the same!!  More of the same!!!!"

I don't know exactly what was said,  but I do not know how you would promote the idea of your program becoming successful without indicating that they will be defeating teams that in the past have been beating them with regularity.

What is a new coach of a losing program supposed to say?

"Hey players and parents!    More of the same!!  More of the same!!!!"
Check your PM's...

Done.

Agreed.

Waldron Coaches can defend themselves if needed.  No need too make people upset with me.  Thanks

Don't worry about coach venny. He is cranky because he supports powers like Mansfield and Waldron. He really gets riled up for those 0 to 2 win Waldron seasons. He also knows Scott County is one of the classiest most affluent areas in the country.

While we're on the subject of Mansfield,  how come with all the expense of a new school and new football field that they didn't put in more extensive visitor seating?   When I was through there in June 2012,  the visitors side looked like the tiny stands you see at Class AA Softball fields (mostly).

Odd because otherwise, I found the Mansfield football field to have rather pleasant design.   Though it didn't have the same old homey feel as the old one where you could watch the games from the gas station across the street.   Or from SONIC if it had been there then (I don't remember when it was built).

You know Dayton that has been a sore spot for many in Mansfield (including myself) since it was built...and the reason is stupid. The bathroom stalls have to match seating capacity and Mansfield at that point didn't have the money to put in permanent visitor seating and the bathrooms so they just used temp. bleachers because they do not make you put in more bathrooms because they are not permanent. Mansfield and the powers that be at the time should have thought this out better before starting the project. I hate the field, even the home stands are too far from the field...I do like the design down in the hole though, that is kinda cool...

Waldron did not do their homework when hiring a new coach.  Davis won for only one reason at Strong, and it was Kenneth Dixon.  If Waldren wants to get better, they need to hire a new coach.

What? Strong hasn't had a losing season since 2005, he did win a state title by riding the legs of Kenneth Dixon, but I think a lot of other coaches would have done the same, he is a beast. Not saying he's a good coach or anything(i've heard that he's questionable but young and has potential to get better), but Strong won before Dixon and Davis were there, and won a playoff game without Dixon and davis this year....

Correct.  Waldron people are gonna have to be patient.  Coaches weren't exactly beating the doors down to get the WHS FB job.  I'm sure Waldron will be improved next season.  If not then its time to start grumbling.  In a situation like Waldron's patience is the key.

Your the only that caught what I meant...I meant that Kenneth Dixon wasn't the reason they were winning, neither was Davis lol

Waldron did not do their homework when hiring a new coach.  Davis won for only one reason at Strong, and it was Kenneth Dixon.  If Waldren wants to get better, they need to hire a new coach.   

What? Strong hasn't had a losing season since 2005, he did win a state title by riding the legs of Kenneth Dixon, but I think a lot of other coaches would have done the same, he is a beast.

I agree...you are just helping me prove my point. Waldron hired Davis because of the ring...he has proved nothing more than he had a stud running back that was head and shoulders better than everyone else in 2A...he rode that horse to Fort Knox and got his gold...

Coach Davis didn't do what any other Coach wouldn't have.....Coach a great athlete that is on his team and some need to remember that while Dixon is an outstanding athlete with God given talent he still had to have some help from his teammates.  There is no I in Team.

I am really surprised that if Coach Davis is as bad as you say why that a lot of kids really respect and work hard for him that along with the amount of players are up from what I hear and that has to mean he is doing something right as a Coach.  Don't you think?

Yes and No.

Waldron just restarted their Pee-Wee football program in the past couple of years.  Some have argued that the lack of the program over the past decade has been what has helped Waldron to decline. Others have said it has No bearing they have to learn a new way once they enter 7th grade...but currently the HS Coaches have been trying to help out the program to try and build a positive attitude in Football so they want to play when older instead of quit.  It all comes down to the current Coaches plan and ideas.   That's all I know.

a Pee-wee program can help a lot.  It gets the kids involved at a young age, the more time they invest in something the less likely they are to quit.  It also gets them accustom to contact and the very basics of football.

I think 7th grade won around half of their games.
8th and 9th won 1 or 2 games
Sr. High 0 games

If someone knows for sure please correct.   Something has to happen this year I would think in a move towards winning you would think but I don't know...I only hope.

Waldren will not be successful under your new Coach until he gets a five star D-1 running back who can call his own plays and completely dominate the game.  It will be easy for him to help out with the pee wee program due to his offense.  Snap the ball to your best player, and everyone else hit the nearest player, and let the star shine.

I did hear that they started construction on a Spring sport practice facility and also a visitors concession stand with restrooms etc. that will benefit the already New facility.

Okay.

I know you have watched a lot of football, especially Greenwood when you get the chance.....This is just a girl observation but I'm wondering if you have ever noticed that when Greenwood is at the line of scrimmage...when the play snaps, how their line projects itself forward gaining a few yards from the start?  I have.  I noticed that at a game I attended for Waldron that the players stand straight up first...then move forward causing loss of yardage.   Is this like a line coaches job etc.?  Does it matter or is it a different technique?  I was just wondering if you ever noticed that about Waldron or is it a meaningless thing.

I know you have watched a lot of football, especially Greenwood when you get the chance.....This is just a girl observation but I'm wondering if you have ever noticed that when Greenwood is at the line of scrimmage...when the play snaps, how their line projects itself forward gaining a few yards from the start?  I have.  I noticed that at a game I attended for Waldron that the players stand straight up first...then move forward causing loss of yardage.   Is this like a line coaches job etc.?  Does it matter or is it a different technique?  I was just wondering if you ever noticed that about Waldron or is it a meaningless thing.
Not meaningless at all and very observant of you. It is basic man blocking or zone blocking. Greenwood if you notice will fire off if running the ball or play action pass to make the defense think it is a run. When passing the linemen will get back on their heels a bit. Greenwood O-linemen are the best at what they do especially for their size. Mansfield on the other hand their linemen just fire off low and cut block every play. In Mansfields offense they are just looking for 3 years and time off the clock.
Waldron being an option team their linemen should be firing off...of course when you have a guy like KD he can just hope that the linemen make contact and he can get north and south and then he is the better man. Not gonna happen at Waldron...if Davis is gonna stay with the triple option he had better teach his linemen how to block...
But yes, to answer your question I did notice that last year...

Thanks Venny.....Isn't this a skill that players learn and develop early on and over a period of time?

It would be hard to correct instantly wouldn't it?     It certainly needs addressed If it wasn't just for that one game.   

I heard Waldron has a young quarterback that could really be developed but the triple option doesn't really allow for passing the ball that much does it?

Either way, it's the Coaches decision....I am hoping for improvement this year.  The kids work hard and deserve to be supported.

In my opinion, too many high school offensive lineman interpret "cut blocking" as "go to the ground".

Last year, I did magic tricks on the "Waldron Coaches Search" thought I might kick it up a notch this year....light up the whole Message Board...seems in all my magic I failed to add WINS to Waldron's Record but I bet we are going to see what happens this year.....

To be continued..... ;)

Because the first coach to actually turn that program around and make it to a playoff game will look amazing, its a great stepping stone for any up and coming coach whos trying to make it big, but can really hurt you if you have losing seasons the only time their there.

This perception by some seems to be embedded in many...I'd like to see it changed for the kids at Waldron.  Granted not many on here support Waldron or if they do, they don't post about them.  I find that sad considering Waldron is a 4A school.

I would love to see the Waldron  program succed.  There has to be more to it than poor coaching (according to several posters).  I like coach Davis. I hope he can get things right.  I do know criticizing his every move isn't gonna help the situation there.  As I've said earlier kids read FF to. Whatever town it's in parents have to support the coach also. When little Johnny comes home from practice and momma and daddy tell him his coach is stupid he is gonna believe them.  I'm sure some people will disagree.

Waldron will be improved this year.. The flexbone takes some time.  They will not be 0-10 this season, but they are still not ready for that district.  Nasty football played there.  Coach Davis is going to do all he can!

Gotta beat those schools 1st!

Speaking of schedules here is Waldron's for this 2013 Season according to the AAA Website!

http://www.ahsaa.org/team_schedule.asp?schID=459&the_sport=Football&the_team=WALDRON HIGH SCHOOL Bulldog&the_class=4A&the_conf=4&the_coach=Shane Davis

Doesn't the schools usually have a 2 year contract etc. with one another on who they play?   Maybe I'm wrong..

Well that's a decent non conf schedule. Paris was a quarter finalists last year, Cedarville made the playoffs and Mansfield is just going to be a tough team with gill as the coach. As far as scheduling an easy non conf schedule. As a coach in a situation like Waldron you have to win some games first. No matter how tough the competition is. Got to have the kids believing. Change the mentality, then at the right time beef up the schedule a little more. A perfect example of a team that has done this is the Lincoln wolves.

Since 2005 Waldron has Won only 13 games according to FF.

An article I read stated that Waldron was outscored 429pts-70 on this past season or 43-7 points per games to finish 0-10.

It's not good by any stretch and I am a very optimistic person but there comes a point where something has to change...I'm hoping it will be better this year for the kids at Waldron.

It looks like it might be worth a shot considering that the Opponent outscored them 43-7 pts per game but I have been told the triple option is hard to learn and this is Coach Davis second year so maybe they will be improved.

Apparently, Ralph Rawlings from Waldron played for The University of Arkansas in 1937 as a back and he also ran track.  He went on to work for The Secret Service and worked on the case of the assignation of President Kennedy and it became later known as the Warren Report according to a few articles.   He also Coached Football and Track in Waldron for 2 years before joining the FBI.

You know deep down that you secretly wish that Waldron turns it around and starts winning or at least starts being more competitive.

You would love to see Waldron and Mansfield battle it out on the field as would I and I'm sure many others.

Waldron needs this but mainly the kids need this.

So...football practice has began...second year for "whistle britches" down in Waldron...how are they gonna be? First game against Mansfield, their biggest rival...Mansfield absolutely humiliated them last year...but, Gill is gone. Gill never lost to Waldron. Brandon Elmore is at the helm now. Can Waldron finally beat Mansfield?

I would like to request prayer for one of Waldron's SR. High Football Players
JW Tomsha.

He received his first Chemo Treatment on Wednesday and will have a journey ahead of him but all things are possible with Christ.   I Pray the Lord continually lifts up JW and his family an friends.

JW Facebook page is Praying for JW Tomsha and it tells more about his condition.

Thank you.

Yesterday I was at work & saw someone who was having heavy rounds of chemo & she was with with her kids & the thought that went through my mind was.... This woman is setting an unbelievable example to her kids. She was setting an example to never quit & keep going because she was carrying herself so strongly. We are all so lucky who have good health. Keep fighting JW.

Diehard, I saw it, very nice preview. I am still baffled as to why Waldron remains down. Hopefully that will change soon.

Venny, since coach Elmore is not new to the program and from what I understand has coached most of these kids in junior high why do you think there will be a drop off in recent success? From what I hear Gill pretty much ran left and ran right most every play.

Well I guess you heard wrong. Gill's biggest asset was his discipline and his work ethic in the weight room. He is a great time manager and is just a winner. I don't know if Mansfield will fall off or not to be honest. I know one thing, from the 3 coaches I talked to in Mansfields conference they are extremely happey he is gone...lol...also, if you think the veer is just run right run left then you no nothing about football. Read up on it sometime...
Title: Re: Waldron's on road to Success
Post by: 7AFBFAN on August 28, 2013, 05:30:46 pm
So the veer doesn't involve handing off or the QB keeping and running to the left or right? I think you know what I meant, most of the top coaches I hear about tend to either have a balanced offense or at least have a good selection of pass plays in their arsenal. Was that the case?

No, he was not balanced at all. He was very much run oriented. What does that matter. Was Bear Bryant balanced? Nick Saban is run oriented. You can keep on about Gill all you want, there is a reason Rick Jones tried hiring him two times before now. In three years he will be a head coach at another school and most likely will be a higher classification school...but everyone has their own opinion...lol...

Venny not trying to start an argument but going off of what film I have seen on Mansfield under the gill era. They never ran a true veer. The qb never read the defensive end to see if he was crashing or squatting. Now am I saying they never ran option? No just in the 2 years when I watched then play mena it was dive left dive right with a little toss every now and then. It worked thought. A simple KISS method.

You see that a lot in HS football. Coach's install an option offense, but then tell the QB pre-snap which "option" to take.

Back to a balanced offense.....Mike leech defines balance as balancing the plays between your play makers. Makes sense when you think about the number of state championships won by the wing t. Other teams that throw primarily balance between various receivers. With that mind set having 4-wide you should throw 80% of the time to be "balanced." A wing t or veer would be run 60-75% to be balanced. But no team is truly balanced to that extent
Title: Re: Waldron's on road to Success
Post by: whippersnapper on September 08, 2013, 08:37:56 pm
Unless you have a college QB. At the end of the night the teams that win are the teams that control the line of scrimmage and able to run the ball when they have to and want to. Just my opinion though. In waldrons case until the talent is up you have to milk the clock and make the game shorter, so running the ball about 80% of the time. Timely play action passes. And a bend but dont break defense. It sounds so simple but I know it would be a challenge in Waldron. But once you get a little success you could start to go up. Now I am not saying Waldron will win a state championship, or even a crap ton of conference. But someone could get them to being avg around .500 every year. Then when you get the talented classes every 6 years or so make a deep run in the post season.

Sometimes a turnaround is not in terms of merely more wins.

When David Bennett took over the Dierks program after it had been in the cellar for nearly a decade his first season they went from three wins (their average each year for more than 5 years) to only four.

But, the losses were different.    Instead of typical 42-6 blowout losses,  losses were more typically of the 27-13 variety.    A general rise in competitiveness not necessarily reflected in wins.

So, are we seeing improvement in Waldron based on your theory? I think not...face it Dayton, your boy just isn't getting it done...

All of this Bulldog bashing will stop after Waldron beats Cedarville on Friday.

Not sure if serious...

And what are you gonna say after this season? His only chance after this Friday to win a game is Subi. If he doesn't beat Subi then he is doomed...as he should be...even if he beats Subi that is still only one win and 3 losses in nonconference against 3A schools...so, you tell me...

I know that Tim Perry applied and that May from Booneville applied...several others as well including some out of state candidates...
Just what did these coaches have to offer that Coach Davis didn't? The Bulldogs worked hard all summer and it will payoff
very soon.
Coach Davis has several "shortcomings"...lol...0-10...wanna bet?
His shortcomings are his assistant coaches! I went to the JR High game tonight and it was very evident that he no help at all. He can't do it all by himself!

I bet they are really regretting making that nice new stadium. Lets face it. Other than the year Kearney was the king there and they won a conference title Waldron has as always been a doormat for other teams. Its sad to see because there is nothing in that town other than a Tyson plant to possibly bring in new people and possibly new talent.

They have a real good team once every 10 yrs or so.  The kearney yrs was the most recent and then back in the mid to early 90's.  Cant remember who the stud was. Maybe cherry??  When they have a real talented athlete they all play like champions.  Then, once that one athlete is gone, everything goes back to normal.  I dont think they believe they are good enough to win.  Any coach that goes in their will have a challenge but if they stick with it, may take 3-5 yrs, and develop the program from the bottom up and change the mindset of the kids/town then they could be decent.  They have the numbers.  Hope they turn it around and get competitive soon for the kids.  They are due another stud to come through though!!

In my opinion Waldron needs complete change if they want a good football team. It starts at the top with the Board being willing to hire a good coach and let him hire at least some assistants that can help with his style of play. Then it goes to the Administration to back the coach and give him the help he needs also. The comes the Booster club. You have to have a Booster Club to help with expenses and basically be a money man for the coaches in helping get things they need. Then the hardest in my opinion is the community. You have to be hard nosed yet get along with the community in general. Your not gonna get along with all of them because there are always knuckleheads but try and get along with most. Then let the coach build his team, his way and give him some time as long as improvement is being shown. Numbers is a good thing but not necessary. I would rather have 23 kids that wanted to play rather than 50 kids that jacked around and caused problems. waldron has problems in every area I mentioned...so, you good people in Waldron, vote in a good board, pressure them to hire in a good Super and other admin people, then get a good coach and promote the coach to the community and it will happen...again just my opinion...

