Now we'll never get recruits from Jackson Academy****

[BeastMan]

Do your time in the state system, get your retirement and get an academy gig. Not too shabby

[Coach34]

No shit- Pogue is pulling down over 100K per year now between retirement and salary. Good for him

What you think JA pays, 75k-ish?

He will make 65-70K or so is my guess. Could be a little more. He is a good defensive coach and should do a good job.

Good for him. They have been down a while.

Calling Pogue a good defensive coach is a farce. I’ve never seen a coach suck the life out of a team like him. Good luck to JA. Just my opinion, but I played for him for a year. Couldn’t hold the jock strap that held Ted Taylor’s left nut.

JA, where you go to compete against 2 other teams

Jackson Academy is in a tough situation. Several potential players live in Madison. With MRA becoming a viable option for Madison residents and the normal amount that Jackson Prep gets from NE Jackson the talent pool for football has become much smaller.

Man, Ted Taylor was an incredible defensive coach. Love that guy

This is a good hire.
