Do you remember Bentley’s “success” at Div II PC? 10-13? HS Boy Wonder. Much like Jake.is a great model for us. We need to spread people sideline to sideline And end zone to end zone. Then run in the space created. Like Kendal Briles.
I just don’t know if Champ wants to potentially hitch his career to someone who’s never called a major college game.
While 'twasn't aimed at me, I'll openly admit that I haven't the slightest clue, muchless "recollection"!! Care to enlighten those of us that are guilty of such blissful ignorance??!??Do you remember Bentley’s “success” at Div II PC? 10-13? HS Boy Wonder. Much like Jake.
Worse record in year 2 than year 1. They were not good.While 'twasn't aimed at me, I'll openly admit that I haven't the slightest clue, muchless "recollection"!! Care to enlighten those of us that are guilty of such blissful ignorance??!??
TIA!!!
I don’t think PC won a single game in 2009 the year after he left. 0-11 or 0-10 how ever many games they played. So winning 10 games in 2 years prior maybe not be too shabby. Who knowsDo you remember Bentley’s “success” at Div II PC? 10-13? HS Boy Wonder. Much like Jake.
Just mentioned to somebody else they didn’t win a single game in 2009 the year he left.Worse record in year 2 than year 1. They were not good.
All those "breaking school records" sounds like Roper at Duke....his bio reads the same. Problem is PC was worse in year 2 of his tenure. And their is nothing special or innovative about his offense....it is a basic HS spread offense. He is not another Malzahn...or Morris for that matter.http://www.gobluehose.com/ViewArticle.dbml?ATCLID=1152409
No one is asking him to be the hc....just know that the man knows offense...
Oh roper had qbs at duke throwing for over 600 yards in a game..had duke at 3rd in total offense...lol....yep nothing special about that...smh..All those "breaking school records" sounds like Roper at Duke....his bio reads the same.

His QBs set passing records and total yards records at Duke, yes.Oh roper had qbs at duke throwing for ovwe 600 yards on a game..had duke at 3rd in total offense...lol....yep nothing special about that...smh
All we need is Coach Boone. 6 play playbook, split veer. Just like Novocain it always works, just give it time.His QBs set passing records and total yards records at Duke, yes.
Hey, I know that offense well. Heck, I could coach it...sign me up!All we need is Coach Boone. 6 play playbook, split veer. Just like Novocain it always works, just give it time.

Yeah when he was at West Virginia. My comment on the veer was a line from a movie.The veer was a succesful offense for teams that didnt have a strong line. Bobby Bowden got his career jump started using it
Bobby Bentley, was not a bad coach at the college level. But coaching the Blue Hoes was like a successful retail manager trying to run a Kmart. Presbyterian refused to put money into the program, and the AD there was nothing but a puppet! It's hard to build a program anywhere, when you have no support from those at the top. I don't care how good of a coach you are. Nick Sabin would of failed at PC-just look at the records after Bentley left.Do you remember Bentley’s “success” at Div II PC? 10-13? HS Boy Wonder.

Herman Boone, TC Williams High. Good friend of Jeffries.Yeah when he was at West Virginia. My comment on the veer was a line from a movie.
This is true.I don’t think PC won a single game in 2009 the year after he left. 0-11 or 0-10 how ever many games they played. So winning 10 games in 2 years prior maybe not be too shabby. Who knows
Not starting. PC played Newberry for the Bronze Derby for many, many years. They were moving up a division when Bentley was coach.This is true.
Wasn't PC just starting their football program with Bentley being their first HC? Some people might not know that, and a lot of start up programs take years and years to build, many going winless for long stretches.
Gotcha, thxNot starting. PC played Newberry for the Bronze Derby for many, many years. They were moving up a division when Bentley was coach.
Do you think maybe Cutcliffe was calling the playsOh roper had qbs at duke throwing for over 600 yards in a game..had duke at 3rd in total offense...lol....yep nothing special about that...smh..
Just what I've heard from HS coaches who coached against him and with him. He is not highly respected among his contemporaries unlike other even more successful coaches. Some of the things I heard were third hand through friends who work with or know those coaches, some were first hand. Never heard much good about him. So, yes, I guess there is a bias built up over the years. I wasn't happy when we hired him....especially for the reason we supposedly hired him.Rogue, your posts always seem to have a personal bias against Bentley and you always posted support and argued for Roper, until right here at the end when he was canned. Maybe your opinion of Bentley could be wrong as well.

Oh you better believe they respect him! They may not like him, but that's because he beat the brakes off of them, for many, many years. People are jealous of success especially at the level that Bentley attained!Just what I've heard from HS coaches who coached against him and with him.

How people still don't realize this blows my mindDo you think maybe Cutcliffe was calling the plays
Doesnt tell the whole story. He got no support at PC from the admin. Thats why he left. He knew he couldnt win there and surprisingly took the high road when he left. His offenses were pretty dang good there, broke records if Im not mistaken. I dont know if he's the answer or not but PC isnt a good barometer.Do you remember Bentley’s “success” at Div II PC? 10-13?

LOL. Then Gutshall and Miller and others should be disliked more as they have won more and are more dominating....and they are not. Both are highly respected. Bentley is way down the list of top HS coaches in this state. Your answer also does not address the fact that many of those who coached with him do not like him or respect him. Your answer is the old Byrnes' fan canned reply....which does not hold water.Oh you better believe they respect him!

His offenses broke school records in passing yards and total yards, but like many, if not most of those old NAIA teams like Newberry, for most of their history PC was a run first team...old school triple option, veer, etc..Doesnt tell the whole story.

Gutshall has 2 state titles at Dorman and Chris Miller had 1 at Broome, before he was handed the keys to a Cadillac at Byrnes high school, where he won 3 more titles, coming off of what Bentley built! Miller has one more title he's won at Spartanburg, by running the system he learned under Bobby Bentley at Byrnes! The man won 4 straight titles, and would've won (many more) if he would've stayed on the high school level. He took Byrnes to heights no other school, can claim from this state; South Point is getting there but not on the same wavelength. Gutshall is a good coach, as well as Chris Miller, but they are not as good as Bentley!LOL.

If ya'll want to know about Bentleys ability to win football games, ask Marcus Lattimore! Or any ofI can't believe people are lobbying for Bentley as OC while his son is a QB here. Especially after all the bitching about nepotism at USC.
Disagree. They didn't recruit like Bentley.Gutshall has 2 state titles at Dorman and Chris Miller had 1 at Broome, before he was handed the keys to a Cadillac at Byrnes high school, where he won 3 more titles, coming off of what Bentley built!

Gutshall is a good coach, as well as Chris Miller, but they are not as good as Bentley!
Name the players that we're recruited by Bentley?Disagree. They didn't recruit like Bentley.
Bentley didn't recruit, there were a few players that transferred in, but Byrnes never went out recruiting them. They didn't have to when over 250 players, came out to play every year!correct....
