2008 Coaching Staff

The 2008 Green Mighty Mites Coaching Staff is a group of seasoned veteran coaches, with a slight infusion of new faces. The group met several times prior to the start of the season to review PYFA rules, coaching philosophies, responsibilities, practice schedules, player goals and evaluations, as well as Offensive and Defensive planning.

 

Each coach is responsible for a specific area of the team, and will be dedicating 90% of his thoughts and efforts to his specific discipline. We hope by doing this that (1) our kids won't be confused because whenever a certain coach speaks to them, they'll always be talking "offense" or "defense", (2) that our coaches, by being focused will devote their energy to their discipline, and (3) each coach will get to provide input on kids from a different perspective.

 

If you can't tell, we enjoy each other's company, love football, and really like seeing the kids get better and better each week. Here's our 2008 Staff with a "fun little tidbit" about each individual coach:

OFFENSIVE COACHES

Greg Chevrier Offensive Line

2nd year coach Greg Chevrier is an avid Food Network viewer. He enjoys reading his subscription to "Wine & Cheese Afficionado" while wafting in the co-mingled scents of cedar & tobacco in his home humidor in the off-season.

Kenny         "Kid Rock" Drummond Offensive Backs

2nd year coach Kenny Drummond says he "gets mistaken for a Motley Crue roadie occasionally" ... but to clear the air, he actually works backstage for the Allman Brothers Band in the off-season ... "and there is a big difference."

Jeff Minor Offensive Line

1st year coach Jeff Minor enjoys gardening and chasing moles in his back yard at night with a rake and a flashlight in the off-season. His flaming skunk story is  priceless.

HEAD COACH

Scott D. Vinson

Offensive Coordinator

Possibly the most "offensive" coach on the team, it's rumored that 8th year Coach Scott Vinson regularly consumes handfulls of St. Johns Wort just to moderate his oft intolerable personality.

"I just grind them up and put them on his cereal every morning," said his wife Ann, "I told him it's a new sugar substitute, and he believes me ... the clod."

 

ASST HEAD COACH

Gabe Darber

Defensive Coordinator

   A family man at an early age, 4th year Coach Gabe Darber enjoys the peaceful serenity of a quiet evening at home with his extended family while they all chant hymns around his relaxation coi pond,

He also enjoys his trips to the shooting range. 

DEFENSIVE COACHES

Rich Pennycuff Defensive Line

Don't let this scowl fool you ... this is the smile that earned 3rd year coach Richard Pennycuff "most affable" in his Marine Corps Unit.

Chuck Walker Defensive Ends

3rd year coach Chuck Walker works in the off-season as a part-time Pilates Instructor at a retirement home. "I feel like I've finally found a group that I can keep up with  ... pretty much."

Chris Bolt Defensive Backs

2nd year coach and fitness buff, Chris Bolt, has assured us that he will break the "8-MINUTE ABS" record, by getting the routine done in 3-minutes, making him the envy of his longtime idol, health guru, Richard Simmons.