Coach Vinney add accountability by all and a willingness to follow leadership and I could buy in to your opinion.  Ruggedly independent are its people.  To have good leadership also requires good followers.  One without the other does not exist and both are responsible and accountable to the other.  WHS has been a death trap for a number of capable coaches whe had prior successes and later successes.  Its a historical  and blaming coaches for community failures is and has not been the answer.  That is not to be negative about the community....lots of good people trying to do the right thing.  Girls win they don't always have talent or superior coaching they just work hard for each other and are accountable.  Don't ever slight just doing the Right Thing.  Their issues are not X and O or strategic too simple an answer that has failed for over 50 years.

i had an opinion of you that was good until about an hour ago. im still not sure why you jumped my bones so bad. i was just saying that waldron should beat dover this year and to enjoy the win. because it would probably be the only one of the year. didn't realize you were so self-consumed.

Wonderdog.....

It seems that we both have a misunderstanding of what each of us meant.  I misunderstood you to mean your post as sarcastic as how you told Waldron to enjoy....   You misunderstood my post to accuse you directly of slapping me which is not either case.

I sincerely apologize.  I am anything but self consumed.  I have only tried to be supportive of kids.  That's what it is all about...the kids.   I just had noticed that I had received about 4 slaps in hour and was curious what was so bad about them to cause someone to slap me.    It doesn't matter anyway it's all in good fun as some say.   

Again my sincere apologies.   Thank you for being honest.  It is rare at times on this board. :)

Waldron is much improved.  Mansfield is also. 21-20 at half and then things went south for Waldron. When Waldron holds onto the ball they are dangerous. When they put it on the ground as they did in weeks 1 and 2 they are not. (but who is?) #78 and #79 are big physical linemen, #15 is a very good option QB, the fullback hits the hole hard. Seems to me the coaches are doing the best with what they got which is what we should all expect from our coaches.

And the reason they were up at halftime on Mansfield is cause...? Starters?
Venny is the most condescending person on this board. Mansfield and Greenwood or bust, thats his motto. and when something goes wrong,..................or Mansfield had 7 starters out. You never win with Venny, it doesn't matter. Just accept that he and his are better than you and your's all day everyday no matter what, until it happens lol, then there would be 7 starters out.

all i did was state facts in regards to how you carry yourself on here. i read where someone else had posted the 7 starters out as an excuse and was poking a little fun about that, i have no knowledge of whether it is true or not. but referring to you thinking that you are better than everyone, you do. i know it, everyone else knows it, and every now and then you will post some smack talk that actually is funny. you don't offend me with your self-empowered attitude or your arrogance, i however said the exact truth. Waldron? glad that i am not from Waldron. only been there once. too far out in the middle of nowhere for me and the athletics are sub par. i was once told that you are an old man that used to sit his tail in the Mansfield pressbox, any truth to this?

No, Coach Davis brought that on himself when he made some rude comments about other teams and how they would be easy victories for Waldron in front of a few coaches at the annual coaches conference. He hasn't made many friends up here. Then throw in his lack of discipline and you have a real winner...lol...

At this point I think the Waldron faithful are in need of any win from a Davis coached team. What is his record there now 0-13 isn't it.

0-13 tells me that clearly "coaching" is not the sole cause of this programs demise. Waldron is 9-64 since the start of the 2006 season according to fearless friday records, which i think are pretty accurate since the 2001 season. i am not sure how many coaches have been at the helm in that time period, but Waldron's problems go FAR beyond coaching when it comes to the football program.

You are correct when you say that coaching isn't the sole reason for their demise. It hinges on several things...
1. No community support
2. No admin or board support
3. Not willing to hire good assistants
However, when a coach decides that before he ever even coaches his first game at a school and goes into a coaches conference and starts talking bad about other teams and says things like, "well this team is easy to figure out that will be one win' and so on down the schedule and several other coaches hear him say this it puts a target on his back. Not many coaches in this area like "whistle britches" too much these days...lol...I met Klatt and knew Rhettman and both of those guys were likable guys...but this guy just isn't too likable...someday maybe he will learn...

I remember when FF used to be fun but the posters these days are babies and can't take smack talk nor can they deliver it...lolololol...

Wasn't "smack talk" the entire basis for you slamming Coach Shane Davis of Waldron originally?
No, Coach Davis brought that on himself when he made some rude comments about other teams and how they would be easy victories for Waldron in front of a few coaches at the annual coaches conference. He hasn't made many friends up here. Then throw in his lack of discipline and you have a real winner...lol...

At this point I think the Waldron faithful are in need of any win from a Davis coached team. What is his record there now 0-13 isn't it.
0-13 tells me that clearly "coaching" is not the sole cause of this programs demise. Waldron is 9-64 since the start of the 2006 season according to fearless friday records, which i think are pretty accurate since the 2001 season. i am not sure how many coaches have been at the helm in that time period, but Waldron's problems go FAR beyond coaching when it comes to the football program.
You are correct when you say that coaching isn't the sole reason for their demise. It hinges on several things...
1. No community support
2. No admin or board support
3. Not willing to hire good assistants
However, when a coach decides that before he ever even coaches his first game at a school and goes into a coaches conference and starts talking bad about other teams and says things like, "well this team is easy to figure out that will be one win' and so on down the schedule and several other coaches hear him say this it puts a target on his back. Not many coaches in this area like "whistle britches" too much these days...lol...I met Klatt and knew Rhettman and both of those guys were likable guys...but this guy just isn't too likable...someday maybe he will learn...

I disagree.   The majority of coaches are professionals who give no special regard to so called "bulletin board" material.   

Do you really think a coach in that conference actually thinks "I'm going to really crush Waldron this year because their new coach thought we were weak at the Coaching Clinic four months ago......."

Regardless of whether or not you like Coach Davis or the way he coaches, you do not build your football program by forfeiting games.   You can only become better by playing the best.

Waldron plays Booneville according to their schedule.
Yep, if I was Davis I would just skip this week, forfeit all games until the Subi and Dover weeks...that's the only chances he has...
Regardless of whether or not you like Coach Davis or the way he coaches, you do not build your football program by forfeiting games.   You can only become better by playing the best.
Dayton...IT WAS A JOKE...Sarcasm...

I know.   I often respond to sarcasm seriously as it often seems to sap the joy out of it for people.
Sure Dayton...sure...

Ask Coach Davis,  or Jondavid Amerson, or Craig O'Neill, or Jerry Langston, or John Daughtery, or Doug Means, or Dennis Steele.....
Why?

People I've worked with.

You worked for ch 7? Was that before the switch to HD?

Huge chunks of this ginormous thread have little to do with Waldron or anything else.

And what sparked it was Coach Davis trying to talk up the prospects of his team at the 2012 Coaching Clinic where some rival coaches apparently got offended that Davis was not going to announce that Waldron planned to bend over and walk in backwards when they played.

Well, home game this week for Waldron...they have a chance against Maumelle folks. Now before you stop reading this and say Venny is crazy just listen closely. I got some inside info from a guy in Maumelle. Maumelle is a few hours from Waldron. I hear that Maumelle has been having trouble with their buses and they may not make it to the game on time which would constitute a forfiet...Good Luck Coach Davis on Maumelles bus breaking down...lol...

Waldron fans are not happy...lol...I talked to some long time supporters from Waldron the other day and all three of them said the same thing, it wouldn't be so bad the losing and all because we have been through that before, but his attitude and smart mouth towards the kids, and the community is getting old...

Coach Davis himself said that he would consider a four win season to be successful.     So I'll go with that as it conforms to a standard he himself aimed at.   

And that said,  from what I've heard from people in the area,  Coach Davis has not exactly enjoyed the support in Waldron that he was led to expect was "right under the surface".

"And that said,  from what I've heard from people in the area,  Coach Davis has not exactly enjoyed the support in Waldron that he was led to expect was "right under the surface"."

First of all, as a parent of a player that has played under Davis, his attitude towards the players, parents, and community has contributed to this lack of support.  Last year, he had plenty of support from everyone who mattered, but once the Bulldogs lost a few games the excuses became rampant.  No talent, no support, and the kids have been taught wrong under previous coaches.  Anyone who questioned the taste of the kool-aid was pushed aside so that he could surround himself with players and parents who would follow blindly for playing time.  There is plenty of support in the community for the Bulldog players; our fans still travel to see and support them.  It becomes difficult to support the coaches, however, when they tell the kids that it is lack of execution and not coaching that is causing every loss.  Yes, sometimes the kids may not execute to perfection, but the coaches are not coaching to perfection, either. Sometimes you just have to be mature enough to acknowledge that you make mistakes, also...that would go a long way towards re-gaining some support. 

Another thing...our online "sports information source," that wrote an article about every loss under Coach Klatt, hasn't written an article about a game since the Bulldogs' loss to Mansfield last year.  That's pretty supportive, in my book.

Coming from a place that has had limited success in the last 10 or so years (DeWitt) I have an opinion. If the kids don't buy what the coach is selling you will never succeed, I don't care who or how much support you have from the outside. The only people that need to buy in are the players.

Okay Junior, you just said it so get ready for a big taste of crow buddy come week #10...4 wins...6 games left...where are the 4 wins coming from...let's analyze...

Maumelle - home game and if the buses break down like I said he has a chance...0-5
Subiaco - home game and an actual chance of winning...1-5
@ Dardanelle - lol...not even worth talking about...1-6
Mena - home game and Mena is banged up I hear...still...1-7
@ Dover - another chance at a win. If he loses this game he should be fired on the bus...2-7
Pottsville - again no chance...2-8

So if he does not achieve the 4 wins that YOU and Whistle Britches set out there then he has not been successful...Right? So he should be shown the door...I will make sure my buddies down there read this...lol...this should make for a fun meeting...lol...

What does that have to do with with anything? Just because there is one president does not mean that he is a good one, but even the president has advisors.  And just because Coach Davis THINKS he's a god, doesn't make him one.  Even so, surely you wouldn't compare any head coach to God in heaven.

Dayton, you act as though you are getting your feelings hurt...but let's be real, "Whistle Britches" has not improved the Waldron football program. Yet you feel the need to come on here and defend him to the hilt and expose yourself to more criticism. Why? Is it really worth it to you? I know Whistle Britches is on here and has a name. Why doesn't he just PM me and talk to me? I'm sorry this offends you but really, it has nothing to do with you. If you can come up with anything viable to defend his record at Waldron or his actions at the coaches meeting then please list them. I dont want hearsay, I want proof of anything you have. Truth of the matter is he thought he was gonna come up here and roll through everybody like a bulldozer...and that hasn't happened. He bragged about and offended some coaches (not just Mansfield) and has in two years made a bad name for himself...I know he told you different but there are way too many people heard his nonsense for it not to be true. So...ball is your court Dayton... ;)

Part of it (beyond being a former associate and friend of Coach Davis) is that I really loathe what I see as "piling on"  and a "herd mentality" whether it comes to football, politics, the social arena or anything else.

Everyone would admit that Waldron was far, far from an ideal situation and that even a coach with a fistful of championship rings might have to suffer through losing seasons.

I'm never going to condemn a coach who comes into a long time losing program and tries to change the overall mentality by doing a little boasting and strutting.    Do you really expect a coach to tell everyone "we'll be lucky to win a game"?

Yes.....I realize that Hootens has Greenwood Bulldogs winning by +20 points along with Alma winning by so many points etc.... That is accurate in my opinion.   The averages for Waldron is probably right as well.

Looks like all of Maumelle's buses are up and running, so I think the Hornets will make it to the game.  With that being the case, Maumelle will win by 35 points, and the starters will rest in the second half.

They have had assistant coaching positions only, but they also required another sport that I have no (or very little) background in such as basketball and baseball.   Or they had a teaching requirement that I am not certified in such as secondary math.

I was in the ninth grade when Coach Bennett was a Sr.   He and I never played on the same teams though of course given it was (and is) a small school,  I knew him pretty well. 

While in general I've always liked the idea of coaching at Dierks,  I must confess the appeal of the idea has lessened considerably in the last couple of years since I do not have close family in the town anymore.

Semi-related - our 7th grade buses got stuck in traffic on the way to Sylvan Hills yesterday.  They arrived like 10 minutes before the start of the game, got off the bus, did a few stretches, then proceeded to go out and win 26-0.  LOL

Back in the day my Grandpa used to coach baseball. He was a true believer in team play and that not any one player was bigger and better than the team...nice concept huh, too bad that isn't the case these days...lol...anyway, when a player started getting to thinking he was good or the best player on the team or just plain getting an ego he would tell him, settle down "Whistle Britches"...so I always took the term to mean that it related to someone who thought they were better than everyone else. The Waldron coach is like this...he really thought he was gonna come up here and teach these guys in the River Valley how to coach football...and he made some disparaging remarks at a coaches clinic...so now he is called "Whistle Britches"...someone down there in Waldron needs to put him in his place...

This is just a general observation and I know that most of you are just having a good time...:) but isn't it a little hypocritical how "some" can blast Waldron constantly but yet give praise to the Little Rock Hall Warriors?

Those kids line up every game to play the same as the kids at Waldron.   

I understand that it's not really directed so much at the kids as it is at the Coaches.....would that be a correct assumption? 

I honestly don't know how the kids are able to line up every week, year after year it seems in some cases and still show dedication to a sport.   They must truly love football.  That kinda speaks for itself in a way that the football program in Waldron is not completely gone.

How do you know what Coach Davis does during the summer with his players, are you there everyday to see if the kids are working hard to get better. You don't have to do 7 on 7 to have a sucessful program, a lot of schools in ar. don't and have great programs.

That could be said about any sport offered at any school couldn't it?   But I think that in some cases the longer a program goes without wins the more the numbers start decline so those kids are no longer participating in sports.  It can come down to if the kids have bought in to the Coaches system as well can't it?

The longer this program loses and the number of coaches that have came and went (How many coaches have been at waldron since 2000?) in that program has a lot to do with this road. If the players cant get a stable coach that they can believe in and the coach to believe in his talent it will be a long time before it gets back on track. This program might have to drop to 3A before it has a chance at having another winning season and thats a stretch unless they get someone in there that will actually stick it out and build a program. Its kinda like a young man that never had a father figure in his life. Noone there to give him structure or guidance. Thats what Waldron needs.

All Waldron needs is one of 3 things:

2.) Another Travis Mays
3.) Another Sean Kerney

Any one of those 3 would expedite Waldron's trip on the road to success.

Where Oh where has Ole Dayton Gone,
Oh where oh where could he be?

Do ya see now Dayton how this whole being lazy and not doing 7 on 7 has gotten Whistle Britches...I'll answer for you...No you don't...lol...
How do you know what Coach Davis does during the summer with his players, are you there everyday to see if the kids are working hard to get better. You don't have to do 7 on 7 to have a sucessful program, a lot of schools in ar. don't and have great programs. This comming from a guy who set in a booth watching a bad fb.team become a good team when Gill took over.This is where you became an exspert!!!
Being a coach and a teacher you would think your grammar skills would be a bit better...lol...kinda like your coaching skills...both suck...lol...and for your information, it doesn't take a rocket engineer to tell when a program sucks...and yes, I do know what he does during the summer, it is well documented...
Wrong, not a coach or a teacher grammars good but i did misspell "expert". As for the word sucks, your the one that has to get up every morning and look at yourself in the mirrow.
The "mirrow"...lololololol...well all I can say is this, if you can't figure out that Waldron sucks then there is no hope for you I guess...and I have no clue about teacher, but yes you are right...you are not a coach...lol...
Does your employer know you post FF during working hrs.

You're kidding right Venny?    The only reason a coach has to cry over a football game is if he has a player seriously injured in one.   

Losing games and even whole seasons is terrible for the kids.   Many (seniors) will never have a chance again.   But coaches can keep going as long as they are physically able.

  If Shane Davis never wins a game at Waldron he will almost certainly get another head coaching job somewhere else.    Andy Werb endured winless season after winless season at Dermott and when their football program finally folded for financial reasons he pretty quickly found another head coaching position.

Sad?   Continuing on despite adversity I would think is an admirable trait.   I think it also shows that administrators know full well that the head coach alone can very seldom turn a program around or improve it.

A good head coach for a losing program can only be the solution if head coaching was the main problem to begin with.

No one should point fingers.

On the other hand taking responsibility when you've done nothing wrong either through action or inaction is being intellectually dishonest.

Last post on this topic.Did a little research on Waldron and Mansfield Fb. Program since 1960 to present. This comes from the Almanac of Ar. High School Fb. Waldron record 183-340-8 Mansfield record 200-274-7. Take Gills wins away while he was there and Waldron will have more wins. Can't understand why one man would have so much hatred for a Town,program,coach and players.You can see by these schools records that Fb.has'nt been good at either school.

