Ricky was a great athletewho were the other 3 besides Bryson and where did they play?
Mitch Myers almost ran Murphy's football program into the ground, so his coaching chops (or lack thereof) is well documented. According to people at the time, Murphy had a state title caliber team in '78 with one of Murphy's greatest ever athletes in Ricky Lyles the feature attraction and he couldn't get them out of the first round of the playoffs.

They just hired one this year and my son said they have been in the weight room twice since school started!strenth & condition coach coach right now would be a +
That would be part of " rock solid" staff...that was mentioned earlier in a post..i may be dead wrong..wouldn't be 1st time...but i believe Hayesville can win..can compete year in year out with the The right staff in place..not just head coach but solid position coaches solid jv coaches ect..theres a formula that has worked really well across the mt...just saying..amd people laugh at ideal of Chappell going to swain..my gut tells me money wouldnt be an issue and if coach Blankenship gets out..wouldnt shock me a bit to see chappell in maroonLike I said need to hire one
Wouldn't shock me either seeing he is a SMC guy born and bred.That would be part of " rock solid" staff...that was mentioned earlier in a post..i may be dead wrong..wouldn't be 1st time...but i believe Hayesville can win..can compete year in year out with the The right staff in place..not just head coach but solid position coaches solid jv coaches ect..theres a formula that has worked really well across the mt...just saying..amd people laugh at ideal of Chappell going to swain..my gut tells me money wouldnt be an issue and if coach Blankenship gets out..wouldnt shock me a bit to see chappell in maroon
13 winning seasons since 1960!!! Still love my Jackets though.It looked like to me that the kids have a lack of desire to play football. Honestly Hayesville hasn't been known for football. Very few winning seasons.
I believe people in charge are going to have to realize that these things take time. New coach every 3 years isn't Healthy. Miller 09-11, Hughes 12-13, Myers 14-15, Dockery 16-18. It's hard to turn something around with those type of changes. Word is new administration isn't a good fit for Clay Co.Franklin had had less than that in 75 yrs before 2000..now 18/19 yrs at .500 or better..it can be done...all about attitude abd and work ethic along with internal expectations within the program..

Superintendent coached middle school ball for a couple of years! Whoever comes in better be ready to be told what to do and how to do it! He hired the S&S coach and my son has gotten weaker! The community will support the new coach for a year or so and if he doesn’t have instant results they want him gone! I hear it every Friday night sitting in the stands from parents who I know for a fact never played in High school. My son doesn’t play much but he loved Dockery and the other coaches and was excited to play ball now he is unsure! Hope it all works out and the Jackets come to be a football school!!!Havent heard of hayesvile contacting the coaches ive talked about above..correct me if im wrong but isnt the superintendent a former football coach? Be interesting to see if he puts an emphasis on football..i do know Hayesville allowed Franklin to come over and use there facility last week for practice with all the rain and the staff at Franklin raved about the staduim and the field...since there seems to be NO HOPE of ever getting turf in Macon county(but no need for a rant about some of the folks running our county) ..id say Former SM head coach and Franklin d cord Hawkins may have interest (pure speculation) and id say there may be others in Macon county that would " lend an ear" if Hayesville called..by the way is there any other word outta swain county about coach balnkenship stepping down at end of season?
Not sure of his background, but the Jackets have some talent and they should be better next year!Superintendent coached middle school ball for a couple of years!

Not after a whole off season of getting weaker .Not sure of his background, but the Jackets have some talent and they should be better next year!
With numbers like that they could be a powerhouse in the smc murphy just has 50 more boys than them, if it's a 50/50 split between boys and girlsHayesville has 370. They've not been above 400 for years
You truly are specialWith numbers like that they could be a powerhouse in the smc murphy just has 50 more boys than them, if it's a 50/50 split between boys and girls
murphy only has 470, at the rate murphy is loosing students they will be a non football school in a couple yearsYou truly are special
it takes awhile for a team to buy in to what your trying to do and what type of offense your trying run. we actually had most of the team bought in but injuries hit us very hard. As for the superintendent at hayesville he will brag about his football days but in reality there is none so take that info and do what you will with it. Also on a side note his son used to coach for towns county don't be surprised to see a father son duo witch would send hayesvilles football program straight down the drain.
There will be no change at Swain. Coach Blankenship there as long as he wants. Why would Swain go for a coach who has very little playoff success. This year for example.Thread mentions Swain going after Chappell numerous times. Hopefully his next step from Pisgah is back to his alma mater! The community has wanted him on the sidelines for years!
