"You're gonna be the star quarterback of the Dillon Panthers next year... and you are gonna shine" fire me up holy Coach Taylor best coach in Texas HS football
Even when his world is falling apart , he still cares enough about Vince to give him a pep talk. Coach is awesome . Buddy waiting in the car with plan B is funny as hell too.
What is Buddy’s plan B? I can’t find the recording.
@Calvin Lyons which he turns down so that Tami can follow her dreams :)
This show was so much better than it got credit for, especially in the final seasons.
This scene and season always make me choke up. Coach Taylor's relationship with Vince in the last two seasons is something that always drives me back to coaching. I'd love to make an impact in young people's lives the same way Coach Taylor does.
Thank you FNL for inspiring me to be a better man
He failed luke though. Picked his favorite off rip. Just like most coaches do.
The part that always brings me back to coaching is a few years you might have Jason with everything it takes, and end up with a Matt with no experience. Then a few years later your rebuilding with all all new kids. From one coach to another learning how to teach these kids more than X's & O's is what brings us back, despite the kids situation.
Wish you good luck, Coach
I really hope ppl understand the significance of the devil town song into this show - all the things that changed, more stayed the same. The writing in this show, the music placement, etc was so next level and ahead of its time.
they played it after they won state in s1 too
Can you elaborate more on the song meaning?
This is the perfect encapsulation for Coach Taylor in this show. He was a true father figure to Vince, Smash, Riggins, and Saracen. All of their fathers for different reasons weren't very present for them during high school. Even while trying to win games at a high pressure job, he was always giving his all to support his players like they were his children.
In the end it worked out for coach Taylor. Yes it sucked his program got canceled, but to it made the decision way easier (at least in my opinion) to move to Philly so his wife could become the dean of admissions at a great college up there and for him to coach college ball. Considering how West Dillon treated him in the final year of his contract in season 3 etc. Coach taylor was too good for West Dillon and they never deserved to have him back. They messed up big time
Good points, but the West Dillon treating him bad was more on the McCoys. When the McCoys weren't around West Dillon was Taylor's kingdom. McCoys thankfully left. If he would've went back to West Dillon it would've been like Seasons 1&2 Panthers.
@@jayzee7538 for sure, but those people should've told McCoy to back off instead of siding with him. But they did it because he was powerful and was wealthy. Buddy was the only one who saw through McCoy's b.s. It took him a while but eventually he started to figure it out and was the only one loyal to coach out of all the boosters.
@@greggoldsmith996Exactly. Tammi was right, do you really want to go back to people that did you that way?
One of the saddest yet most uplifting moments of the show.
It's been years since I've watched the show and I'd kinda forgotten about this moment but when Devil Town kicked in I literally gasped. The FEELS. This show was so dang good.
facts.
Devil town was one of my favorite songs on the show
coach's relationship with the boys on his team was so special, he especially took care of those who didn't have family or fathers and needed that male guidance like matt, tim, smash and vince and they all became better men because of it.
I remember when Smash’s mom talked to him and said “I’m not asking you to be that boys father, I just want you to remember that he doesn’t have one”
@@andreyhatleySuch a powerful line. God this show was amazing
That hug is Vince knowing Eric won’t accept a coaching offer again from the Panthers. Rumors were already going around him leaving the Lions with job offers but this was the nail in the coffin now that there was no more Lions.
such an uplifting end. coach thinking about others more than himself.
Isn’t this the same song that they played when they won state in season 1? Great choice.
The east dillon lions getting canceled while being in the state championship was wild.
It was bad writing. In reality, the cancellation decision would've been held off a month after the State Championship Game. One month because it allows the emotions from the game (win or lose) to wear off and then you announce the cancellation.
They were making a point about classism…one school was that if the elite while the other was that if the poor…their success meant nothing and killing their program did nothing but help the Panthers!
Coach was such a good man, he cared so much for those kids. so dang much
I felt like Taylor should have helped Luke more.
Vince was a beast! We can bet he definitely got that shine coach Taylor was speaking on fasho! Wish they would’ve made it a season 6
East dillion had a great football program
After the own our houses line did she say “ hey F off” ? 😂😂😂😂
One of my favorite moments on the show. Coach Taylor is the best 💯
Hey Panthers, how does it feel to know that East Dillon will forever have a perfect record against you?
Well, East Dillon did have a program way way back in the day so we are not sure if Dillon won those....but at least in that two year stretch they did.
@3:02 Even Mac doesn’t look too happy. Not sure if it’s because he knows if Eric comes back, his job is gone, or the fact Eric might be losing his again.
This show is so good! Seen it atleast 5 different times and it is just as good everytime!
You open a school up just to shut it down 2 years later?!!!
The football program not the school
@@Jack-xw6hj they shut the school down too. In the ending montage of the final episode. They showed Vince, Tinker, and Hastings in Panther practice uniforms.
@@PeteMcCorvey yeah that's because they got rid of the football program not the school if they were closing down the school that would have been a completely different situation. But it was only about the football programs
@@PeteMcCorvey I'm pretty sure the school didn't shut down, the Dillon Panthers were a super team of players from both schools
I think the whole school shutdown. However, the whole storyline is nonsense. They would've been granted 5-10 yr grants for funding. Add in Buddy Garrity booster money, for a school or football program to close down after 2 yrs is unrealistic.
"Hey, Coach...."
"Let me tell you something. You are gonna be the star player of the Dillon Panthers next year... and you are gonna shine"
Makes me choke up every time
The cherry ontop of a great scene with the best choice of score I've maybe ever seen!
Where's the clip where Coach tells Smash to go all the way?
Favourite episode in the entire series.
@@rainehernandez8345 it's the best
I’m typically calm and collected guy. Don’t always show emotion I’ll be honest. But this show always somehow hit emotions in certain spots like here during Vince speaking in the office or Mr. Saracens funeral.
This show is the reason why I have decided at the age of 40 to go complete my Bachelor's degree in coaching
How’s it going for you?
Its going good completed my first semester with all A's, got 3 more Semesters to go
Just saw your comment. I have recently had the same thoughts as what you wrote. Been doing current career for 15 years. Time for a change. Im 39 years old. Hope you do well with your new path
@@chrisf4948 still hanging in there should be done with my degree by May or June of next year, gonna do some volunteer youth coaching in the coming months to build some experience. Once I got my degree I'm thinking of substitute teaching and applying for community coaching jobs at the local middle and high schools so I can get some assistant coaching experience.
I don't understand why they didn't chose the lions
wanted to see RIGGINS and COACH hug.....but we never got it for some reason
How the hell did buddy get in his car? Lol
One of the best shows ever
Jess breaks my heart each time ❤
Next year, Vince leads the Panthers to a state title. But after he leaves, the Panthers will not win another state title due to the curse of Eric Taylor.
East Dillon players, fans and alumni really had nothing to be ashamed of at this point, in just two years they beat the panthers which in turn eliminated them from the playoffs & the following year they beat them again and won state, imo they could hang their hats on that knowing they went out on top.
Loved Season 5 but that was such bullshit! The East Dillon Lions deserved much better. Glad Coach Taylor told them to fly a kite with that job.
Dillion is the worst town in America
Does it even exist lol.
@@jayzee7538 literally no, figuratively I am sure.
Pecos texas
Let’s be honest Dillon didn’t deserve either team
Buddy posted up in the truck with plan b 😂