The school website says otherwise.
I knew that would get you out...lol...0-7 Dayton...lol...

Blatant lies about me tend to do that. 

Which accounts for many of my responses in this thread.
Well, don't cry...but hey I bet Whistle Britches is...lol...

You're kidding right Venny?    The only reason a coach has to cry over a football game is if he has a player seriously injured in one.   

Losing games and even whole seasons is terrible for the kids.   Many (seniors) will never have a chance again.   But coaches can keep going as long as they are physically able.

  If Shane Davis never wins a game at Waldron he will almost certainly get another head coaching job somewhere else.    Andy Werb endured winless season after winless season at Dermott and when their football program finally folded for financial reasons he pretty quickly found another head coaching position.
Sad isnt it...

Sad?   Continuing on despite adversity I would think is an admirable trait.   I think it also shows that administrators know full well that the head coach alone can very seldom turn a program around or improve it.

A good head coach for a losing program can only be the solution if head coaching was the main problem to begin with.
A good head coach would take responsibility for his program and quit pointing fingers.

No one should point fingers.

On the other hand taking responsibility when you've done nothing wrong either through action or inaction is being intellectually dishonest.

Remember, in every walk of life, it is possible to make no mistakes yet still lose.   
you know Dayton I knew your football IQ was bad but dear god I had no idea it could get worse...

Care to post actual factual evidence regarding my "football IQ"?

I have no doubt that Coach Davis is in part responsible for Waldron's failure to win their customary two games per season.

Yes it would have been different. Coach Perry is a coach that is a winner, not a one hit wonder. he never had to rely on just one player to have a great team. He also coached at a higher level. I can tell you for a fact that there were several coaches in this area glad Perry didn't get the job...

I suppose it would mean nothing to you that Coach Tice of Harrison (at that time) when he interviewed me for an assistant coaching position told me flat out that his coaching staff did not work on Saturdays (for obvious reasons).

I would assume given that you are a major football fan that you are familiar with Coach Tice's background and credentials?    I also assume that you assign  him a decent "football IQ".

I've never seen the point of 7 on 7 and I do think it teaches very bad habits that do not serve football players well.   I have explained that in detail.    And I stand by what a former long time head coach said about it regarding its worth and why most coaches do it.

I believe in working out hard on weights and conditioning in the summer.

No.   Think more obvious and practical.   By the time the coaching staff drags in late Friday or early Saturday from away games they will be too exhausted after a short nights sleep to get any  useful work done.

Why?    You think people function well at their jobs on four or five hours of sleep? 

No doubt Venny "Press Box Jockey" Slocombe or whatever will say that attitude is not "preparing your team".

As though he has a clue about how to coach of course.

A couple quick pts.  The old coach Tice, the style he played a few yrs back,  was strictly a power guy so yes he hated 7 on 7.  About the not working thing.  That is absolutely ridiculous.  Football season is short.  That's a football coaches main job so why would you not want to prepare to the max?  Do you know anything about Rick Jones @ greenwood?  He loves 7 on 7 's and his entire staff works a seven day work week in season.  He seems to know what he's doing.

And I was told that Waymire, while he was at Carlisle routinely finished practicing by 5 o'clock each day.

Guess he must've been slacking off as he never won a state title ;D :P :-\

Also when it comes to practice,  Dawson of Nashville in his speech at the annual coaching clinic three or four years ago said flat out that his football practices were NEVER a minute over 2 hours.   No more.   No less.   He basically said that a coaching staff that could not prepare a team with two hour practices were not very good coaches.

But then I suppose if Dawson hadn't slacked off he could've won four straight state titles instead of three ::) ::) ::)

you could come in at 10 and work till 5 on Saturdays going over film and what not and have plenty of rest. Waldron hasn't made the playoffs and they don't have any long drives to a conference games. I'm not sure where you get the 4 hour sleep thing from

Some people can't function with 8-12 hours of sleep.   What's your point?


It's football.  If you actually know football and love football.....it should be 110% dedication.   Eat, sleep, think football.    No Excuses.....especially when a program is suffering in certain areas that need addressed.

I was referring to Tice's reasoning regarding Harrison.   And IIRC, he was a state championship winner there.   Every program is different of course.

Well Dayton the Joan of Arc........what other profound statements do you have?   Every program is different?   Really?


I think it's pretty obvious that Waldron is.    I'm thinking that is Why it's needs change to happen....

People need to understand that Waldron is on a 21 game losing streak.....I believe anyway.    It's not just at the Senior High Level Waldron is losing at.....it's from Pee-Wee on up.     Can you coach speed?    No....but you can Coach defense and how to wrap up a tackle.....and wait till your team can come help....you have to make tackles....and not let the player beat you to outside if the players understand the read in that split second they have to make a decision.   Most from what I have been told is that some players don't understand what to do.   They look lost.  For instance in the Mansfield game a player didn't know if he should cover or touch the ball the not....in the split second he looked at the Coach for what to do....the other team recovered it.   Delay....in reaction.   That costs a team.  Of course what do I know?    I do know you can't blame the players.    It seems that basics need to be covered.    How to tackle properly etc.   

Offense I hear is better stat wise? at Waldron while Defense is worse.    Granted, I think Waldron has put more points up on the board this year than last as well.

Who is the Defensive Coordinator?

I agree on the emphasis on fundamentals like tackling and blocking.    Personally, I believe that way too many head coaches today spend too much time on elaborate "schemes" and too little on the very basics of football.

Now, this is often a problem where you have a head coach come from a large program to a small program.   A large program with a big staff might easily have a number of lower ranking assistants working to teach fundamentals to players while the head coach and coordinators work on the "bigger picture".

I think Waldron has 4 assist Coaches or something like that....it's not a lack of that when there is only around 30 something players.    That splits up fairly well.   In fact I think on a thread somewhere on here......lord know where it is....that some stated that he would probably want to bring someone in.     

Anyway.....it takes time for change to happen.   It's not instant.

How much time? Waldron has already taken a wrong turn yet again. This is a school that wins in basketball, wins in baseball yet can't win in football. I am very familiar with Waldron and I can tell you this, you CAN win in Waldron with the right coach. It just takes the right guy and the last two have not been the right guy...

While I disagree with Venny on a great deal.   Obviously.   I think he has a point here.   How much time do you wait for a program to turn around?    While you can make a case that turning around a program "takes time".    I've even had some coaches tell me to my face that they consider SIX YEARS to be the requirement to turn around program, that is the time it takes the 7th graders they take on to become seniors.

Personally, while the reasoning may be sound, you can't reasonably ask several years classes of football players to sacrifice themselves for the supposed "future" of the program.

Dayton I'm not sure who the Defensive Coordinator is......it might be listed on Waldrons website.   


I think Waldron has 4 assist Coaches or something like that....it's not a lack of that when there is only around 30 something players.    That splits up fairly well.   In fact I think on a thread somewhere on here......lord know where it is....that some stated that he would probably want to bring someone in.     

Anyway.....it takes time for change to happen.   It's not instant. 
How much time? ...

While I disagree with Venny on a great deal.   Obviously.   I think he has a point here.   How much time do you wait for a program to turn around?    While you can make a case that turning around a program "takes time".    I've even had some coaches tell me to my face that they consider SIX YEARS to be the requirement to turn around program, that is the time it takes the 7th graders they take on to become seniors.

Personally, while the reasoning may be sound, you can't reasonably ask several years classes of football players to sacrifice themselves for the supposed "future" of the program.
Dayton you need to end this thread, you're not going to win this argument. As posted earlier, history is not on Waldrons side.Venny's right, to build a Fb. Program is a 12 month job not a 9 or 10. You can't count on one class you have to have 3or 4 good classes in a row with some ability and great attitude. As for working on week ends,coaches have to meet weather it's on Sat. Or Sundy after Church to break down film to get ready for next game.

So you quit?   Blame the kids?   Say that Waldrons History is why they can't win?

You started this thread and 22 pages later look how bad it's gotten.All these bad things  said about Waldron where these kids can read it,is not going to help matters.These kids need support and encouragement and it's going to take a lot of hard work to turn this program around.

I believe the time it takes to turn a program around is completely dependent on how well the players accept what the coach is offering. Having gone through this personally I have a little feel for it lol.

That's exactly right.   I did start this thread.  If you don't like it then I suggest like others have suggested in the past you block it or simply don't read it.

I have also asked that this thread be locked on numerous occasions.   What's your point?

I'm not responsible for Vennys or anyone elses posts.  I'm responsible for mine alone.  I can't help that they have chosen to say what they say about Waldron.    Coach Davis's Record pretty well speaks for itself. IMO.   I figure the community of Waldron can decide for themselves what is happening.   As far as kids reading the board....I have also stated many times on here and other areas of the board that Kids do read the board as a reminder to some.   Just ask the other posters.

Point out where on this thread that I have said anything negative about the kids?    You can't.   

You still failed to answer the question if you QUIT?  Blame the kids?  or Blame the History of Waldron?

Idoknow..........I do know you don't know Jack.   

I also know that when this thread was started it was in support for the kids in Waldron.

How much time? Waldron has already taken a wrong turn yet again. This is a school that wins in basketball, wins in baseball yet can't win in football. I am very familiar with Waldron and I can tell you this, you CAN win in Waldron with the right coach. It just takes the right guy and the last two have not been the right guy...
when exactly has Waldron been winning baseball games? i know that they have been VERY sub par for the last two seasons with no knowledge of prior years.

Guys, let's just let this go...Dayton will never get it and will never be a successful head coach anywhere...Dayton wants a paycheck for doing nothing...he doesn't want to spend anymore time than necessary...he is the welfare of high school football... ;)

I haven't laughed so hard at a thread like this one in a long time ! In passing, here's what I've learned.
Dayton is a guy who is supposed to be a coach.
Waldron is NOT a Football school !
Dayton and Venny are not related !
Waldron is NOT a Football school !
Dayton is a DEMOCRAT !
Waldron is NOT a Football school !
at least Paragould has not went 0-10 since the stats being kept on fearless. they actually won 3 last year!

Offense I hear is better stat wise at Waldron while Defense is worse.    Granted, I think Waldron has put more points up on the board this year than last as well.   



Who is the Defensive Coordinator?

I agree on the emphasis on fundamentals like tackling and blocking.    Personally, I believe that way too many head coaches today spend too much time on elaborate "schemes" and too little on the very basics of football.

Now, this is often a problem where you have a head coach come from a large program to a small program.   A large program with a big staff might easily have a number of lower ranking assistants working to teach fundamentals to players while the head coach and coordinators work on the "bigger picture".

The DC stepped down, Davis took over the defense the last game and we gave up the most points for one game that we have all season.

I haven't heard anything.    I told you, your sources are better than mine.

What was the reason?
the defense was too good so to even things out he resigned.

Offense I hear is better stat wise at Waldron while Defense is worse.    Granted, I think Waldron has put more points up on the board this year than last as well.   



Who is the Defensive Coordinator?

I agree on the emphasis on fundamentals like tackling and blocking.    Personally, I believe that way too many head coaches today spend too much time on elaborate "schemes" and too little on the very basics of football.

Now, this is often a problem where you have a head coach come from a large program to a small program.   A large program with a big staff might easily have a number of lower ranking assistants working to teach fundamentals to players while the head coach and coordinators work on the "bigger picture".

The DC stepped down, Davis took over the defense the last game and we gave up the most points for one game that we have all season.
I was waiting for someone to mention that so Dayton wouldn't think I was just hackin on whistle britches...dogdad, did you hear why he stepped down?

Rumor is that he and another assistant had an argument about tackling fundamentals. He stepped down as DC but is still on staff.

Ok, Dayton I need to know why Waldron doesn't practice in full pads? I'm not talking Monday, Thursday or Friday, they only go only shoulder pads and helmets all week. What is that all about? All the kids have started doing now is tackling high and allowing more yards after contact. Please help me understand.

I agree with you that more and more kids today including college try tackling too high and allow more yards, but I know a state champion team from last year that only goes shorts and pads through out weekly practices once the season has started.

I have no idea.   Coach Davis and I rarely talk during the season and even more rarely about our respective teams.   At least not the detailed aspects of coaching.

For one,  I've always believed on full contact on Monday, Tuesday, & Wednesday with Tuesday being your longest, hardest full pads practice, Wednesday being your shortest and least contact,  Monday falling somewhere in between.

Shorts & helmets on Thursday to basically simply review assignments and substitution plans.    Last minute film work too.

I've heard of some teams that never had full contact practices after the season began.   Usually those teams are either:

1) Have serious numbers problems (like fewer than 20 players) and real injury worries

and/or

2) The players are mature and very well coached in fundamentals so they have no real need for regular contact.   They can just spend all their practice time of developing and refining plays on offense and recognition on defense.

Those teams of course are very rare.

By the way,  IIRC having the players go "shell" with helmets, shoulder pads.......and well basically EVERYTHING but the knee pads is a way to get around AAA restrictions on "full contact" practices in the summer.    If they are not in full protective gear,  I don't think they have to count practice games and drills as being "full contact".

I could be wrong.   Seems the rules get crazier with each passing year.

It is very common for teams to not "pad up" for practice during the season.  To make deep runs in the playoffs you need to limit the chances of getting injuried.  If 1 or 2 key kids get hurt during practice then your chances of winnning a state championship are greatly reduced.

I would like to know how many schools do full contact tackling during the season.  I bet the number is lower then you think.

Except that of course "Venny" is lying and I have been the defensive coordinator at Augusta for the last two years.    A check of the website can easily confirm that.

My second year as assistant at Strong was Shane Davis's first (and only) year as assistant (offensive coordinator). .   He became head coach subsequent to then and Strong won state his second year as head coach.

"Venny" took great umbrage to Coach Davis supposedly making comments at the coaching Clinic in June, 2012 where he was overheard to suggest a couple of games would be relatively easy wins for Waldron.    Why "Venny" who has never coached football a day in his life (I believe he mentioned that himself)  would care what an opposing coach would say the summer before the season began is a mystery to me.

Nor do I understand why he continually denigrates a coach who has won a state title (Davis)  and a football program with multiple state titles in its history (mine) is beyond me.

Whatever Dayton, look at what the great Shane Davis has done at Waldron 0-18. Compare that to what Dixon has done in college. Face it just because you win a state championship doesn't mean you are a state championship caliber coach.

I do not lie.   Least of all to an  internet nonentity such as yourself.     Most least to something like coaching assignments that is easily confirmable online.

What you degrade as the "armpit of Arkansas" managed three state championships in football out of four state title appearances and made it to the state quarterfinal game in 2007. 

Can't seem to remember exactly what your beloved Tigers have done over the same time period.

But then again, no one cares.

Except that of course "Venny" is lying and I have been the defensive coordinator at Augusta for the last two years.    A check of the website can easily confirm that.

My second year as assistant at Strong was Shane Davis's first (and only) year as assistant (offensive coordinator). .   He became head coach subsequent to then and Strong won state his second year as head coach.

"Venny" took great umbrage to Coach Davis supposedly making comments at the coaching Clinic in June, 2012 where he was overheard to suggest a couple of games would be relatively easy wins for Waldron.    Why "Venny" who has never coached football a day in his life (I believe he mentioned that himself)  would care what an opposing coach would say the summer before the season began is a mystery to me.

Nor do I understand why he continually denigrates a coach who has won a state title (Davis)  and a football program with multiple state titles in its history (mine) is beyond me.
I proved you to be the liar several posts back yet you refuse to acknowledge that, imagine that...Augusta is the armpit of Arkansas...not my fault...as for Davis that has been proven also...shouldn't you be working getting ready for next Friday? Oh wait, I forgot you don't work Saturday's...lolololol...no wonder you got 60 dropped on you last night...

I do not lie.   Least of all to an  internet nonentity such as yourself.     Most least to something like coaching assignments that is easily confirmable online.

What you degrade as the "armpit of Arkansas" managed three state championships in football out of four state title appearances and made it to the state quarterfinal game in 2007. 

Can't seem to remember exactly what your beloved Tigers have done over the same time period.

