I agree with the statement above. Mainly because Smith wouldn’t have left with 2 ringers in a row coming up. Or, even 1. NO high school football coach is gonna leave a team he thinks he can win a Championship with. I think they expected a down year at Boyle Co the year of Haddix’s arrival. They lost a ton, skill positions and especially at QB.

Saying that, I’m not saying he is better than Smith, but different styles suit diff rosters. Smith could possibly win with a roster that Haddix couldn’t. Haddix gets athletes in space with a less controlled playbook. Still don’t think Haddix’s name deserves to be on top with Smith. But, it will be if he stays in High School Football much longer. My opinion is, he will be a college coach at some point in his career. Saying that, he does have a son and he will want to coach him 7-8 years down the road. His son is 6 or close to it.
