That's his play-calling philosophy in a nutshell (pardon the pun). The way to shut down Gilmer's offense (ahem, Coach Preston...Carthage) is to make the ground game an impossibility and keep us behind the chains. If you can't do that, it's probably going to be a long night. So that’s what we’ve been doing wrong the last umpteen years. Man thanks for the tip! Panthers got this in 2022. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoCo Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Fill the defense with extremely well coached elite level athletes. Carthage, China Spring, and PG over the last several years. In the same breath, there have been games Gilmer has put up yards and points against some of those elite teams. You have a phenomenal staff that has won a LOT of games. This offseason they have added two previous head coaches to the offense. There's a group coming up there that is supposed to be special, can't remember what grade it is though. Should be fun to watch for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be the first yr that he plays with kids that has came up under his system and his beliefs so we will see how it goes. this isn't college, where the coach recruits HIS KIDS... these are Gilmer kids that have played under Metzel in some capacity all along...
