Congratulations to Somerset for hiring a quality coach! Im sure there were some interesting names in the hat for this job and I hope the administration did their due diligence in finalizing their selection. Hiring a new coach is a tough thing to do for schools with a long standing tradition.

I hope for his success but in my opinion he really needs to assemble his own staff and not really rely on the ones that were there. The defense at Somerset was good but I’ve seen that offense a couple times on their local Facebook video feed and it was dreadful.

Coach Clevenger really needs a whole staff of his own that compliments his vision for the product he hopes to put out on a field on Fridays. There will be some pressure to compete and win immediately after a couple of seasons of what looks to be underachievement.

Best of luck to the coach, players and fans!

The offense scored 251
the defensive gave up 392 points that’s 32.6 points per game given up !!!!! Your way off base here. Just saying


I respect your opinion. So I’ll just interject the numbers I see. I look at little differently. 

I see point production and surrendered versus opponent. 

This year per the KHSAA app, Somerset played 12 games. 5 teams were .500 or less and 7 teams were .500 or more. They were 4-1 against teams .500 or less and 2-5 against .500 or more. 

If my math is correct, the .500 teams Somerset out scores their opponent 139-127. Offense scored 23.1 a game and defense gave up 21.6. 

The teams above .500 the get out scored 270-112. Offense scored 18.7 a game and defense gave up 45 a game. Those numbers get real bad if you take out the Green county and Williamsburg totals. 

I think maybe you can be correct and make me say that the defense wasn’t good but the offense still was dreadful. But I am correct in saying they need a whole staff. I have no dog in this fight. I just hope the coach they hired has a lot of success.  

Best of luck.
