Shawn Hager Resigns as Floyd Central Coach

He’ll be good for Mays and if they can keep Buck at FC with Cotton, they can be pretty dangerous on the outside if Mays can develop. He’s very raw. Jags will have to basically replace their entire offensive line. That’s a HUGE issue any incoming coach needs to be aware of. Defensively, FC was bad. Might’ve had the worst defense in 2A. Now, you return a a good DL in Ethan Curry. If he’s giving effort, he’s really good. Bailey Evans stood out at times to me also for the Jags on defense. Elijah Little is a kid that could have a good year also for FC. Outside of those few, guys need to build confidence and put in the work necessary. Otherwise, there’s going to be a TON of holes and weaknesses in that defense again.

Now I wish nothing but success for the Jaguars. I like a lot of folks from down there, but Leslie County is entering our district. Knott returns the bulk of their team, Martin Co loses the bulk of their team, but they return Maynard, and Prestonsburg could have one of their best teams since early 2010s. So I’d say Floyd Central will enter the season predicted to finish last in district play and if that’s how it plays out, they’ll miss the playoffs.

Whether it’s Hoskins or someone else, they’ll have their work cut out for them. Going to need a tight knit and solid group of assistants who buy in. Most definitely need a quality group of men to coach the feeder program and the next coach likely needs to be hands on to get that up and running correctly.

Most importantly, you’ve gotta convince the basketball and baseball players that football will never be a quality product at that school until they start putting on the pads too and going through the two a days. I don’t care if Nick Saban was the coach, if you don’t have the jimmy’s and joes, you cannot win the games that matter.

Best of luck to whomever gets the job.

Got to agree with you on keeping Buck and Cotton together which they will Buck isn’t going anywhere. Hoskins will turn Mays into a weapon I think with the players you’ve said as in Curry, Evans could be very effective and I hope Little has a good year as you’ve said. I’ve heard Evans might not play and a sleep on the team I seen as Valley is Daniel Swigger I think is his name at LB. Offensively I think you see 65/35 with the run being 35 wow crazy right at FC more of a passing offense. Curry will prob get most if not all of the runs Evans might get a few. I like having Cotton and Buck and I’ve heard Mason Anderson is going to play he’s played baseball and is the center fielder  he’s very fast. You’ve got to get the Oline strong and understand how to block and the steps it takes. Like I’ve said before hopefully he brings coaches with him. Defensively shew we’re do I start at the Valley game you had all Freshman and Sophomores on the field but Colt shelton and will wells. Curry and Swigger at LB will have to step up Huge for them defensively. You’ve got the speed to cover teams. As for the district Fc blew a 18-0 lead vs Leslie. They could get by them maybe martin too. Maybe you run a 4–2-5 defense?? I believe Curry has a break out year on offensive side with him getting the carries the kid runs hard and is a monster. Good luck to the jags this season.
