Vott Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Most of us probably dont go to the college thread as much, so I posted this here. What in the world is wrong with PRCC! They have played 3 games and the offense has yet to put points on the board. They got shutout in the season opener and have scored 3pts in game 2 and 3pts last night. With all the talent coming from Poplarville Picayune, Petal Hattiesburg Oak Grove, Columbia, and many out of state players something is for sure not right down there. It is pretty embarrassing. The defense is not bad. But they can only do so much. I see a winless season coming up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroontide06 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Things definitely aren't looking good there. I don't know how you can go 6-3 last year and just a win away from the playoffs to this disaster. The only logic that I can come up with is the classes of sophomores to freshmen isn't even. There's got to be a fairly even balance of the two classes since the roster changes every year. I realize JUCO is difficult to reload, but heck Hatten was able to get it done. I'm like you Vott, I honestly don't know what's going on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroontide06 Posted September 22, 2023 Share Posted September 22, 2023 Maybe this will be an avenue for Seth to get back into his niche and then he won't have to worry about recruiting and all that jazz. You can't just coach at the JUCO level and you've got to wear many hats. Some coaches are built for it and others aren't and that's ok. There's a lot less working against you coaching at the high school level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroontide06 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 A 9 game season and you don't score your first touchdown until the 4th game. The article said they missed 3 field goals last night against Hinds. The River was up 21-7 at halftime and managed to lose 24-21 in OT. Why do you take your foot off the gas pedal? I don't even know if they'll win a game this year. I'll be pleasantly surprised if they do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroontide06 Posted September 29, 2023 Share Posted September 29, 2023 I'll just go ahead and put this out there bluntly: The River wasn't this bad when Ted Egger was coaching them (the coach before Seth). I know they want to fix things there, but you've got to have some talent and some team chemistry. This thing can't be a yo-yo because frankly that's unacceptable. There's a way to establish winning consistency at the JUCO level, but for some reason or another it's just not happening there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they wont be getting a win anytime soon with gulf coast jones and co-lin being the next 3 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope and they were just a fluke loss away from making the playoffs last year. What a difference a year makes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastfootballfanman Posted October 5, 2023 Share Posted October 5, 2023 Seth is in over his head. Being the play caller like he was at East Central HS and being a play caller at the collegiate level are two different things. Questionable recruiting has doomed them. Other than East Central CC, I do not see a game where I think they can win. Seth I believe is suited more for high school and that is fine. He gave this his best shot and it does not seem to be working out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maroontide06 Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Welp 52-21 was the final score last night. Don’t really know what else to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastfootballfanman Posted October 8, 2023 Share Posted October 8, 2023 East Central is about the only winnable game left for them I see. They are looking 0-9 or 1-8 in the face. Seth has had 4 seasons to get it together and outside of last year, he’s went 2-4 and 2-7. I do not see how you keep him on. He has had 2 different OC’s leave before the start of the season. Something just is not adding up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have they type of year that you had last year, you should be able to build off of that and at least maintain the bare minimum of wins you had. The freefall hasn't ended unfortunately.

maroontide06 Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 Last night really wasn't a tale of two halves so to speak. It was more or less Co-Lin waiting to turn the afterburners on and they started that in the second quarter. The River has 8 quarters of football left and frankly I don't know why they want to drag it out another two weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coastfootballfanman Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 They will let Seth finish it out but I do not see him getting to next year. You could see it in the second half, the players do not believe anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maroontide06 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 I wonder why we haven't heard anything in regards to a coaching change at The River? Was the Southwest win enough to keep him employed there? Are they waiting for Pearl River Central to officially open up? You would think you would have heard about something by now.

I was told by some folks up that way that he is getting one more year. He was told to hire an OC, keep that OC and let them do their job. If they suck next year he is done.

Dragging out the inevitable unfortunately isn't the solution, but I reckon that's the hand that's been dealt. When this high school coaching carousel cranks back up into high gear somebody needs to give him a call. The River just ain't found another Tim Hatten yet and it looks like they've settled with that.

From what I have been told, that is probably the biggest detriment he has. He likes to have his hand involved in every detail, which at the college level usually does not fly with coordinators/assistant coaches and usually leads to losses. His last two OC's lasted barely a month, so hopefully he has learned the error of his ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
