Quinn-Chavez 6-0

[TeddyKGB]

Casey Quinn has Chavez 6-0 and atop the SSL. Very impressive considering Chavez has won 22 games in the last 5 years with 6-6 being their best record in those 5 years.
Looks like he's changing things there for the better. Izne you've always said he was a heck of a good coach. I believe if they get by Wasco this week they have a very legitimate shot at going 10-0, Kennedy, Shafter and Arvin are not very good.

[TeddyKGB]

[christhepunter]

Man I hope none of those Trac teams didn't pass on him. Chavez with the rare jewel

Quinn is a great coach, Chavez is lucky to have him, Chavez might be the perfect match for him.

We were just talking about great coaches on another thread a week or so ago.  Like I said there, CQ is a GREAT coach!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   He is turning around ANOTHER PROGRAM for the third time!!!!!!!!!  If that doesn't make you a great coach then I don't know what does.  

He should of got the CW job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  They made a huge mistake!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  Although, I don't know much about there new coach, I do know that Quinn was the best choice for them.  IMO they would be a much more competitive team with him there right now.

You can't argue with the numbers, Chavez has been average at best their best year 6-6 tells me that they went into the playoffs at 5-5. He has already lead them to a better regular season record than they have had in 5 years. Maybe someone close to the program can chime in, did the pop of the school change, boundaries, anything? He's certainly doing something good there. I will not be surprised if they end up 10-0/9-1 and win a playoff game or two.

They were in the EYL for a very long time.....now that they've been moved to SSL, they SHOULD improve, right?

Going from playing Delano, Porterville, Monache, TU, TW, and MO to playing teams that are closer to their demographics/size will give any team a chance to succeed.

Chavez in the EYL for a ong time? diesel Chavez has only played Varsity football five years, I think this is Chavez third season in the SSL.
Teddy is right, you can't argue the numbers, or the coaching.

That's weird.....MaxPreps says Tulare Union beat Chavez 14-0 in 2004........how is that possible? Hmmmmmmm.......????

They're last season in the EYL was 2011.......they've been around a while......longer than Mission Oak......

im wrong, sorry, I think I got them wrong with the other Delano School.
My point was the coaching has changed the whole dynamics of Chavez.

[hardhitter23]

WOW I was shocked when they beat BCHS. I guess they are contenders. Not much to be said about the offense side of the ball however they are getting the job done. I am wondering who is the D coor he is really getting those boys ready to play week by week. Do they have the same staff with the addition of Casey Quinn? That Defense was good last year as well. Great job to the defensive staff at Chavez. Hats off

[theMHSguy]

I got family members going to Chavez and they have told me that Quinn has revamped the whole program. Higher expectations in the weight room, in the classroom and on the field. The kids have bought in and they feel they can compete.   :u: :u: :u: :u:

[theMHSguy]

[valleyfootball14]

To me it is simple, and has nothing to do with wins and losses on Friday nights; at the high school level, Coach Quinn, is somebody who is making his student athletes better on and off the field. That is the bottom line.

At the high school level is it a coach's job to do everything in their power to make their players better in terms of x's and o's, their overall academic development, and better all-around citizens. This way, when they graduate, they can be better equipped to succeed on the college football field, in a college classroom, in their jobs, and in their social/family lives. If a high school coach doesn't have all of those things in mind, then they aren't doing it right.

Eventually, depending on the "buy-in" from the players, parents and administration, the wins will come quicker for some than others...

Lack of support from an administration plays a part as does any other of a million factors but at the end of the day are the kids improving, is participation up and do the results match the effort.

What makes Casey Quinn a good coach? There are several elements to this.

These elements or attributes are presented in no particular order.

First, the kids have to know that you care about them. You cannot undervalue the importance of relationships. You cannot discipline beyond love. Coaches cannot forget that no matter how big he is they are still children and children want discipline whether they admit it or not.

Second, the kids have to know that you are knowledgeable. In the Marines they call it part of your power base. It's a metaphor for the foundations of your image. Once you lose it, you lose the respect of your subordinates. Coaches should be able to explain a drill, a movement etc. and how it is relevant to the game. In other words be technically and tactically proficient.

Third, a good coach must know how to convey their knowledge to their players. It makes no difference the coach to have knowledge if they cannot teach it to their players. Good players don't always make good coaches. Each kid is an individual. Sometimes you have to say it, do it, and demonstrate it, multiple ways and multiple times for the players to get it. Patience, if they knew how to do it they wouldn't need you. If the players are not doing what you want them to do on the field then you need to change the way you practice. Coach Quinn adapts to his players

Fourth, you have to humble yourself. It not about you the coach, it's about the kids. They are reason you have a job. If you are coaching for your own personal gain then you are in the wrong business.