But then again, no one cares.
Yes you do lie on a regular basis, and I proved it. 60 Mr. DC, care to explain that?...lololololololololololol...Funny story, I talked to a coach that interviewed Dayton for a coaching position two years ago...he said when he met him he actually thought the guy walked straight off the set of Revenge of the nerds...with absolutely no make-up...true story...Mr. Volunteer DC at the University of Augusta...Dayton, you are the man! Well...next to Davis of course...

Also given you are apparently an expert on the subject,  just how many extra hours on the weekend do you think would be required to make a substantial difference in the performance of a team?

Next, following your line of reasoning,  you have described my school as the "armpit of the state" IIRC and said repeatedly that I was a poor coach and a "loser"  (guess that is technically true as the teams I've been a part of coaching have won 46% of their games.     Given those things that you apparently believe in,   can you explain exactly what difference I would be able to make  with two or three extra hours on Saturday & Sunday.

I do not have an Iphone.    I do use social media either.     And when you are at home waiting for a burger to cook it is quite easy to type out a dozen or so online messages.

And with a decent laptop and DVDs of high school games today, it is a simple matter to perform a film breakdown.   In fact,  on the bus trip home from away games,  one of the other coaches generally plays the game film for the players as he copies it.   

So technology has made things much more efficient than even three or four years ago.   It is even better when you have Huddle.

You are correct.   Our head coach has been requesting it but the school hasn't approved buying it yet.   I have seen the game films broken down using it from Bald Knob (to name one) and I've been impressed with it and how it improves recognition.

You really should read the whole thread before making assumptions...Whistle Britches brought this all on himself when he made the statement that some teams in non-conference and conference would be "easy" wins every year...and he was stupid enough to do it right in front of coaches he would be coaching against...
Listen, we all know that coaching at Waldron is no easy task. Waldron was in shambles after Rhettman left and wasn't in great shape when Klatt left. But he has done nothing to help the situation, he has done nothing more than alienate the people who could help him...
The first thing he should have done is build relationships with the community, fans, players and certainly his assistant coaches...

Listen people.......Waldron is a good community with good people and kids from my understanding. 

They are suffering right now in the area of Football and it isn't a new road that they haven't seen before, sadly.     Waldron has been down for a few years.     The fundamentals of football in Waldron need to be established from pee-wee on up.    And people need to quit blaming kids and start taking responsibility for their actions.    All this finger pointing is making a bad situation worse.....in that it's causing kids to stop believing in their Coach.....but having said that, players don't like shouldering the blame alone if this is what is happening...There is no easy answer....IMO.

They have a brand new facility, they have people wanting to see change and most have grown inpatient.   It's not fun being beat 52-7 or not winning a game since the Subiaco game when Klatt was still in Waldron.

But hey if you talk to Dayton Kitchens Davis should be coach of the century. I sure hope Whistle Britches don't stop real fast or make a hard right turn cause Dayton will have a broken nose...lol...

I've never claimed that Venny.
You very well may not have said Coach of the Century but you talk about him like he is the second coming of Tom Landry...

He is a good coach who has coached a state championship team
What has he done besides that year with a D-1 athlete at the 2A level? Exactly...

IIRC, his team the year before that was 10-2.
Was Dixon on that team?

Of course.  He was a junior.   But you and others are being ridiculous if  you think the head coach had no real role in developing Dixon as a player.   I doubt Kenneth would ever claim that.

Dixon was a natural...kinda like McFadden...just toss him the ball and let him run...Again, what has Whistle Britches done without a D-1 player? Give me something viable here Poindexter...

Of course Whistle Britches taught him everything he knows and then some. I heard that the La Tech coach calls Whistle Britches every Saturday morning for advice...and his second call is to Dayton for some advice on how to give up just under 60 every week...lol...

Not completely.    But I have no doubt that how he used Dixon helped him develop into a great players.

Note,  when I was at Strong I directly disagreed with Davis about how he was utilizing Dixon and told him so to his face.   Given the results just two seasons later it is obvious that Davis was right and I was wrong.

Here is maybe why we shouldn't trust Dayton and his football knowledge...

He is currently a volunteer assistant at Augusta and is the self proclaimed defensive coordinator...

Through 8 games Augusta has given up 306 points for an average of 38.2 points per game...now as if that were not bad enough...

In Augusta's 4 losses they have given up 220 points for an average of 55 points per game...

In Augusta's last 4 games they have given up 216 points for an average of 54 points per game...

Let's analyze a little further...
Augusta's 4 wins came against

Quitman 1-7
Marvell 0-8 (and forfeited last week due to lack of players)
Cedar Ridge 1-7
Marked Tree 5-3

So if I was the head coach at Augusta I think a couple of red flags might be popping up around week 8...maybe defense is the problem and maybe we should hire a coach instead of using a volunteer assistant...just a thought...you know the old saying, "You get what you pay for"... ;)

I don't have to read every post Venny, just the current page. You have a beef with someone and your constant bad mouthing of the Waldron staff does nothing but make an already bad situation worse. I don't know where all of the posters on this thread are from, but it seems that the people closest to the situation aren't nearly as vocal as you. Having my home team go through many losing seasons, I understand the heartache. I also understand its not always the coach. Saying you want to win and actually having the will to win are obviously different.

Well two things for you...
1. If it bothers you so bad I wouldn't read it...
2. Maybe you should come to Waldron and be the coach, you seem to have the answers...

Seems to me that if anyone had a 24 page vendetta thread against a PA, Greenwood or Shiloh coach it would be removed or locked faster than you say touchdown, but I guess this is one ok since it's only Waldron?

Personally I have no stake or interest in Waldron, but dang man, can't ya'll shut up about it? It doesn't matter who's coaching Waldron, they're just not very good, we get it. Looks like there's only 2 or 3 people that actually care; Venny, Dayton and maybe DiehardFBfan. Can't ya'll just PM each other and let this thread die? Please?

I know I don't have to read it, but when it keeps popping up at the top of the page with "NEW" on it, every hour it gets a little tiresome. Just my opinion, however I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way.

Waldron still has decent athletes, just no one to bring out their potential. The current staff wants the players to do what they say but then scream at them when it doesn't work. The program is really becoming an embarrassment and I don't blame it on the kids.

Yes, he was head coach of a championship team, but he wasn't doing the coaching. Anyone that was 3-3 with Kenneth Dixon, wasn't doing something right.

If I were the coach, you'll never guess what the first thing on my agenda would be? You reply to every post within minutes on this thread. Nothing better to do?

Okay, no money involved. How about a friendly bet...If we ever hit a playoff game  at the same place the bet is a coke...deal? There is a good chance of meeting up at a playoff game sometime. These days I just travel around and watch different teams...

But hey if you talk to Dayton Kitchens Davis should be coach of the century. I sure hope Whistle Britches don't stop real fast or make a hard right turn cause Dayton will have a broken nose...lol...

I've never claimed that Venny.
You very well may not have said Coach of the Century but you talk about him like he is the second coming of Tom Landry...

He is a good coach who has coached a state championship team
Dayton, I'm a Strong fan, I was there when the championship team was 3-3 and falling apart, I was there when the powers that be in Strong took everything away from him including his headset and sent him to press box so he would be in their way. Yes, he was head coach of a championship team, but he wasn't doing the coaching. Anyone that was 3-3 with Kenneth Dixon, wasn't doing something right.
I see you didn't attend the championship game. Davis was on the side lines and guess who was sending in the plays, Davis.
WOW! I bet that was a hard job...Dixon Right, Dixon left, Dixon up the middle...
Davis was on the sideline at away games, three people called plays in the championship game, Coach Langston and Dixon on offense and Coach Jackson on defense and Yes I was at the championship game and yes I'm an insider when it comes to Strong football, I'm not guessing on what took place on and off the sideline.

Ah, they say we're young and we don't know,

Of course I don't know if all that's true
'Cause you've got me, and baby I've got you.

Babe,
I've got you, babe,
I've got you, babe.

They say our love won't pay the rent,
Before it's earned, our money's always spent.

I guess that's so, we don't have a lot,
But at least I'm sure of all the things we've got.

Babe,
I've got you, babe,
I've got you, babe.

Post by: Coach Venny Slocombe on November 04, 2013, 12:41:41 pm
Let's take a look at Waldron over the course of the last two years...and see if there is any improvement...

2012 - Waldon scored 70 points for an average of 7 points per game.
          Waldron gave up 429 points for an average of 42.9 points per game.
          Waldron went 0-10.

2013 - Waldron scored 134 points thru 9 games for an average of 14.8 points per game.
          Waldron gave up 399 points for an average of 44.3 point per game.
          Waldron is 0-9 to this point with Pottsville left and that is certainly a loss.

So Waldron doubled their scoring average from 2012 to 2013 but gave up more points...very little if any improvement IMO...
Title: Re: Waldron's on road to Success
Post by: Coach Venny Slocombe on November 04, 2013, 12:50:40 pm
So...in Klatts last two years...

2011 - Waldron scored 107 points for an average of 10.7 points per game
          Waldron gave up 285 points for an average of 28.5 points per game
          Waldron went 2-8 and 1-6 in conference

2010 - Waldron scored 163 points for an average of 16.3 points per game
          Waldron gave up 323 points for an average of 32.3 points per game
          Waldron went 1-9 and 0-7 in conference

So by the numbers Klatt won 3 games in two years and 1 conference game. He scored more points and gave up alot less...

So in summary, the title of this thread ended up being false...Waldron is not on the Road to success...

Coach Klatt was a good man in a bad situation. The assistant coaches undermined him the whole time he was here and he still managed to have a somewhat competitive team. On the other hand Davis is arrogant and has had the full support from the assistants but still can't win. Things went from bad to worse.

They have.  Usually occurred when one of the Hill brothers was playing (Wade, Mike, Pat - late 80's, early 90's), or when the Kearney kid was playing (early-mid 00's maybe?  Can't remember).  They had good teams in '93 and '94 also I think.

Those records can't be right for '93 and '94.  I think they went to the playoffs in '94 when only 2 teams from conference went each year, and in '93 I think they were 3rd in conference behind Booneville and Clarksville.

You are right Chief O.   They left off the shared conference title with Booneville as well.    This was discussed last year on a Booneville thread....or the Waldron head coach thread who knows!!


Again, Idoknow.......doesn't know Jack.
DiehardFbfan I did make a mistake. Waldrons best consecutive seasons were 1985 5-4,86 6-4,87 6-4 88 7-3. 1993 5-4, 94 7-3 and their best season was in 2003 8-2 and 6-1 in the 4AAA to win their only Conference Championship. I forgot to mention in 94 they finished 3rd., behind Mena 7-0 9-1, Paris 6-1 9-1. I really know Jack, he's my Uncle!!!! Coo-Coo your the moron, you need to be concerned about Stuttgart.

The 2003 team with Kearney was a good team...finished 10-2 with losses to Pulaski Academy and yes...drum roll please...Mansfield the last game of the regular season...I can't remember who Waldron beat in the first round of the playoffs but I went and watched the PA vs. Waldron game in Waldron. Poor Waldron, all they had was Kearney and he had to play both ways that game...

Kearney was a great player.  The teams they have had over the yrs that were decent only had one great player.  After the star graduated, even if everyone else on the squad returned the following year, the team fell in the dumps.  Kearney enjoyed the friday night games because he didnt have to deal with his wife and kids. (Joking, dont take too serious if you are sensitive)

LOL +1

Also, the '93 team was snakebit.  Booneville and Clarksville were both very good that year, and Waldron was right in the mix.  They were big and physical, but they lost Pat Hill to I think a broken leg and that Laotian running back against Clarksville broke his ankle.  Had both of them not been injured, they possibly would have won the conference and made some noise in the tournament.

I also stated who knows!     What part of that is so hard for you to understand?   


It's best on here I have learned to make sure you have ALL the facts etc....or some people will jump all over it.

Previous records has absolutely nothing to do with now and what the record stands for the current Coach. IMO.

It's very sad.  I think everyone on this thread has compassion for the kids.    After all it's one of the most remembered times in a child's life....school years.   Either that can be filled with memories of winning or losing.    It can shape the outlook of what one has in the future towards perhaps allowing their children to play sports.   

I also think that when one goes to look at previous stats and can clearly see that Waldron or any school for that matter, has always at least won a few games and has been fairly competitive it raises the question what is going on currently that is preventing Waldron from winning?

Don't you think?

This Almanac was written Leland Barclay, the first book on history of high school Fb.in Ar. The book I have goes from 1960 to 2006. He has a new book that starts in 1970. I think Venny ask about this and someone game him the Webb site. The old Webb site is Barclayalmanac@hotmail, or you can check with Wadie Moore at the AAA office. I know you would enjoy this book.

I coached Kearney is baseball when he was 14 and 15. Super kid with little or no home life...and yes when he was a Senior he had a wife and kid I heard...he was actually a more talented baseball player than football player...

What is a joke is some of the parents in this town and the way they act. They think that because they played athletics once they automatically know how to coach. They think that if Waldron loses or if their son doesn't like the coach or doesn't get all state like someone else's son that they can openly criticize coaches and tell them how horrible they are. What is that teaching the kids about life? Terrible lessons that's what. Athletics is used to teach kids and y'all are teaching them lack of respect and lack of respect for authority. When they do that to their bosses they're going to get fired. Waldron's problem isn't coaching it's what these parents do to these coaches.  There is a huge gap of # of players, size of players and strength of players. That's part of how spread out the district is and the socioeconomics of Waldron. Waldron now has a name around the state of parents that are terrible to the coaches. Your comment above is just another example of that. If you're "really all about the kids" you'd think before you speak. You're doing nothing but hurting the kids, and the community.

You're obviously a coach or a coach's family member.  If you don't think that coaching is at the very least a part of the problem, then you have your head buried in the sand.  And if a coach can't take some criticism, then coaching is not the career for him...especially when the team is 0-20 for the past two seasons.  Go back and look at the 27 pages of this thread and show me one post, other than your own, of where Waldron is being accused of having "bad parents" instead of a bad program.  These "bad parents" drive to every game, pay gate admission, buy from the concession stands, donate to every fundraiser (and some even donate additionally to help purchase extras for the program, as well as sometimes purchase shoes, etc., for kids that can't afford them)...all to support the players and the program.  What specifically do the coaches do to help the program that isn't covered with a stipend?  And before you say they put in a lot of hours, remember that this was THEIR career choice. 

The incident that initiated your post was an opinion expressed by a parent privately with the coaches; however, it has been expressed loudly by many other parents in the stands.  I believe if you were to check with the AD and superintendent you would find that they have had many complaints, too.  You and others are the ones that have chosen to publicize this conversation rather than address it privately.  I guess they believe that criticizing so-called "bad parents" publicly will take the spotlight off their very public win-loss record.

No one is saying that Waldron has a hidden athlete pool, but the gene pool isn't that much different between Waldron, Mansfield, Mena, and Booneville.  Heck, half of Waldron is related to people from these towns!  Our other sports are fairly competitive...we may not be winning everything, but we are competitive.  Two of the last three years our boys have made it to state in basketball with many of the same players as football, so it's hard to say that we have no athleticism.  What are the basketball coaches getting out of the players that the football coaches are not?  Yes, I'm aware that these are two different sports, but both still require a certain amount of athletic ability. 

It isn't 100% coaching, but neither is it 100% the kids.  There are a number of issues with the program.  The biggest problem is probably the inability of either side to accept any responsibility.

I am not a coach or coach's family. The coaches have been respectable enough to keep their mouths shut and just do their job. I just thought someone should stand up for them. And I did not call anyone "bad parents." I just addressed the issue of teaching kids that it's ok to disrespect authority when they don't agree with them. A little respect could go a long way on the field. This conversation will stop here, as far as I'm concerned. Just wanted to clear those 2 misconceptions regarding my post. Thank you.

in reference to the bolded statements, you can have a solid 6-7 players on a basketball team and have a very successful season. with football, specifically in Waldron's case, 6-7 solid players just insn't enough to be successful. however, that doesn't mean 0-20 should be the case. i have to concur with AW. the issues with Waldron and the football program falls on the backs of all involved. not the players, not JUST the coaching staff, but everyone.

Your comment above is just another example of that. If you're "really all about the kids" you'd think before you speak. You're doing nothing but hurting the kids, and the community.
Well...hello coach. I was wondering when you would finally make an appearance...yeah, I agree...it's all the fault of the parents, community and players...cause we all know it isn't Whistle Britches fault. That guy is perfect...just ask Strong after he was stripped of his duties the year he won state...

