There are no coaches at Mize that are interested in the Tville job. That I can assure you. I know Adrian Agee is at Tville and he will be interested. I think he has a chance to get it. Depends on who all else applies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s young, so obviously he still gonna learn a lot. I will be honest though, I’m very surprised he got the sumrall job considering he only has 1 year of head coaching experience.

aaron miller Posted January 13, 2025 Share Posted January 13, 2025 shouldn’t be surprised with sumrall administration running the show i hope they aren’t setting him up for failure he will have athletes but most don’t know the game practices have been soft for years but people of sumrall will get behind him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So their coaching can’t have been too bad to have had the season they had last year. Sumrall has been a baseball school - primarily - as of late. But they’ve always had enough football talent to have guys playing at the next level here & there. So there are athletes in the system. They just need to be developed and disciplined. If the new coach can come in and build relationships, he’ll do fine. Sumrall is a community that’ll come together and get behind coaches who pour into their athletes.

aaron miller Posted January 13, 2025 Share Posted January 13, 2025 yea if you think over 2/3 losing record in basketball is a good thing 300 and some losses to 100 something wins they play a soft schedule and if they make it to playoffs they get trounced not saying we don’t have players but it takes a team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a good coach he left to Petal and got this cat and everybody got worse.

None having winning track record based on these numbers here. You can't base it on playoff appearances b/c of MHSAA taking 4 teams each division. They may have made the playoffs with 1-2 wins. Must be different numbers out there for these guys, or better applicants but that's just an opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