 There is more to it than just what I've listed. Winning, getting kids into college, and being a positive role model are all very important as well as some attributes that I may have overlooked, but the four that I listed are the foundation to all the others.
His staff isn't about their own egos and personal goals.  They are working together as a team to accomplish one common goal. He has had some great coaches in the past like Daniel Budd who is on the same page as him and these coaches can move mountains when they has a staff, administration and kids that are fully committed
Quinn has put his defensive schemes in and is calling the defense as well as the offense. Last few years they've   struggled on defense. The staff is back and are eager to learn and listen

[Draven16]

Coach Quinn has done a great job so far with this team, Chavez last year won thier first playoff game in school history, with a junior QB, they were very good on offense and average on defense with lack of speed, QB was Second team all league and with the arrival of Coach Quinn he was supposed to take him to the next level, unfortunately he was injured in the second game of the season and has not played since. Coach Quinn has been playing with a sophomore QB that was playing with the JV team at the start of the season, Team has not played a game with a healthy starting lineup since the first game of the season, and has been able to install his will and desire to keep competing no matter whos on the field, we have the same coaching staff from last year with the exception of 2 coaches and he has install hes offense and defense philasophy, has change thier practice habbits and weight room routines, hes knowledge of the game is impressive and has made every coach better and every kid a better football player, we are very lucky he choose to come to Chavez to be our football coach.

Wow I bet he was just waiting in the crevice for Chavez to lose. As soon as he heard that they lost reappears like a rat. At least be bold like the New York City street rats. Wasco made the fewest mistakes. Usually the team with the fewest turnovers wins the game. FYI the score was 10 to 7. Chavez defense held the Tigers to 3 offensive points. Pretty impressing in my books. Hats off and congrats on the win.

valley don't be too tough on pump, you have to remember since Kenny moved out of the trailer park he and rest of Kenny's old crew are distraught and lost with out his guidance along with the blood flow to his brain being cut off by his T Shirt that is a couple sizes too small.
Class and winning have never been words that come to mind when you hear the name Wasco, need I remind you that's a town who's claim to fame is overly spicy Chili Verde and a guy named after a stadium snack?

Valley needs to get tough on his hooked on phonics so he can unlock the secrets to reading and writing.

On another note.... Teddy, didn't you go to church today? Remember, God can't change the fact that any of our parents were dirty tramps, but he can heal the pain.

Lol. Sweating like your mom when she pushes her shopping cart around Bako collecting cans and bottles out of dumpsters? Or sweating like the time your mom was on a dope binge and stole all the copper wire out of your family trailer/home? Or sweating like the time the homeless shelter was full and your mom had to turn tricks on the whole staff to be able to get a bed for little Teddy for a couple of hours?

Beat up on them??? I don't think so but I will say that was a very good Chavez team on the defensive side of the ball.  the boys flew to the ball.  Wasco did not execute the way we should have.  5 trips into redzone and major penalties killed them should have had the ball 1st and goal at least 3 times and holding and personal fouls backed them up. and against an aggressive def like that the scores says it all.  Great Job Chavez Div IV valley title is not a long shot for that team represent the SSL and go win it!

I was not there so it is all based off hear say from more then one source. Maybe it was the foot to foot double wing offense that kept the ball moving or the poor play by Chavez offense. Who knows I was going for Wasco to win the game. From what my buddy told me it looked difficult with youth football offense of Wasco to pull out a win with out Chavez mistakes. Like I said before I was going for Wasco the whole time. Just going off what I heard in the Fresno grapevine

Youth football offense? That offense has won and made quite a few Valley Championship appearance in multiple divisions in the Central Section including D1. If Wasco hadn't lost 3 guys to tranfers and 1 guy to injury they would still be Valley contenders in D3. That offense is perfect for a small school. I haven't seen Clovis East hardly have a winning season since they stopped running it.

I like what you did there...say you were for them and then insult them.  Shows your true colors. Wasco will continue to run their "youth football offense" and win games, and Chavez will continue to play great defense and win games, and you will continue to comment on things you have no idea about and win no games. I just think it shows how improved the SSL is as a league.  The league is still wide open into the last three weeks.

Wow! This is such a stupid thing to say. I'd like to know what coach is telling his team prepare for the team you already played and don't learn from your mistakes. Just put the uniform on and win one for the gipper. Way to overstate the obvious! I felt like I just was imparted wisdom and knowledge from the greatness of Knute Rockney. Do you think this is a new statement that no one has ever heard? I'd equate it to saying, "children put your clothes on before you go to school. 1 pant leg at a time!" "Nope we'd prefer to go buck naked."

"One game at a time!" Every coach in the valley.

"It's for the kids." Coach Hurd

Quinn has the kids believing there at Chavez!  Good football team but I will say if your going to stand there and jump around on an opposing teams shield at midfield after halftime you better strap it up and be ready to win that game.  Fueled the fire there and Wasco responded by pitching a second half shutout.

Looking at the box scores, if your going to jump around on your home field at half time, you better put up some points in the second half. Especially if you are a team that averages 531 yard per game and averaging 36 points per game. Wasco didn't score on offense at all the entire game. Sounds like two good football teams play hard for four quarters.

It will be a tough match and from what I am watching, since earlier in the season they have stopped looking at any game as being easy.  This is the first year I have not seen a step down when playing a game that they are "expected" to win.  The game of football is won on the field.  Looking at any area you always see upsets and that is because they want it.  In the last year the boys have taken to heart though a motto that their coach always says which is "Nothing by accident".  I am looking forward to watching the last three regular season games out there.
