Have all of the changes been made? If the staff is set, who is the offensive coordinator? As for the qb coach from this past season and recent seasons, I think he could be useful in a number of roles. He was pretty successful at South Carolina as a running backs coach. I certainly do not know the answers to these questions, but steps have been taken to try to get the program moving in a positive direction....give it some time.Allen Crowderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595099007495033722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098993612829095983.post-76923062022032234042015-12-29T07:03:03.404-08:002015-12-29T07:03:03.404-08:00That is so True!!!!

Your answer to most of my posts is in defense of a program that cares about money and not players??? Can you explain to us the general public why is it ok to spend money and time and effort backing a program that has done nothing for years!!!! Over the past 3 years Ferrum had a record of 5-25!!! Are you proud of that???? I am not!!!! Tell us because this FC Alum wants to know when the BS is going to stop!!!!!<br /><br />Joe From The Hood!!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098993612829095983.post-70476553597208148222015-12-24T09:18:05.747-08:002015-12-24T09:18:05.747-08:00Best of luck to this new coach.

Both schools are in similar situations/challenges recruiting wise. BUILD and SUSTAIN a program with an identity and vision and this former player will start donating money again. A breath of fresh air on the ENTIRE coaching staff was needed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098993612829095983.post-28936610569933864122015-12-24T02:33:20.932-08:002015-12-24T02:33:20.932-08:00I, as bad as anyone, wants to see Ferrum get the f...I, as bad as anyone, wants to see Ferrum get the football program back on track. Not sure what you mean about seeing the light....Grande from everything I have read and been told will be a great move for the Panthers. Did I want to see Harper go??Absolutely not, but those decisions have been made, and I will support the new coach without hesitation.<br />As for the QB coach, outdated is your opinion, not mine. There is a lot to be said for experience.Allen Crowderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02595099007495033722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7098993612829095983.post-75990577827066285352015-12-23T12:36:07.486-08:002015-12-23T12:36:07.486-08:00Well Allan, You have finally seen the light!!!!

As we all know that there were 2 coaches that were fired from FC when Grande took control which you listed above, but you forgot to tell us fans that the DC Brian Zyglocke is not the DC anymore!!! My source told me this morning that He was demoted down to an defensive coach not so Grande will run the defense and from what I was told another Emory and Henry Coach will be coming to Ferrum to work with him!!!! I have posted over the time of this blog that changes needed to be done and it has finally been done!!! For me I to was sad to see Harper go because he cared about the program but when given the keys he lost control!! As for Grande I do hope that he can make a positive change for the better!! I am not looking for a USA title but better than a 1-9, 2-8 or 5-5 season!!! Ferrum has some work to do left in the QB coaching dept because the QB coach is outdated and needs to be replaced but this is in the right direction and even without your blessing this was done to restart a program that needed help!!! Like it or not homer Ferrum might be able to come back to life with the arrival of Grande and company!!!!!<br /><br />Joe From The Hood!!!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
