Coach Myers resigns....Kenneth Dockery Head Coach at Hayesville High!
Hayesville Coaching Change
- Thread starter WHC02
- Start date
Really like giving a young coach the chance after the results the Jackets have had with the last few coaches.
Can't be any worse then they have been the last 2 years. (0-12) in SMC play under Coach Myers and his staff.
Does this mean they will be switching from the YouTube defense???
Congratulations to Coach Dockery....A much deserved promotion as KD has been at Hayesville for quite a while now, and has already coached both sides of the ball as mentioned above....
Think the Yellowjackets made a good hire because he knows the football program as well as anyone in Hayesville...!
Good luck to the Yellowjackets and Coach Dockery!
Great move Dockery deserves it hopefully won't take long to get things turned around
More importantly, hope he gets the chance to "rid" himself of a few coaches!
Hopefully Hayesville will have some PE, history, etc. type teaching positions available (even if at the middle school or elementary school) so he can bring in a few guys he wants. It will be hard to get any good, qualified coaches to come in without P.E. or similar type teaching positions available.
All most all the coaches from last year were retired former teachers or volunteers. There are few former coaches he might want to get involved again but I am sure they would work with him to fix the program.
I have no dog in the fight and not trying to knock this hire. However, if you look at it logically, if this coach was already a coordinator on both sides of the ball at different times then what makes the fan base for the Jackets think that there is going to be such a huge change in philosophy and management of the team? Why is the result going to be drastically different? As a coordinator obviously he already had a lot of input and influence on the program. Just saying I don't think there will be a major difference in the program. But anyway good luck to Hayesville.
Good question. Let me try to answer it. Several of the recent head coaches were older and the players did not feel as if they were invested in them. No real relationship. Coach Doc has a good relationship with them. They feel he is ready to make a long term commitment to building a program. There is also a belief that Doc was held back by previous head coaches as they were micro-managers and insisted on doing things their way. Much of the excitement and enthusiasm for the last few years in the program was a result of Doc's efforts. I look for several former assistants to return to the staff.
Any of you Hayesville posters know if there will be a change in the offense or defense for next year?
I sorta liked it when they waived their arms at us as running back went through the hole!!!