I mean 0-20...no way the "COACH" had anything to do with that! ;)

...And cue the clock:

"I've got you babe..."

"What if there is no tomorrow? There wasn't one today."

"I'll give you a (Waldron Thread) prediction: It's gonna be cold, it's gonna be grey, and it's gonna last you for the rest of your life."

"I was in the Virgin Islands once. I met a girl. We ate lobster, drank pina coladas. At sunset, we made love like sea otters. That was a pretty good day. Why couldn't I get that day over and over and over?

LOL!    Is that the colt talking?     


"Is this world out of control
Say what is right what is wrong
Do I know this world at all
I think I do but then I don't
I'm confused by what I see
I try to understand
But it makes no sense at all
I'm confused by what I feel
I thought that our love
Was something that is real

Does anyone know
The truth we're looking for
Can't find it anymore
Does anyone know
How to make me feel
For something that is real

So many things that I recall
When we were young just flying high
Can we turn our fate at all
I wish we could say don't you cry
I'm confused by what I hear
Girl it seems to me
We're losing after all
I'm confused by what I feel
I thought that our love
Was something that is real

Does anyone know
The truth we're looking for
Can't find it anymore
Does anyone know
How to make me feel
For something that is real

Another day has just begun
Life goes on there's no return
How can I trust anyone
When honesty is such a dirty word

Does anyone know
The truth we're looking for
Can't find it anymore
Does anyone know
How to make me feel
For something that is real

Does anyone know
The truth we're looking for
Can't find it anymore
Does anyone know
How to make me feel
For something that is real"

I am not a coach or coach's family. The coaches have been respectable enough to keep their mouths shut and just do their job. I just thought someone should stand up for them. And I did not call anyone "bad parents." I just addressed the issue of teaching kids that it's ok to disrespect authority when they don't agree with them. A little respect could go a long way on the field. This conversation will stop here, as far as I'm concerned. Just wanted to clear those 2 misconceptions regarding my post. Thank you.

If you are not a coach, then the coaches have not kept their mouths shut.  The private meeting included the AD, 5 coaches, and 1 parent.  If you are not a coach, then how do you know anything about it?  At least the parent met with the coaches in private instead of airing their grievances on Facebook as some coaches and their families have done.

As for "disrespecting authority," there is a difference in disrespect and disagreement.  Some parents teach their kids to think for themselves and not follow blindly.  A player on the field sees things that a coach sometimes does not see, just as a parent in the stands doesn't always see what the coach sees on the sideline.  A coach should have enough respect for his players to at least listen when a player says "this is what is happening on the field."  Players sometimes see that a play will not work and should not be ridiculed by a coach for speaking up...especially when, as is the case with Waldron, what the coach is doing is so obviously not working.  How is a player speaking up and questioning being more disrespectful than players shoving coaches and throwing their helmets?

You are correct in saying that this conversation should stop here; however, since you seem to know me I'd be more than happy to buy your lunch and discuss this further if you're willing to quit hiding behind your "anonymous" id.  PM me for a time and place; I have nothing to hide.

The kids at Waldron and everyone involved with that team including the parents I would suspect have had their fair share of feeling discouraged at their situation.   We all know that has to be hard.  And I'm sure All of them are more and heck I'd say past ready for a win.   I can't help but feel compassion for those kids.

At EVERY level of football, a coordinator has less control over his part of the team than the head coach.

I remember my FIRST Sr. High game.   We had the ball on OUR OWN  16 yard line and it was 4th &  4.   The head coach decided to go for it because he "thought he saw something".    Needless to say we got stuffed.   At which point the head coach turned to me and said "Sorry to put you in a tough spot like that".

I thought I would jump on this before Venny did. The head coach should always have complete control of his Fb. team, but I don't know what kind of coach would go for it on 4th. down on his own 16, unless it was at the end of the game. Those are the coaches that usually end up getting "Fired"!

A veteran head coach with more than 20 years experience once told me to say you would win half your games.   Any more seems unrealistic and arrogant.   Any less and administration wonders why they should even bother.

Nope Sugar, that wasn't my biggest issue. My issue was the FACT that he found that he needed to make fun of other schools (Publicly) and down their coaching staffs and teams while saying that those said schools would be "easy" wins. I guess he found out different didn't he...and he did it at a coaching clinic it front of some of the coaches he would be coaching against...and he got his butt handed to him and when things didn't pan out he blamed the kids, the community and anyone else that would listen...

Bottom line, he was ran out of Strong, he was about to get ran out of Waldron...

I really hope for the sake of the kids at Waldron that they hire a good coach...and AW, there are athletes in Waldron...a good coach can win there...

Jr. High success is not necessarily transferrable to Sr. High.   Nor is Jr. High failure.    Games are 50% longer.    Games are much more closely officiated.    And other tangibles and intangibles.

Don't recall off hand.  A college I thought.   IIRC,  they were willing to meet Perry's compensation requirements but not some of the other conditions he set which (again I could be wrong) involved his assistant coaches.    I think Perry insisted he get to bring in at least one of his own guys.

I understand the coaches position but then again the school has valid points as well.   Even a 4A school generally can't afford to hire entire coaching staffs en masse unless they fit the teaching requirements.    I don't know many Arkansas schools that could do that.

To be fair,  I've only worked at AA schools.   At two of them, the Defensive Coordinator had a great deal of autonomy is how to coach the defense.   In the other two,  a person might be called a Defensive Coordinator,  but he did not even substitute players without the approval of the head coach. 

That depends on the head coach and how he delegates coaching authority I suppose and there are a hundred possible reasons it might be different.

For example when Dennis Steele was head coach at Norphlet,  he had three assistant coaches.   Steele had more than TWICE as much coaching experience as his three assistants COMBINED including two decades as the Defensive Coordinator of a major football power in Illinois.    So it seemed perfectly reasonable for him to call all the offensive plays, all the defensive formations, and make all the special teams decisions.

Dennis Steele retired from Morris High School in Illinois.   His best friend (and a great guy,  I've met him too) was head coach and retired at the same time. 

Steele and his wife moved to Norphlet in 2005 because his wife had family there and her father still lived nearby.    Steele volunteered to help out with the baseball team there (as he had also been head baseball coach at Morris) but was asked to become the regular football coach after the head coach who was there left abruptly.    I worked for Steele for three years before two of the coaches myself included were Reduction In Force (RIF).

Reduction in Force is driven by core needs and tenure, not performance (FIFO).  And Coach Carpenter was RIFed at one time.  Assuming Norphlet uses the Arkansas model policy, it would read like this:

"If a reduction in force becomes necessary in a licensure area and/or specific grade level(s), the teacher's length of service in the district shall be the initial determining factor. The teacher with the most years of employment as a licensed teacher in the district as compared to other teachers in the same licensure area and/or specific grade level(s) shall prevail. Length of service in a classified position shall not count for the purpose of length of service for a licensed position. Total years of service to the district shall include non-continuous years of service. Being employed fewer than 160 days in a school year shall not constitute a year.

In the event that two employees subject to a RIF have the same length of service, the employee with the higher number of points as determined by the schedule contained in this policy shall be retained. The teacher with the fewer points will be non-renewed or terminated first. In the event two or more employees have the same number of points, the teacher(s) shall be retained whose name(s) appear first in the board's minutes of the date of hire."


But again, some on FF find what they look for even if it isn't there.

When you are dismissed due to a Reduction In Force,  you have the right to return to your old job (no interview or application required) if the school expands their number of instructors again.   For example, if they added more members of the coaching staff with your teaching assignment,  you can request your old job back and get it pretty much with no questions asked.

I watched it here at Mansfield and it is not an easy thing to go through. We watched some good people be let go.

As for Waldron, it can only get better. It can't get any worse. I truly hope that Waldron gets a great coach and starts competing again. Time to start over and this time I hope they find the right candidate. The problem is gone...things can only get better...

Well,  technically it could get worse.   You could reach the point where not enough kids were willing to play football that you didn't have a football team.   While normally only a problem in AA and (rarely) AAA schools,  I do remember in the late 1980s IIRC a big school equivalent to 5A or 6A today in Little Rock that had to discontinue football for a season or two due to lack of numbers.

The state of Arkansas does not set the RIF policy for each district.  They develop their own guidelines as to how to proceed with a RIF.  To be sure, many are very similar, but the point is, each district decides, on their own, how to conduct a RIF.  The guiding factor is "fairness".  That is why, good teachers, or coaches, with a short tenure, may be RIF'd.  How would you like to have been teaching for 10 years and you were RIF'd and a 2 year teacher kept?  On the other hand, if you are a math teacher, with 2 years tenure,and the school could not proceed with their mission to educate if you were "RIF'd", then you may be retained while a P.E. teacher with 10 years experience, may be "RIF'd".  I intentionally made a verb out of the acronym to help further understanding.

That's right.  It is a model for all districts to use to adapt to their own use.  I have been out of teaching awhile and didn't know this existed.  It helps with more standardization of district policies.  Thanks for showing me that.

You know something I just noticed about that...lol...there is no stipend listed for Dayton...lol...yes they list him as a coach and a teacher but no coaching stipend...Volunteer Assistant...so it hasn't changed...
Venny, they didn't have stipend's listed for any of the coaches according to salary index. See Coach Everett and Coach House!

I don't think so, I really can't see coaches working for nothing. Is this not one of the problems Coach Gill had at Mansfield with the 7th. Grade. They didn't want to pay and wanted one of his coaches to help for no pay! I think it might have been the Baseball Coach to help in Fb. with no stipend.

Yes, it was part of the RIF package. They were not gonna allow any 7th grade coached to be paid. The board actually was gonna dissolve 7th grade sports altogether and the coaches said they would coach the teams for a couple of years until the fiscal distress got worked out. Bottom line IDoKnow, Dayton is a career volunteer assistant...lol...that's my story and I'm stickin to it...and no stipend helps proves my point...lol...

Well again you prove your sheer ignorance...lol

1. Nobody that wants to win and have a quality coach will hire you...just check your track record...it isn't exactly a stellar resume...

2. I quit supporting Mansfield for a good reason. You wouldn't understand it but it has been explained on here several times.

3. I guess your not ever gonna answer my question about how much latitude you were given as the DC... I am gonna assume that if you were given any at all after this past season that will be taken away...lol...

I called the defensive formation changes and largely handled the line and linebackers.    I have always preferred to have someone with more of a background in the secondary handle coverage decisions.   

And sorry,  I had forgotten the little "hissy fit" you threw after the Mansfield coach left a couple of years ago.

My apologies.   

Though I am curious as to which high school football programs you support or follow now.

I was told by a fellow teacher from the area who knows that coach and his family that the "professional poker" reason is kind of simplistic.    The coach in question and his family suffered some massive family tragedies just a few years ago and some related major life changes recently and that was said to have changed his willingness to spend the amount of time needed to devote to a high school program.   More than reasonable the way she explained it to me

Just wondering about the future for Waldron. What was the junior high's record? I know they had a bunch of players and some big kids, with a couple of good skill position players.

Jr. High success is not necessarily transferrable to Sr. High.   Nor is Jr. High failure.    Games are 50% longer.    Games are much more closely officiated.    And other tangibles and intangibles.
Any coach who applies at Waldron (or any school as far as this goes) that has had success in the past will be intelligent enough to inquire into the performance of the junior high as this will have an impact upon the future of the senior high team. He will want to know what caliber of skill position players and linemen he will inherit, and the potential for their development into a successful program. Now granted, some coaches don't emphasize winning as much at that lower level as they want to concentrate on the fundamentals and proper execution of their offensive and defensive schemes. But I'm pretty sure that if a team has had success at the junior high level the chances are better that they will at the senior high level as well.

Anyway, lol, how did the junior high do at Waldron this year?

Yep, I was agreeing with you.  I threw those two names out as hyperbole.  With the current culture, it would take a lot to lure in a big-name coach, and I don't know if the town is willing to do that.

Haven't almost all of Waldron's recent head coaches been "veteran, proven head football coaches"?

Klatt was but Davis wasn't...and before you go there I know for a fact he was moved to the pressbox and taken out of the role of Head Coach but still held the title of head coach during the Championship run...
I really think if Klatt had been given another year he would have had them competing. They played much harder under Klatt than they did Rhettman or Davis...

...

That is not true.  Davis was on the sideline of all the games in Strong's championship run and was actively coaching the team.   I was personally at three of the games myself.    Plus I was told directly what the situation was by Jerry Langston the former head coach of Strong (now principal) who was urged by people to "takeover" from Davis after their loss to  Parkers Chapel (their last loss of that season).

Langston himself told me directly that he was just "providing cover" for Davis and that Shane Davis was still the one coaching Strong.   

By the way,  I have the highest regard for Jerry Langston for many reasons.

I know venny.  Why leave anywhere for waldron.  Just really meaning he may have a recipe.  Going to have to find an old coach who just wants he challenge of turning around a program or a young coach full of fire who is willing to take a chance. But its hard to know how good a young coach is.
Yep, if it were me I would try and find a proven coach that is near the end of his career that maybe has some sort of ties to this area and then hire some good young coaches under him that can learn his system and when he retires make one of them the head coach and keep on truckin...Speaking of old proven head coaches...I hear Dayton is available...

I've never been the head football coach for a Senior High Team.

But you bring up an interesting point Venny.

Haven't almost all of Waldron's recent head coaches been "veteran, proven head football coaches"?   

Success is not transferrable.
Klatt was but Davis wasn't...and before you go there I know for a fact he was moved to the pressbox and taken out of the role of Head Coach but still held the title of head coach during the Championship run...
...

That is not true.  Davis was on the sideline of all the games in Strong's championship run and was actively coaching the team.   I was personally at three of the games myself.    Plus I was told directly what the situation was by Jerry Langston the former head coach of Strong (now principal) who was urged by people to "takeover" from Davis after their loss to  Parkers Chapel (their last loss of that season).

Langston himself told me directly that he was just "providing cover" for Davis and that Shane Davis was still the one coaching Strong.   

By the way,  I have the highest regard for Jerry Langston for many reasons.
It is true...you have no clue. Had Davis wanted to stay at Strong even after the championship he would not have been welcomed back. He was removed after the 3rd loss (PC) and an assistant took over. Not gonna argue with you about it because you are so far up his butt if he stops too fast you will lose your nose. Bottom line Davis failed miserably at Waldron and if he is soooo popular at Strong let's see if he ever get's hired back there...Davis' reputation is so bad now he will have a hard time getting a head coaching job in Arkansas...

The only person you have claiming that is the grandfather of Strong's center.

A nice guy. 

I've heard his view from the bleachers is excellent.

And just because a coach is not welcomed back after winning a state title doesn't necessarily have to anything to do with his ability.    Look at what happened to Van Paschal at Monticello a few years ago.     He wins state and they promptly cut his salary by more than 20,000 dollars to force him out.

The coach I played for didn't work on Sundays.   Langston at Strong who brought Strong back from being an 0-10 team to averaging 8 wins a season his last three years didn't work on the weekends at all (aside from going to trade game film).

I've think a vigorous off season weight lifting/conditioning program is great and in fact vital.

I have not changed my opinion about 7 on 7 and far better coaches than I have expressed the same belief.

As for the rest of the "weekend stuff".    I do not see why it makes any difference if you choose to wash uniforms on Fridays nights after the games instead of Saturdays or breakdown film Monday after practice instead of Sunday.

And I think even Coach Davis will admit he failed at Waldron.    Whether he is the main cause of that though is very much debatable.   

It isn't like Davis went to Waldron and inherited a program on the rise.    People marvel at Dawson winning three state titles his first 3 years at Nashville, yet ignore the fact that Dawson inherited a program that was 13-1 the previous season and lost only to the eventual state title winner in the semifinals.

It's difficult to just cut a salary according to Arkansas School Law.  They may have removed some of the extra jobs they were paying him for to keep him, but salaries cannot be arbitrarily cut.  Teachers (coaches are considered teachers first) cannot be paid less than the previous years salary.  (somebody correct me if I'm wrong).

It is extremely easy to cut a coaches salary.   Just reduce his contract from say 240 days to 210, 200, or 190 days.   All perfectly legal.    And/or take away a title like Athletic Director along with the stipend for it.

