AJ Hoenstine definitely gets the most out of his kids and they love playing for him.
You play to win the game!!!
Re: Best Coach
While I respect Bill as a coach and completely agree that he turned the program around, it's kind of hard not to have a winning season with Danny Ferens. The fact that Bill did great again last season is a testament to his coaching skill, but he was blessed with a Heritage legend in Ferens for his first couple years and that probably helped a lot.konjo78 wrote:Hard to not put bill packer and the Penns manor staff in this discussion. Since bill took over on 06 only 1 losing season, His first year and winning records with 1 home playoff game since 2007. Winning multiple heritage titles and a district title along the way with a program that previously didn't have a winning record since the early 90s

Re: Best Coach
I'm sure it helped, but without good coaching they still wouldn't have won. I've seen and been part of some extremely talented teams that none did better than a 2 loss season. You don't win titles in D6 without a very good coach, period. Yes you'll struggle devoid of talent, but talent don't get you up the ladder.

Re: Best Coach
One of the best assistants out there is Greg Gardill. Also who ever is the Tyrone and Forest Hills Oline and Dline coaches.

Re: Best Coach
As a Tyrone guy I pains me to say this but BA John Hayes has to be here. The other you would have to say Brandon Bailey over daddy Don for recent success. Dragons aren't real but their program is. Baker and Hoenstein deserve a nod as well.

Re: Best Coach
Greg Page of Homer Center, you don't win 13 games in a row in the Hertiage Conference without being a great Coach. Also Coach Packer of Penns Manor has had a successful program even after Danny Ferens, both have great coaching staffs.
Re: Best Coach
Is the FH line the product of Ruddeks coaching or Smay's strength and conditioning
Is there a bigger job jumper than Mike Marshall as an assistant, I think he coached over half the Lh schools
Can't think of Tyrones head coach but for 28 years old the program has remained solid
Is mcqueary still around, had heard that he was helping at Tyrone
Justin wheeler is definitely up and coming and has put together a diverse staff
