Coach out at Jefferson county

[utsports12]

I saw on twitter where coach Warner at Jefferson county resigned today to take a position at Gatlinburg Position. Am I missing something here. Anybody have anything to offer about what kind of coach gatlinburg is getting and how jeff fans feel about him leaving? I've already heard some rumblings of people unhappy with the hire at gp. What direction will Jeff county go with this hire?

His daughter was already "living" in a cabin in Gatlinburg so she could play for the Lady Highlanders basketball team last year, so no surprise in this hire...

Showing your ignorance again pftigersfan1. The new coach at GP doesn't even have a daughter. How idiotic.

GP is getting a good coach. Who will be the replacement at Jeff Co?

Lots of good viable options around that would love to have that job.

Like who? I can't believe how little is floating around about this opening. Nor can I believe how they haven't even talked to anyone and most school systems have already started. I heard there were some pretty good assistants at Jeff County with Warner. Are they in the running or did they leave the program also?

[tcc1986]

I don't know if the assistants left. I would say Reese would be the top candidate if they stay within the staff. Hometown boy, collegiate playing experience. Seems like he would just assume the position.

need a solid hire

I like East Tenn. Coach Tom Griffin is a good friend... Is it a place that traditionally wins in baseball?

[tcc1986]

They've done well the past couple seasons. Great facilities, great feeder programs, have some decent $$$ and talent to work with. Last season a little down, but they were young and competitive. Previous two seasons they had made it to Region.

Does anyone know what the heck is going on with this job. I'm shocked that, given the circumstances and timing of this situation, one of Warner's assistants were not offered the job. From wht I witnessed, it seemed Warner had a great group of hardworking, knowledgeable assistants. I've also heard rumors of a good ole boy system at work at JCHS. Anyone with knowledge know whats going on?

This seems to be the job that no one has any idea about anywhere...We're all clueless.