It doesn't matter who's version you believe, Coach Davis' coaching ability speaks for itself.
Strong was 3-3 when he was relieved  of his head coaching position, Strong didn't lose another game, that year! Going 0-fer at Waldron doesn't add anything to his resume.
Until Shane Davis matures, he will be his worst enemy.
Yes Dayton, he was on the sideline during the championship run, we played all our games on the road and didn't have a corner to tuck him away in. Davis didn't have the option of staying at Strong.
Dayton, I'm not a nice guy...

Sounds to me like we have a has been and a wanna be head coach facing off! Who's to say that if Dayton becomes a head coach, he want be as successful as the has been coach (other than an old has been, that, it seems, still wants to rule the nest.
Coach Venny, you seem to have a high opinion of yourself, why not prove to the rest of us how good you were, by taking the Waldron job to see if you can take them on the road to success, but what you really need to do is, get over yourself.

Probably right.   But I just do not have it in me to allow lies about me to go unchallenged.    I may not "win" against some "fan" with massive amounts of free time but I will not allow lies about me to be said without at least making an effort at responding.

9 years.   

And why is that so difficult to understand?    Unless you're one of those that thinks touch football (7 on 7) leads inevitably to success.
So I guess that you, Dayton "Volunteer DC" Kitchens knows more about football than Rick Jones, Barry Lunney and the list goes on forever...you know more than these guys? And what qualifications exactly do you have? Let's here them big boy...
Dayton you gonna respond to this? You don't ever want to respond when you know you are wrong...typical...

It doesn't matter what the "good" people of Waldron want.  All things being equal (Waldron, Mena, Booneville, Dardanelle, etc.), the best teams are the ones that worked the hardest in the weight room for the last six years.  All the peewee teams are competitive but the weight room is what changes 115 lb 6th grade back-ups into 175 lb seniors that run a 4.6 forty.  6th grade is too early to tell who the players will be.  Every player has to lift weights every week, every year.  Then, in five years or so, you can be competitive.  Probably on your third coach by then, but competitive.

Sugar, it will take a little more than  a few 175lb seniors to be competitive.

You can have a general idea of talent in the sixth grade.  Doesn't mean it's certain and there will always be a few that come on late.  But I agree the off season weight room is critical.

So Waldron talent is "175 LB athletes". Now I know the real problem.

Not critical.   It's everything.    Beyond the obvious building of muscle mass and bone density and getting stronger and faster.   It is also radically reducing your chance of injury

But beyond that,  the weight room represents something intangible.    Most weight room work is repetitive, tedious, boring  and it is something that requires great self discipline and sacrifice.   It has been estimated that "laying off" from the weight room for as little as two weeks can ruin virtually all the gains a players has made up to that point so it has got to be something so continuous that it is effectively a way of life while you play football (or other sports).

So to be committed to rigorous weight room workouts months or even years before you get to the real football games (Sr. High) means you have to have a level of commitment that too many young people simply don't have.

I can't tell you how many players I've heard say "Christmas vacation (or summer vacation) is supposed to be a VACATION.   Where I don't have to do anything".

First off I am a huge supporter of a solid weight program.  I continue a rigorous one my self.  Secondly,  we have had one in place for many years.  With that being said.  I am not going to argue with you for days Dayton but you don't know much about weightlifting.  Two weeks will not ruin anything.  The whole summer off will.  Sometimes you can take off 2 weeks and come back and your lifts will increase.  The down time will replenish the depleted glycogen in the muscles and allow them to heal completely before going back and tearing them again.  This is the same in almost all things athletic.   That's why there are seasons.   Does a pitcher get stronger the more balls he throws?  Can a basketball player jump higher the more qtrs he plays?  Why is football season have a long off season?  Rest.  The continuity of workouts are critical for discipline but proper rest is also crucial.  Let me reiterate a point,  weights are key for any thing athletic.   You may not want to be the strength coach anywhere until you learn how to properly cycle weights for peak physical performance.  Also, for venny,  look into that new idea of 7 on 7!!

Wow, haven't read this thread in four or five days and must admit getting caught up was very entertaining. Anyway several pages ago I asked how the junior high did this year. I know they thumped Mansfield with a roster loaded with size, some speed, some athletic ability, but good numbers. If I remember correctly around 45-50 kids took the field. So, LOL, anybody know their record and scores?

First off I am a huge supporter of a solid weight program.  I continue a rigorous one my self.  Secondly,  we have had one in place for many years.  With that being said.  I am not going to argue with you for days Dayton but you don't know much about weightlifting.  Two weeks will not ruin anything.  The whole summer off will.  Sometimes you can take off 2 weeks and come back and your lifts will increase.  The down time will replenish the depleted glycogen in the muscles and allow them to heal completely before going back and tearing them again.  This is the same in almost all things athletic.   That's why there are seasons.   Does a pitcher get stronger the more balls he throws?  Can a basketball player jump higher the more qtrs he plays?  Why is football season have a long off season?  Rest.  The continuity of workouts are critical for discipline but proper rest is also crucial.  Let me reiterate a point,  weights are key for any thing athletic.   You may not want to be the strength coach anywhere until you learn how to properly cycle weights for peak physical performance.  Also, for venny,  look into that new idea of 7 on 7!!
Old School, it is funny Dayton talking about dedication...lol...he won't even work weekends but hey...lol...Dayton is a poor excuse for a coach even for a volunteer...
It's obvious you're stalking Dayton, why? If you need friends you have to be friendly, seems to me, you're starving for attention, and that's sad  :'(





dude...really...Dayton brings this all on himself...
No he doesn't. He is a coach and you should be ashamed of yourself, little man

We all know by now about the 7 on 7 and the working on Wk. Ends. You have your opinions and Dayton has his and nothing is going to change. I have quoted you as saying if you don't like it don't read it, but I do think this thing with Dayton is getting old, don't you! I know I'm fairly new to FF but I've. been keeping up with a lot posters through the Yrs. and have enjoyed a lot of your post along with others who have been posting along time. I've told Dayton a couple of times he's not going to win this argument and I do agree with one poster, I don't think a coach should be on FF and set himself up for criticism. Have a nice day!

Yep and since I made that post I haven't said anything about Dayton...until they brought it up...but I will no longer be responding to Dayton's wife...but Dayton on the other hand...lol...

I've debated back and forth sending my application in.  In some ways I don't think it is reasonable to expect a 4A school to hire someone who has never been a head football coach, but then again IIRC some Little Rock school this year did just that and they were at least as large.

And they didn't bother interviewing me last time so I was pretty annoyed at that.

At any rate,  people cling to the illusion that there are experienced, veteran coaches roaming the Arkansas countryside who go from town to town,  turning around losing programs and then moving on.

Let me ask you Dayton...let's say you are a Superintendent at a 4A school. The football program has struggled like Waldron for years now. The other sports do fine, just football is having problems.
Do you as the Super, hire a guy who has never been a head football coach or hire the guy who has turned programs around in the past?
Now just to clarify, it can be done by a guy who has never been a head football coach. But in that position what do you do? The community is screaming, parents are mad, kids don't even want to participate. The Super is in a pretty bad predicament to say the least. What would you do Dayton?

Dayton in order to get an interview at any school you're going to need a good solid resume from schools that have proven and strong Fb. Programs. As bad as this sounds It's a fact! Schools get's lots of resumes each yr. and the AD. or Pricipal go through these and pick 5 or 10 to even consider. The best way for you to be in the running is try your best to help turn Augusta into a winning program. A lot of times an Assistant can help, by getting more kids in the program than the Head Coach. This is where you need to prove yourself and when this happens and things change for the good, then you may be ready to apply for HC. Positions. This is not going to be an easy task with the Conference, Augusta is playing in. Good Luck and never give up "Hope"!

Actually Venny,  I've said about the same thing before.    Hiring a highly experienced head coach is great cover for a superintendent.   If the highly experienced coach fails to turn a program around the superintendent can shrug his shoulders and say "Well,  I hired the most experienced coach who applied"?

But what does he say if an inexperienced head coach fails?

Of course inexperienced head coaches don't always fail do they?

You can also actually have situations where a program under achieves with a highly experienced head coach and the community will openly blame the players.

I remember just a few years ago Woodlawn was widely predicted to make the playoffs yet they blew a huge lead in a conference game and were unexpectedly beaten.

There were parents posting on the AA board blaming their sons!    I remember one guy from Woodlawn came on and said his son was a loser that let the coach down.

Dear vennie,
For the last few days, I've been giving you a hard time. It didn't take you long to tuck tail and run. You wasn't interested in being treated like you were treating Dayton, he asked you several times, over the entire thread (at least the parts I've read) why you were attacking him and making up lies about him, you never gave him an answer. I think you found someone you thought you could bully and I think by marginalizing him, somehow in your mind, it made you feel good.

Nope...he is pretty happy at Greenwood right now...

I've debated back and forth sending my application in.  In some ways I don't think it is reasonable to expect a 4A school to hire someone who has never been a head football coach, but then again IIRC some Little Rock school this year did just that and they were at least as large.

And they didn't bother interviewing me last time so I was pretty annoyed at that.

At any rate,  people cling to the illusion that there are experienced, veteran coaches roaming the Arkansas countryside who go from town to town,  turning around losing programs and then moving on.
Let me ask you Dayton...let's say you are a Superintendent at a 4A school. The football program has struggled like Waldron for years now. The other sports do fine, just football is having problems.
Do you as the Super, hire a guy who has never been a head football coach or hire the guy who has turned programs around in the past?
Now just to clarify, it can be done by a guy who has never been a head football coach. But in that position what do you do? The community is screaming, parents are mad, kids don't even want to participate. The Super is in a pretty bad predicament to say the least. What would you do Dayton?

Actually Venny,  I've said about the same thing before.    Hiring a highly experienced head coach is great cover for a superintendent.   If the highly experienced coach fails to turn a program around the superintendent can shrug his shoulders and say "Well,  I hired the most experienced coach who applied"?

But what does he say if an inexperienced head coach fails?

Of course inexperienced head coaches don't always fail do they?

You can also actually have situations where a program under achieves with a highly experienced head coach and the community will openly blame the players.

I remember just a few years ago Woodlawn was widely predicted to make the playoffs yet they blew a huge lead in a conference game and were unexpectedly beaten.

There were parents posting on the AA board blaming their sons!    I remember one guy from Woodlawn came on and said his son was a loser that let the coach down.
Nope, experience doesn't always matter in turning a program around, but the odds are certainly better. Do you think you could turn Waldron around? If so I'll put a word in for you...seriously...

Dear vennie,
For the last few days, I've been giving you a hard time. It didn't take you long to tuck tail and run. You wasn't interested in being treated like you were treating Dayton, he asked you several times, over the entire thread (at least the parts I've read) why you were attacking him and making up lies about him, you never gave him an answer. I think you found someone you thought you could bully and I think by marginalizing him, somehow in your mind, it made you feel good.

I'm done with you now, I've had my "fun" but I challenge you to take other peoples feelings into consideration before you post. Everyone is effected by what and how we say things.  :-*
lololol...dude, I have been on here and argued with alot better than you...hahaha, if you think you bother me...think again...just don't like arguing with coaches wives...they tend to get emotional...

I could get a core group ((15-18 kids) in the weight room from March-Augusta and put out a noticeably physically stronger and better conditioned football team than they have fielded the last few years,  simplify both the offense and defense, eliminate mistakes and I believe that I could pull off 3-5 wins the first season.

Dayton are you talking about Augusta or Waldron? If you're talking about Waldron you're going to need more than 18 kids to make a difference in that conference.

He's got Subi and Dover to beat for 2 of those wins...surely 18 kids showing a good improvement could beat those 2 most years....They played Cedarville close this year as they were...So there are 3 wins right there just off this past seasons schedule.

Pick up somebody like a Danville(2-8 this year), or drop shamelessly down to 2A to pick up a Hartford or a Western Yell County...And there's 3 wins right there...

I'm not talking about becoming a conference competitor the first season.    I'm talking about getting some "W's" in the column and stimulating interest from players, potential players,  parents,  fans, and the community.   

Take 18 disciplined, motivated, conditioned, strengthened well coached (but not over coached) players, 9 on offense, 9 on defense (ideally) and you have enough to make a real difference (just 2 warm bodies on offense & defense).

Sure depth is nonexistent and special teams play is probably subpar but you have to start somewhere

Probably so...But I still think if you could get 18 guys committed to the program like Dayton Suggests, then they could beat Subi and Dover....

Just want to say I've never watched Waldron play any sport....just seeing how bad Dover has been over the years...outside of the once in a 7-10 year class that wins a playoff game there....

Bottom line,  he lost to a team that everybody in the community hates with a burning passion (Parker's Chapel).

I was down at the school the Monday after that game and it went like this:

1) He was overusing Kenneth Dixon.
2) He was underusing Kenneth Dixon.
3) He was misusing Kenneth Dixon.
4) He chewed out the team after the game.
5) Many fans had wanted Johnny Jackson (current head coach, DC at that time) to be head coach instead of Davis.

For what its worth, in the Parkers Chapel game,   Kenneth Dixon had a 99 yard run for a touchdown early in the came but IIRC was held to only 67 yards rest of the way.   From what I gathered PC gambled and used a passive defense to stop Dixon the rest of the way.

What do you not believe? The part about I told them to look for your app or that the 7 on 7 and not working weekends will hurt your chances?

Because you can choose to not believe that I told them to look for your app and that is fine Dayton...I promise you they are looking...well at least two of them are...but...
if you think that for one minute that a school board, and especially a school board that is trying to find a coach that can turn a program around that has went 0-20 the last two seasons isn't looking at what a coach plans to do to turn that program around then you are dumber than I first expected. Trust me, schools find people to be on a hiring committee and the board looks to those people for support and they want a coach that is open minded to different things to make their program successful. Also, and believe this if you want, being on FF hurts you Dayton. More board members, coaches, players and Admin. read this than you would believe...and some of the stuff about 7 on 7, working weekends, lifting weights that you have posted speaks volumes...

But anyway, turn in the app...I bet you get interviewed...

Dayton, I told them to be looking for your app...but I have to be honest man. I had to tell them that your not in for any 7 on 7 and that you don't believe in working weekends...not gonna lie to my good buddy in Waldron. Just so you know, those two things along with no head coaching experience is gonna hurt your chances...

Good luck!
It old vennie, let it go, surely even you can't think your lying is fun any longer.
Dayton, you have to tell your wife to quit posting on here...making you look bad son...

He was not a certified coach is what he meant, but he was an extremely successful "volunteer" coach...........I also know he has many connections in Waldron. I don't know who is on the school board these days so I don't know if CVS has buddies on it, but he always seems to find out things that happen down there before they actually happen.

Thanks Venny but I don't believe all of that.
What do you not believe? The part about I told them to look for your app or that the 7 on 7 and not working weekends will hurt your chances?


No, I believe you told someone that.

The part about you having a "buddy" is what I find rather unlikely.

If Waldron wants to waste their money on yet another mythical "savior coach" that will "build a program" (translation:  not going to win many games in the foreseeable future) then they can fly right at it.

If they wish to find someone who can slam a group together and go out and win games in 2014 then they should give my application or someone similar a call.

But tell me this:

Experienced, veteran, successful coaches have been hired at Waldron and not been able to turn things around.

Why do they think doing the same thing will have different results?

Say it ain't so vennie, please say it ain't so. That's just to funny. "volunteer coach"  :-* It's nothing special to know what's going on 15 miles down the road, problem with vennie is, he lies a lot.

I'll bullet it.

1) We have not been in school since last Thursday due to icy roads.   Don't blame me.  Not my call.
2) I have a prep period third period every day and a lunch period where I eat in my classroom.   Unless I'm working on lesson plans (which I prefer to do at home where I won't be interrupted) I'm pretty much free those periods and eating takes only a few minutes.
3) The school does not restrict teachers from using their class computers for personal use as long as it isn't excessive.
4) We're now in the off season.   We only stay after school on Mon. Tues. & Thurs. for extra workouts and sometimes not then if there is a basketball game where the entire coaching staff has to work.   So Wed., Fri. Sat. & Sunday I'm either off at 3:05 or home entirely.

5) Posting on an online bulletin board takes little time at all.

On this thread you can "take a time out" but after a rest, thread continues, "take a knee"until injured thread is able to continue, "game over"until posters start complaining about being cheated! This thread goes for another 35 pages, "Overtime"!

Did the Waldron 8th grade have a separate schedule last season? Like playing before the junior high or something? Wonder how they did if they had that..

