Yes they had good teams and I thought he was a class act. The district was being held there one season and a player was injured in the final, he and an asst went to the hospital and waited until probably 10 or 11 with her family and coaches until it was confirmed she would be ok. There was an incident where he was falsely accused of racism there so I dont know if he would want to go back or where he is now.

Him going to the hospital sounds like something he would do. The incident you are talking about was a bunch of lies. Talking to a guy about that the other day when Eller's name came up. He said that it was taken before the board and the truth finally came out. He didn't get his coaching job back but was espunged and is still teaching. The guy said he did well at Hamilton Heights, won over 60 games in 3 years, national champion runners-up and won a national championship the next year. So pretty good. He said he didn't know if Eller would go back to Hixson but would make a good head coach somewhere. Have they hired anybody yet?
