ChiefRedCloud Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Started my coaching career there 25 yrs ago under Terry McCown. When I started enrollment was around 200. This last alignment enrollment was 376. A lot of change. When I was there they had great community and kids(not saying that has changed). We had pretty good success from around 2000-2010 they were competitive. But the growth had started. In 5 years there almost daily new housing construction started. I'm sure that has played a major part in the difference then and now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was promoted when former AD/Head Football left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nationalpastime Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I had a buddy interview to be the OC there a few years back. He said during the interview the (then) AD talked about how he was ready to be done with being the AD and this was after being the AD for not even a year. I'm not real sure what's going on there but every time I go through there it feels like something's off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiefRedCloud Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 They have struggled the last 10 or so years at football. Basketball and baseball have had some success. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eventually the kids came around and started playing football but it was towards the end of the regular season. Driskell didn't play them until like the 3rd/4th week after coming back.

Destry Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 My jury is still out on whether 7 on7 really helps the tackle football game or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nationalpastime Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 I really think there's something there outside of AAU/7 on 7. A lot of those "Mayberry" looking places don't want coaches pushing kids too hard but still want to go beat everyone. I'm sure there's also some people with stroke in the community that want their kids to be the studs but can't handle the fact the gene pool couldn't make it out of a puddle. I don't know if that's the case with Maypearl, but in a situation where there's this kind of instability that shows some alarm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEASTeastTX Posted October 21, 2022 Share Posted October 21, 2022 I think 7 on 7 is fine… I mean select baseball, AAU basketball isn’t as bad but it can be! I would just bet the font have a lot of players playing baseball AND football because they don’t want to get “hurt” for baseball because they are all going to get to the show…. or at least that’s what their “select” coach that their parents PAY say.

Facts, Football popularity is going down with a lot of single sport kids. it stinks and its not good developmentally but parents only hear the coaches saying its the only way to get "better" at that sport and other sports will harm "the option to play at the next level". Track is another sport that's losing numbers as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