I heard that the junior high had a great season. Little league struggled a bit in 5th/6th grade but the 3rd and 4th grade went unbeaten. If Waldron can get the right coach in there they could win state in 6 or 7 years...

So are you admitting that the problem at Waldron is the talent level and not the coaching?

I would not tend to agree at any rate.    Elementary kids talent might or might not translate into higher level success.   I'm always skeptical.   

Any coach that looks at a PeeWee program and actually says (and means) "With what we have here we could win state in 6 or 7 years" needs to be kept as far away from a football team as possible.

At best he is trying to preserve his job by holding out hope among parents and fans for distant future success.

At worst he is delusional.

1.  So Vinnie, now that you found out who I am. Should I take that as a threat?

2.  Your "BUDDIES", In order to make yourself look big, I guess in your eyes, you attempt to lead us to believe that you are getting inside information from the "board". The Waldron school board, after being elected, had to go through an orientation by the State Board of Education and swear in their oath of office that they wouldn't do what you are suggesting your "BUDDIES" have done. The State Board of Education is very strict on this. In 2012 the Waldron School board had 5 members, 2 women, who surely didn't play or coach   against (you want their names). So that leaves three men(I can give those names as well), it wouldn't be hard for the Board of Education to find out who your "BUDDIES" are!

3. Prove you are a liar, I don't have to, you have done that many times over, but if you insist, my son never played high school football.

4. you're still ignorant (uninformed/stupid) the choice is yours, I know what I think  :-*

Post by: Coach Venny Slocombe on December 13, 2013, 02:58:21 pm
Okay, after much thought I am beginning to think this is the real deal...this could be the next "Remember the Titans"..."Friday Night Lights"...I'm telling you guys...here is the story line...

Waldron, a struggling football program in a little western Arkansas town badly in need of a football coach. The town has been down and out since 2003 when the school graduated a star RB and has not saw any success since.
Battling all odds School Superintendent (played by Cuckoo) decides to go out on a limb and hire an unproven Volunteer Coach (Dayton Kitchens played by Fatfullback) and his wife (CMHawgtracks played by DiehardFBfan).
Then from there they embark on the journey of turning around the downtrodden program. At first the town turns on Dayton and his odd ways of coaching football. No 7 on 7, no working Saturdays as Dayton takes the football team to the local bookstore on Saturday mornings to pick out a good book and then they all curl up around the fire and read till Monday morning. After season #1 the town still hasn't won a game and the town is getting restless, but Dayton assures them that good times are ahead...a state championship is in their future. So the town gives Dayton a reprieve for another season. The junior high has been good and the little league is unstoppable so Dayton has much to look forward to. The junior high has 4 athletes that are benching 275lbs and 5 athletes that run under 4.6 in the forty. After a hard summer of doing nothing and not working out Dayton gets them during two-a-days and tries to get them into winning ways. By the start of the season the 4 athletes that were benching 275lbs each now only bench 175lbs after Daytons grueling two-a-days and his speedsters are now running 4.9 forties. Daytons plan is simple. "What we don't have in size, we will make up for by not being strong and what we lack in speed, we will lull them to sleep by being slow." He says, "we may not be big, but we're slow." Season two and again no victories, but Dayton says again that the team has made progress. We have read 20 books over the last year and our test scores in reading are through the roof. Dayton is the toast of the coaching community where every coach in conference has given him a thumbs up and are begging the Waldron school board to let him stay a few more years.
The Superintendent (Cuckoo) has a hard decision, either fire the coach and the test scores go down keep the coach and have a program that is not progressing! What a decision left for Cuckoo...after much thought the Super decides to give Dayton one more season but with a condition...he has to double the victories this season. Dayton really digs in. It is season #3...the kids are not stronger, they are not faster but Dayton really believes the trips to the bookstore are really paying off! Season #3 comes and goes and after all is said and done Waldron goes 0-10 once again. So Cuckoo calls Dayton into his office and says, Dayton, like I said you needed to double up your victories this year. What do you have to say for yourself? Dayton looks Cuckoo right in the eyes and says, well, we read 20 books last year per kid and this year we read 40...so...can I get a raise?
And is the story that is Waldron football... ;D

Okay, after much thought I am beginning to think this is the real deal...this could be the next "Remember the Titans"..."Friday Night Lights"...I'm telling you guys...here is the story line...

Waldron, a struggling football program in a little western Arkansas town badly in need of a football coach. The town has been down and out since 2003 when the school graduated a star RB and has not saw any success since.
Battling all odds School Superintendent (played by Cuckoo) decides to go out on a limb and hire an unproven Volunteer Coach (Dayton Kitchens played by Fatfullback) and his wife (CMHawgtracks played by DiehardFBfan). See Vinnie you just lied again, not 4 hrs ago you said you were done with me, and here you go again.
Then from there they embark on the journey of turning around the downtrodden program. At first the town turns on Dayton and his odd ways of coaching football. No 7 on 7, no working Saturdays as Dayton takes the football team to the local bookstore on Saturday mornings to pick out a good book and then they all curl up around the fire and read till Monday morning. After season #1 the town still hasn't won a game and the town is getting restless, but Dayton assures them that good times are ahead...a state championship is in their future. So the town gives Dayton a reprieve for another season. The junior high has been good and the little league is unstoppable so Dayton has much to look forward to. The junior high has 4 athletes that are benching 275lbs and 5 athletes that run under 4.6 in the forty. After a hard summer of doing nothing and not working out Dayton gets them during two-a-days and tries to get them into winning ways. By the start of the season the 4 athletes that were benching 275lbs each now only bench 175lbs after Daytons grueling two-a-days and his speedsters are now running 4.9 forties. Daytons plan is simple. "What we don't have in size, we will make up for by not being strong and what we lack in speed, we will lull them to sleep by being slow." He says, "we may not be big, but we're slow." Season two and again no victories, but Dayton says again that the team has made progress. We have read 20 books over the last year and our test scores in reading are through the roof. Dayton is the toast of the coaching community where every coach in conference has given him a thumbs up and are begging the Waldron school board to let him stay a few more years.
The Superintendent (Cuckoo) has a hard decision, either fire the coach and the test scores go down keep the coach and have a program that is not progressing! What a decision left for Cuckoo...after much thought the Super decides to give Dayton one more season but with a condition...he has to double the victories this season. Dayton really digs in. It is season #3...the kids are not stronger, they are not faster but Dayton really believes the trips to the bookstore are really paying off! Season #3 comes and goes and after all is said and done Waldron goes 0-10 once again. So Cuckoo calls Dayton into his office and says, Dayton, like I said you needed to double up your victories this year. What do you have to say for yourself? Dayton looks Cuckoo right in the eyes and says, well, we read 20 books last year per kid and this year we read 40...so...can I get a raise?
And is the story that is Waldron football... ;D
How do he do it? making up stories just comes natural to him.  BTW wanna be volunteer coach Vinnie Slocolmbe, you take much pleasure in throwing out lines and fish taking the bait. twice now, you have cut my line and slithered away like a snake in the grass, only to continue your fun at the expense of others. Little people tend to do that, keeping it up just shows how little of a man you are.
vennie, you could be a respected poster if it wasn't for "all the fun you're having"

I'm going to assume they mean the jump in classification from 2A to 4A but that argument still doesn't hold because Coach Loughridge went from Charleston to Alma and many Coaches do well in whatever classification they move too.  IMO

My point was that Waldron has 3 times as many students as Strong...and they are some winners in that school but Davis couldn't even win one game in 2 years!! Waldron is not a "big time" program..just a larger classification.

Wow, just caught up with all of this mess.... Someone please give Fatfullback the dang records of all levels of Waldron football! As for the book I think you need a little more drama in it. Maybe throw in that Dayton's wife was considering an affair with Cuckoo... Now that is some good television!
Venny, the Head FB. Coach, Dayton and Fatfulback as assistants, Cuckoo as A.D. and Diehard as the Superintendent. Then we will get things straitened out. We'll call it "Waldron's Big Turn Around, Wins 4-A State Championship"!
it will never work. working on weekends, weightlifting, and 7 on 7.
Venny likes 7 on 7, Venny likes working Wk. ends, Venny likes weightlifting, so I think it will work! If it doesn't, Cuckoo and Diehard will be breathing down his neck....
If I was a coach and did 7 on 7, worked every weekend and lifted weights I still wouldn't be working as much as I am now...lol...going on vacation through Christmas...yippeeeeee...
Venny have a nice vacation and "Merry Christmas"!
You also my friend...and Dayton...here's to you getting the Waldron job and turning that program around...Merry Christmas Dayton!

Thanks Idoknow!


"This life is what you make it. No matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up because if you give up, you'll never find your soulmate. You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about."-Marilyn Monroe.

If Waldron wishes to continue doing the same thing they have for more than a decade then that is their decision.

I do not understand why posting on here should make a difference one way or the other.

It's not just posting on here, it's what you post. When you talk about not working weekends and not doing 7 on 7 people view that in a negative way. Davis refused to do 7 on 7, so I'm sure the powers that be wants a coach that wants to participate in that stuff and make their kids better. They look around and see other schools doing it and being successful...and the working on weekends is a no brainer during the season Dayton. That is just crazy on your part...

You have to look at Cody's track record, he's never stayed anywhere very long! It will be a pay raise and he will get more out of the kids, but don't expect him to stay around very long, maybe 2 or3 yrs.

Per the Atkins and Waldron school websites....Cody is making around 10K more at Atkins than Shane Davis did at Waldron...I don't know how the payscale works at Waldron but it might not be that big of a raise if any at all...

Davis's contract says 53,471 on a 238 day contract(from the public files on Waldron's website)....most up to date Atkins salary's I can find is from last year...and Tommy Cody's listed salary is 61,500(Base of 47K)...With 35 extra days on the contract....
HF, you're getting into Cody's personal life when you start posting what his salary is. I know it's public knowledge and you can go to most schools web site to find salary schedules, but to post it on FF. Is wrong. I'm sure Cody would not approve of this!This is like some of your other post , always sticking your nose and commenting on things that none of your business. You really need to take a "Time Out".

...If Cody didn't want his salary known he shouldn't have become a football coach at a public school. You can look up every single person's salary at every single public school in the state(probably nation)....as far as a timeout, that's my business not yours. I'm over at my parents house spending time with my dad whenever I can...that's none of YOUR business, so I suggest you keep your nose out of mine. 

And I wasn't doing it to just do it...I was posting it in response to Coach Jones post.(that a Move from Atkins to Waldron may not actually be a pay raise as he suggested) And for the record that's not even what he made last year....that was from 2012. But it's whatever...if the Administrators of the board want to ban me cause I crossed a line...then so be it...

And I've gone back and edited the original post(or will here in a minute)...but it doesn't matter...as it'll still be on the board in your post that you quoted it....

Come on Sugar, you know someone should never get on here and personalize information about an individual, especially his salary. Don't you think that's going a little bit to far! As been stated on here numerous times, School Salaries are public knowledge, but should not be posted. If this was you, how would feel?

The salarys of ALL coaches is public knowledge, The Arkansas dem-gazette published the salary of every head football coach in the state of Arkansas about 2 or 3 years ago. It is not that big a deal to put them on a message board if they are being put in the state paper. The dem-gazette has also published the salary of every superintendent in the state within the past 4 or 5 years.

Every person who is paid from the public trough is subject to the state's freedom of information act.  Teachers and coaches (who are considered teachers)have their salaries published on the web site of each school district.  Maybe not by name ( although some are) but by position.  All can be obtained legally and ethically.

DH, by Webster Dictionary Troll has a lot definitions and the closest thing I found that could be used was, (trol) n [ON] Scand. I never took the time to look the word up and the first person to use this word didn't either. Other definitions are, sing in parts, sing in full voice, fish with a baited line trailed behind a slowly moving boat, Folklore a supernatural being, as a giant or dwarf, living in a cave. I guess we need to tell Cuckoobird the Troll of the Yr., he needs to look at these definitions and see which pertains to this award. LOL!

I never took the time to look the word up and the first person to use this word didn't either. Other definitions are, sing in parts, sing in full voice, fish with a baited line trailed behind a slowly moving boat, Folklore a supernatural being, as a giant or dwarf, living in a cave. I guess we need to tell Cuckoobird the Troll of the Yr., he needs to look at these definitions and see which pertains to this award. LOL!
BAHAHAHAHAHA!

I asked because you told HF to troll on. :)     Did you play football in HS Idoknow?

Dayton Kitchens
Circa 2014Any chance that you have ever met Dayton Kitchens? I wonder if you would be so hard on Dayton if you really knew him ( except on ff) I know Dayton and know the coaching  / teaching conditions at augusta. I do not know how many coaches would come to augusta and try to do what Dayton does. I only know him as a coach and his teams are fundamentally sound with  their alignment , tech, and pursuit of the ball.  He mans up with a mixture of zone in the secondary. I understand that he does not  see his players at practice everyday (some do not come to school on a regular basis) and probably does get enough reps during the week which would result in looking uncoached on Friday nights. I think he is truly trying to make a positive difference in lives of the kids and should be patted on the back and not punched in the stomach. I think Dayton does a good job at augusta and he needs to understand that his critics   are people who have formed their opinions of him on a forum and not in person. coaches have a tuff job with athletes, parents, administrators, school boards and now..fearlessfriday critics.

You're Welcome!

What position did you play in HS or how many sports?     You seem to know a lot, and a lot of Coaches. 

I'd like to know if you are willing to share.   I know you posted that you aren't a coach....you have me curious. :)

What??   I think I know what.....;) lol! :)


Dayton and Venny I think will always banter....but Venny does know Dayton I think from Mansfield?   Not sure but it seems like it has been discussed before!  :)

I am sure (with 39 pages ) that the volunteer coach story has been discussed and would assume that calling Dayton a volunteer coach is your way of cutting him down because you would know that volunteer coaches do not exist in football, basketball and track in Arkansas. Dayton could be a nontraditional  teacher/coach and could legally  be coaching and teaching but the volunteer track is not available in those sports, however the role of volunteer critic is available to anybody ..

According to AAA you have to be a "Certified Teacher" with a Coaching Endorsement, which means picking up the required College Hrs., that pertains to coaching. Then a teacher can help in all (High School Sports). Non certified people can not help with you're three major sports,(Fb, Bb, Track)! Anyone helping in these other sports are called Volunteers!

I think he is truly trying to make a positive difference in lives of the kids and should be patted on the back and not punched in the stomach. I think Dayton does a good job at augusta and he needs to understand that his critics   are people who have formed their opinions of him on a forum and not in person. coaches have a tuff job with athletes, parents, administrators, school boards and now..fearlessfriday critics.
Well...cry me a river...Dayton fundamentally sound? Look at what his volunteer defenses gave up this year...Dayton brings this on himself...
I am sure (with 39 pages ) that the volunteer coach story has been discussed and would assume that calling Dayton a volunteer coach is your way of cutting him down because you would know that volunteer coaches do not exist in football, basketball and track in Arkansas. Dayton could be a nontraditional  teacher/coach and could legally  be coaching and teaching but the volunteer track is not available in those sports, however the role of volunteer critic is available to anybody ..
Thank you Mrs. Kitchens...
Venny, Venny, Venny...Its obvious that you do not play well with others and may have a little bully in you but you are really a funny guy , but I can see that your role as a volunteer critic is extremely important to you and your identity on fearlessfriday.. I will do my best not to contest the volunteer critic...
Ahhh yet another stalker...lol...another challenger...lol...and another that will fall by the wayside...it's okay Mrs. Kitchens, Dayton will get a real job soon...

If you took notice, the jobs that are open every yr. are those that are similar to Waldrons. Usually rebuilding jobs! Every now and then a really good job opens up, may be through retirement or a good coach taking another job, these are the jobs that are hard to get.

The other schools along with Waldron all can turn in to be great jobs with the right mindset.  I have never understood why Coaches wish to go unchallenged it seems?   It's easy to step into a program with a great foundation along with tradition(which all schools have or have had at one point)..but to have a chance to build a program how they want from the ground up looks like that would be something they want....they can truly help teach and coach kids who want to learn how to win again or win more than previous years.  Fan support would be there greater than ever.  Wins solve a lot.   I guess it all depends on the what a coach wants.  IMO.

I think this will be a very good hire. As he mentioned in the article it will be tough these first 2 years in the 7-4a but then going back north. I am interested to see what offense and defense he wants to run. I would guess something similar to Booneville and Pottsville.

