They didn't even give G.A. a return shot?....:D

[crzyjournalist03]

They should have hired Brad McCoy.

[DavidWooderson]

I just wish they would have opened it up let some others apply because I think they would have had a lot of good applicants.

Best is a good guy and a good coach, the kids like him, so we'll see what happens.

[DavidWooderson]

He was the OC and QB Coach...or at least Assistant OC.

Yes he was and Pilot Point has no quarterback whatsoever to take the reigns, I mean nobody even took a snap besides Price at the varsity level..and as bad as we were to some, PP did have a couple blowouts....Would have thought the Qb/Ass. OC coach and AD/HC to be would have been grooming one for the 2011 season...:confused: ....And for the failed Press release: Funny thing is nowhere in there does it says "Has HC and AD experience at the High School level".....Just saying.

Pretty good run under Feldt. Looks like just one bad year. Can't say I disagree with this hire, that being considered.
As for grooming your future QB; first and foremost is the present season. If you spend too much time preparing for the next season, you won't be around to see it.

Ernest I respect your opinions as always, but would like to point out there is a big difference in "too much time" and "No time" when it comes to grooming a QB, I mean the two phrases are at different ends of the spectrum....

When you're having the season that PP was having, you stay closer to that "no time" end of the spectrum. Once the kids figure out that you're preparing for next season(and it doesn't take them long), they'll pack it in. Gotta keep the wheels on and try to salvage the current season.

[DavidWooderson]

Well I think he means is grooming a QB at the JV level. They went through like 3 or 4 kids at QB, and the one they stuck with the longest still wasn't that great.

There were 2 kids that would have been ready to step in this year and play QB, but the quit football because of how they were treated by the former head coach. (I don't know if there's any truth to that, but that was their reasoning).

The best prospect at QB for all levels in PP will be a Freshman next year. Is that fair for a Freshman to throw him to the dogs his first year of high school? Who knows maybe one or both of those others that quit will come back now that Feldt is leaving BUT would you really want to put leadership and responsibility on a quitter?

If the freshman is the best you have or is in a position to be a contributor, then you have to throw him out there. If he's gonna be a backup, you leave him down and let him get every rep possible.
Sometimes you just have a bad class or two come through, especially at the smaller schools. Sounds like PP has a couple classes without a QB. That happens.

[DavidWooderson]

Oh I totally agree with you. And yes they do.

Well from listening to you Pilot Point folks it appears that Pilot Points program is officially in the tank. It's sad that a once powerful program boys and girls has fallen so far.

[DavidWooderson]

I wouldn't go that far to say it's in the tank. Right now the boys basketball team is battling for the 3rd place right now in a tough basketball district and should be competitive in both baseball and softball.

HOWEVER Not saying that the well is dry, but could be a hard couple of years for PP, mainly because the next couple of classes aren't "loaded" to what PP is used to. Not saying they're bad, they're just not typcal PP. But the 9th grade, 8th grade, and esp the 7th grade are loaded and it's gonna be a few years but we'll be back.
