Has the Swain program slipped from a elite powerhouse program???
I hope not. I loved the Murphy Swain games with everything on the line.

I mean you have a point. If you take away the Wildcat, Panther, Tisho class, Swain hasnt had a good team by there standards since 2004.Could be the Cherokee kids are staying at Cherokee lol
Daddy BallI think the overkill of coaches is becoming an issue at many places. Not uncommon to go to a high school football game and see 12 coaches on the sideline, 5 coaches on a basketball sideline or in a baseball dugout. Over complication of things is a huge downfall for high school sports teams.
You know what they say, those who can’t coach...tired of these sideline coaches living vicariously thru players successDaddy Ball

I mean I know Cherokee is keeping more kids at home and the Swain kids are coming back .
It is rampant in Swain County
JV team last year .... Parents ripping apart coaching staff. Dad's who have coached their kids and just can't turn loose of the reigns. Puts kids in a bad spot. Do they listen to their ciach, oror the Dad? I KNOW this to be happening. I have several friends who coach there.Please clarify?
Not Daddy Ball in the sense that you are thinking. Dad's who can't turn loose of their kid. Dad's who undermine the coaching staff.How is there daddy ball on varsity? No players are related to coaches? Best player plays. At least that should be the case. Perhaps there has been some senior favoritism over the last few seasons but I would not consider that daddy ball......

Do dads coach at Swain ? I’m not that into the loop at Swain ? Just stating outside observations
[/QUOTE]This should not be happening but I’m sure it does with every team. As a parent, I would not undermine the coaching staff. I have learned to stay back and have the kids learn from the coaches. As a parent I still give feedback to my kids and how to improve or things to work on. But I don’t and won’t tell them not to listen to the coaches. I tell them to say yes sir and learn what they want you to do so you perform at your best.
I was in Asheville and overheard some people from down yonder taking about that game. The one guy says, “ Is Smoky that good”? The other man says hell no. He says, we looked like we haven’t ever seen a football before. He said we have a kid that’s 6’8 and is lost in the sauce. The first man said damn wonder what’s going on. The second man says, coaches don’t have a clue. Players don’t have a clue. I went on to wonder...what is happening in Swain Co?!