Coach Mann made it interesting comment in the Times Records' article: "Waldron has had successful years here in the past," Mann said. "The people here are hungry and they are committed to the program. There are some good kids coming up through the junior high system and with a new football stadium, new high school the facilities are great."
What? Mann looked at the Junior High????? Looked at the talent coming up?????? Wow!

Just wondering about the future for Waldron. What was the junior high's record? I know they had a bunch of players and some big kids, with a couple of good skill position players.

Jr. High success is not necessarily transferrable to Sr. High.   Nor is Jr. High failure.    Games are 50% longer.    Games are much more closely officiated.    And other tangibles and intangibles.
Any coach who applies at Waldron (or any school as far as this goes) that has had success in the past will be intelligent enough to inquire into the performance of the junior high as this will have an impact upon the future of the senior high team. He will want to know what caliber of skill position players and linemen he will inherit, and the potential for their development into a successful program. Now granted, some coaches don't emphasize winning as much at that lower level as they want to concentrate on the fundamentals and proper execution of their offensive and defensive schemes. But I'm pretty sure that if a team has had success at the junior high level the chances are better that they will at the senior high level as well.

Anyway, lol, how did the junior high do at Waldron this year?
Hmmmmmm.

They have good numbers and some decent 9th grade athletes but that is it.  Above and below them doesn't have much.  I know this by watching every football game between booneville and Waldron for the last several years from pee wee all the way up.  Does that mean they couldn't develop or a couple kids may mature...no.  But there are no glaring good groups other than the 9th grade class.  It's gonna stink for Mann trying to build a program in that new conference they are dropping in to.  Man it's stout.  Better make an easy non conference schedule if they want to get a  win or two next year!

No promises on wins and losses but the kids and community will ultimately be better. Good luck Coach Mann and kidos, community you better get ready.  He's nobodies fool.

Wow I am surprised Dale Mann took this job. He must be wanting to get back to the area for family reasons plus he's around the mid-fifties, so maybe he's looking for a place to finish out his career. If this is true Waldron got a dandy, not only in football but a superb baseball coach as well! Can he put Waldron on the winning track? Will be fun to watch for sure!
He applied for the Charleston DC job last year but did not get it said he was wanting to get back in this area.

I didn't know he applied at Charleston last year. Quite a contrast with Waldron. I wish him the best of luck, not only is he a good coach but a good man as well. A good Mann man!!

Uh VS. 

"twice as many"?   2 X 0 is still 0.   You've just bet that Coach Mann will have a winless season in 2014 at Waldron.

Did you mean to say you "bet that Mann would win at least two games this year"?

No Dayton, twice as many as in if he wins 2 games he will have won twice as many...don't get all technical now. I know your feelings are hurt because your boy sucked it up and because you didn't get an interview...

there are 2 kinds . one is running your regular season routes and getting good practcie in for your recievers and defensive backs. the other is running 7on7 routes that don't work in a real game so you can win 7on7 games. i think 7on7 benefits your defense as much as your offense.

Do you think Idoknow is lost at the AAA looking for Waldron's non conference games?
No, not at AAA. Lol! Been out of state, "What's Up"?

Sheshouldknow!
Nope....my Uncle is not Jack!  ;D

Hang on.......


















phew....that was close....I thought maybe someone changed my name to Venny! Lol
:)


I do however think that Waldron will continue to play Venny's team...Mansfield in non conference just because it has always been a big rival game.

That only leaves what 2 more games??

Huge game coming up in Week One of the 2014 season with the debut of the Dale Mann Era at the helm of the Waldron Bulldogs. After an offseason in the weightroom and hitting the 7-on-7 circuit, the Bulldogs will travel to Tiger Stadium in Mansfield for a battle with arguably their top rival. With the start of a new season and a new coach, hopes in the community are riding high that Mann and his staff can put a product on the field that is competitive, disciplined, and riding a current of support from fans and administrators that will propel them toward the beginning of a new tradition.
Okay it's almost March, time to begin predicting the score, let's hear it!!

Since this is a non-conference game and probably the only rivalry game Waldron has, do to changing Conference, I would think the 1st. game would be best way for these two teams to start the season. Big money game with a lot of interest, only a few miles between schools.

I agree with you both........  Waldron and Mansfield....The Battle of Scott County is a huge game.    Another that might be considered a rival would be Paris....they have played on and off for years.

That will be good then for the Bulldogs.


I also heard they hired Clay Foster?   I believe he also had Coached with Coach Mann.    I did have some friends tell me that at a scrimmage they attended the team was WELL Organized and seemed to be playing a more physical style of ball....I assume that's some of the Booneville coming out!!  :)
Sounds very interesting. Should be fun to see what offense and defense they will run and the level of physicality they will have under Mann. AND if he and his staff can make them competitive.

At the scrimmage someone noted that it looked as if they were running some plays similar to a Pro I but it's still very early.  I'm sure Coach Mann and his staff are working hard and as we all know, they will need a little time to integrate their system and style of ball in Waldron.  :)

Looking back I think I might've contributed to some of the threads longevity.

I went back to page 1 and noticed that I had made a comment about Waldron's team speed.   I didn't mean it maliciously as I've said,  not all teams (both good and bad) have speed.

I also defended Shane Davis given he was (and still is) a friend and I got annoyed that so many people attributed EVERY bit of his success at Strong to Kenneth Dixon.

When's the last time you saw a Times Record reporter consult a Waldron Head Football Coach for his opinion on AAA rule changes. Today's paper had an article with Mann giving his opinion on combining 3A and 4A teams for conference play and even a potential set of teams for a conference. That shows the respect he already has with the press. Or maybe since he's new the only accurate cell phone number to reach him in the summer LOL.

Everything I have heard has only been positive.   It's not going to be easy but from what I understand he is very determined.   The new conference Waldron is in, will be especially tough.   I just hope in a few years Waldron will be able to switch out of it.....seems like a lot of bus travel from his comments in the newspaper.

Listening to drive time sports yesterday it sounds like Waldron got a good head coach and very good assistant. Looking at their roster in Hooten's it will probably not equate to a win this year but maybe they can get more players out and try to build something for the future.

But that's the past, right??

Hopefully, with the hiring of all New Coaches, and good ones, it will turn around for them in a couple of years.

They hired new Basketball Coaches too, I heard.    I do know that I read they are attending team camps.   It all seems to be developing and that's good. 

It will be hard for Waldron, with the schedule I've seen in conference games for football this year, but maybe their non-conference games, with Lavaca, Paris and Mansfield they might could get a win or more.

Title: Re: Waldron's on road to Success

There are numerous programs in the state that need the "right" coach to come along to even have a shot at success. The problem is, most of these schools that I'm talking about are virtual dumpster fires that most coaches wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole. On one hand, it turns into a money issue as well. The administrators are putting bandades over bullet wounds by patching the system up with young, semi-experienced coaches for less money. On the other hand, an older coach may come in, on his way out, so to speak, and coach for a few more years before retiring. This is just a broad generalization, because I don't know the situation at Waldron.
Title: Re: Waldron's on road to Success
Post by: nuttinbuthogs on December 24, 2014, 12:44:23 pm
I would think that good coaches require a lot of things to get them to stick around at a questionable situation.  Money, talent, support from administration, parents, players.  Never seen a place that said the kids are not talented and the parents and admin don't offer much support, money and facilities are terrible, but come take this job anyway.
Didn't Marion Glover spend a year at a not very good school and people thought he would turn them around?  He left quickly.

Many variables....you can hear anything.   It's my understanding that all are committed and doing everything they can.     

Everyone is always quick to point out what they think is wrong and criticize but those same that do so are unwilling to fill the stands to even try and show support.    It starts with the community and parents getting back involved.     It has been so long since they have won a football game that it had caused more ill feelings than good.   Atmosphere means a lot.     Not to mention the fact that some took advantage of people who wanted to help and gave of their time but never received acknowledgement or a Thank you.   

Hard to over come some things but people need to lay all that aside and start anew with their support and attitudes....instead of saying, here we go again.     Just my opinion.     Sleep dawg sleep.  :)

It's a beautiful post...  Football is a FREAKING CONTACT SPORT - you either want to play it or you don't.  I don't think my mommy went to any of my high school games - I know she never went to a college game.  All I wanted to do was play football - didn't give a rip if one fan was in the stands.  Atmosphere?  Who's atmosphere?  No one could stop me from playing football - certainly didn't need to be coaxed.  All this talk about love, support, and encouragement is for the Cheerleaders, Majorettes, or Band Members.  What are we even talking about parents getting involved?  It's either Coaches, Players, or Both!

Largest 4A is Monicello with 485.67.  Smallest non private school is Gentry with 303.67.  Waldron comes in at 365.67.  These are the numbers the AAA uses to split up the classifications.

True....but to my knowledge their Coach now......Dale Mann is used to a tradition rich program also, being from Booneville.   

In my opinion, if you have parents or people that possibly speak or feel negatively about sports and say it in front of their kids, it can have a negative impact on the child.   All kids are not the same.   Drive and ambition has to come from somewhere....either from encouragement or something to help motivate them to want to play and win.    Again there are many variables that has helped cause the situation I have heard.

Good Lord - 365 students.  That's just country football right there.  All you can do is coach what you have and hope 2 or 3 athletes cycle through, now and then.

My opinion...if their parents got their tails handed to them in football by 50-0 and raised up kids....after having a negative experience you tell me if sports is going to take center stage at that house??    More than likely not.   And what if you have people who constantly bad mouth the program?    The kids hear that stuff....whether at home or at school from friends, websites....  And what if they have to work instead?

Including 9th?  Probably not 150 males in the whole school.  Two or Three Athletic Families can make all the difference in country schools.  Think of all the schools where Dad was a star - his brother - both their sons - etc..  Most small schools with good football programs - have family legacy's.

Awwwwww heck no - don't get much more country than I (watching wild turkeys at this moment - wife just called said get deer out of the freezer - going to limit out on Mallards in the morning).   It is what it is -  Dardanelle gets one athlete transfer and suddenly they're the best team in 4A.  Even Waldron might beat them next year.  Or Charleston - because of the competition we have no idea what caliber QB, Ty Story, is.  Didn't you say Bo @ Warren had under achieved because of not winning state with past D1 Players?  I agree with you!

So Waldron probably has 180 males in the top three grades. I don't know what the average percentage is, maybe around 35-40% of that figure normally play football at an average school. So Waldron should have about 63 to 72 kids out each year. In watching the Bulldogs I have observed that number is usually accurate in junior high, but they drop dramatically in senior high. Is this because the kids begin specializing in a sport? Too many have to get jobs? Grade eligibility? They seem to have some athletes walking the hallways that should be on the gridiron.

Can someone help us using core math?  It was posted that there are 365 students in the Top 4 grades.  So take a hundred off that - 265 in the Top 3 grades.  Divide that by two (female / males)  132.  What's the percentage of males to females 40/60?  There might only be 106 males in the top 3 grades - certainly not 180.  Using your numbers - 106 x .35 = 37.1 is the number of players expected to play football.  Yes there should be a significant drop off from Jr High to High School.

Just to help out this argument here...Real Numbers from the ADE Data Center Site...Actual Enrollment for Waldron 10-12 is at 338. Males make up 56.5% of the Waldron High School Population(9-12)...Sooo 191 Males with an expectation of 67 players with the formula you are using.

Actually I just realized OldSchool wrote 9th-11th, not 12th....  Anyhow I just wanted to know what size they are compared to their opponents.  Waldron is a smaller 4A, with only 338 students.

I used the three grades the AAA uses for the classifications.  I didn't pull up the total from the ADE sight.  Waldron is roughly in the upper bottom half of enrollment in 4A.  Enrollment is not the problem.

Today's paper had an article with Mann giving his opinion on combining 3A and 4A teams for conference play and even a potential set of teams for a conference. That shows the respect he already has with the press. Or maybe since he's new the only accurate cell phone number to reach him in the summer LOL.

They scrimmaged Hackett this season early in the year and we moved the ball how we wanted and held their offense to very minimal movement. As a 4A school I think you should have the numbers and athleticism to beat and move the ball on a smaller school like ours simply from the number advantage. They just don't seem to have it. The kids were fired up and you could tell they wanted to be there. I'm not really sure what the problem is..

HIt a run of athletes, a different school board, superintendent, AD, principal, coaches.  ???? What changed between the losing and the wining?

While nuttingbutthog is being somewhat annoying, he does bring up an interesting question.  Asking someone who was there - was there a specific change between 2003 and the next decade?  Did a good run of athletes graduate and the interest just fall off?  Classification?  Seems like I remember hearing the town has lost industry?

There last winning season they had a kid that ran a legit 4.5 forty yard dash at RB..... That will always help you win some games in small town football. I know people like to throw 4.5 around here when the kid is really a 4.7 but they had a RB then that did and it showed in the win column.

I hear they have commitment problems. Hard to get kids out and keep them coming.  Wanting it and being willing to do what it takes is not the same thing. What were the last two winning seasons at Waldron?
2002 and 2003 because Waldron randomly had a 4.4 RB

He'll be 4.3 next time this story is told.  Wondering if he ran in the Olympics or College?

I think honestly Waldron has just hit a bad dry spell on athletes. Look at Magazine, they were a cupcake homecoming team to beat up on, then in two years transformed into a powerhouse state champion. They had a run of good athletes who hardly ever lost come through and they turned the place around for a couple of years. They've since graduated and Magazine is back to the cupcake era, lol. Waldron gets some good athletes to come through and a little luck and you never know what could happen.

Coach May is the guy to get it done at Waldron. I thought they would break the streak this past season but they came up short a couple times.

Actually 5 good seasons including a State title, a semifinal, a quarterfinal, and 2008 and 2013.   We weren't bad in '99 and '00.

May can get it done in Waldron if he remains there long enough. 

And Kearney was really good back in those years.

I believe it is in the high 30's or low 40's... someone can correct me if I am wrong on that. I think Waldron gets it done this year and actually wins multiple games. Call me crazy. Multiple only means 2 or more so 2 will do the job for my prediction.

If Mansfield is having the troubles I am hearing then I believe Waldron gets it done this year. I am thinking Waldron wins week 1 against their neighbor to the north. They also could beat West Fork and Subiaco potentially in conference with their move to the more friendly 4-4A. West Fork is moving to 4A at the wrong time with a loss of a lot of talent. I predict Waldron wins 2 games this year.

Well.....Waldron is getting fancy new turf!!!    A price tag of around (give or take) $800,000.   Believe that is what I heard.

Ricky May and his son Brock both were mentioned in the Times Record.   I believe I read that Brock hadn't ever lost but 7? games from Pee-wee up until he began coaching at Waldron.   According to the article they look to be favorable this year.   I hope so!

I think Waldron is capable of getting the 3 seed if everything fell right for Waldron behind Booneville and Dardanelle. That would possibly be good enough to host a playoff game in Waldron. That would be something..... I think a head to head win over Ozark could get them the 3 seed this year. I am fairly confident they'll take all three games of West Fork, Subiaco, and Dover. Pottsville and Ozark will be the games that decide if Waldron goes to an even higher level. That would be one of the stories of the year if they can get that done.

Ozark according to FF stats leads the series 6-2-0 BUT Waldron has Home Field advantage tonight!


I'm not sure what number meeting this is between the two but hoping for a Bulldog Win!   


Community Support is building, team atmosphere is building and Coach May is building wins.

First time since 2003.   14 Long years.   Hats off to Coach May and the entire Waldron team.


Waldron's  7th grade team is currently 8-0 and the Junior High team is 6-3.

Waldron has wins over....

Mansfield
Cedarville
West Fork
Subiaco
Dover

While 14 years seems like a long time...there is even a longer span.  The 1986 team made it to the playoff's and Waldron hadn't been since the 1940's.

The Bulldogs had definitely made strides as the season progressed.

They went from being gutted by Ozark to giving Pottsville a scare to edging out Booneville to outright blanking Dardy.

On top of that, their 7G also had a strong season.

Things are looking up in Scott Co.

7th grade team went undefeated, I read on twitter.     Jr. High team ended the season well, also.

The Pottsville at Waldron game was one of those games that was just mind blowing.  Pottsville loses 5 turn overs and some how managed to come out with a win. It took a scoop and score kick off in the final seconds.  I think Pottsville fumbled the ball around 10 times.  Waldron coaching just about pulled out the win.  The future looks good for Waldron.
