    Going to be an interesting game.  Lebanon is not quite back to the power house teams I have seen there in the past, but they are better than they were last year.  MJ better not take this one for granted and expect to just walk in an repeat last years game.  If they do they just might be riding home tonight with their tails between their legs.

    Lebanon has never really been a "powerhouse"...if you mean the Medley years those kids played hard and overachieved but would hardly qualify as powers...Medley played a weak schedule with Riverdale being his only test...he usually managed to choke against Gallatin and in the playoffs.

    Would you like me to post an image of a savage looking person and say it is the typical black "Chattanoogan"...would that be "racer"...a few would say so...now remember booger...you must first wash your hands before you go digging for worms.

    Being a great player and spending time in the NFL means very little to being a good coach. There are too many examples to list of NFL players that have been a bust when it comes to coaching. Ask Crockett County about it. I wish the coach well but he's facing a mountain to climb out of.

    Been reading the TFP and of course they are trying to make it some sort of social statement which to me doesn't belong in the equation simply because it should be an issue of is he a competent coach. They even mentioned something about 2 Confederate flags flying near the school. That kind of thing cheapens this hire...not the guy's skin tone. I got the idea they(TFP) were trying to demean and mock the good people of Grundy Co. Just media trying to stir the pot. Uncalled for.

    Feel free to add to the post. Things out of line won't be permitted. If you think it may be overboard, it is. Thanks. 

     

    I think this has been discussed enough. The topic now should be is this guy an interim coach or is he permanent(until fired). I would also like to know what they are paying him. Fair enough?

    I don't know Coach Simmons but Im sure he is smart enough to play the way the talent dictates. He isn't going to play the same style he played at USJ. If he does then he deserves to be fired. However, HE WON"T. He has been around long enough to know better.

    Very questionable hire by Haywood here. He did some good things at USJ but it's rumors of some behind the scenes stuff there that took place, also how is his style of play (cutting, running set plays) gonna mesh with a team that knows only one way to play. I hope it works or he's gonna be hired to be fired in a year.

    Questionable indeed. Was at 4 schools in Florida and was gone in a year in each. At Poinciana outside Orlando and left to teach in the Florida Virtual School program. Lots of baggage with this guy.

    yeah. Region 8.

    I mean the entire state AAA will open up for someone else to have a chance

     

    Someone else will emerge in Memphis...my guess Southwind will be back in the top spot and Ridgeway even though Henning should have been fired long ago for his fraudish shenanigans.

    Hard pass on Matta. I'm not even sure why he's getting serious consideration at Ole Miss and Georgia. He's a solid coach, but he's had some major health concerns the past few years, which had a lot to do with his decline (and ultimate departure) at Ohio State.

    Maybe but Matta is a proven coach...Hardaway isn't.

    How is screaming into the student section not winning with class??? How is that comparable to a student section screaming “Levy sucks”?

    You didn't read my post...I said both were bad and I complimented her on her performance and wished her luck. I know Baxter very well and I am sure they are not accustomed to that kind of display. It's just not that kind of community.

  9. I just don't get into the girls game but watched anyhow because of the passion shown by both fan bases. With that said McWilliams is not someone you would want your daughter to play for but if I was into women coaching boys teams I think she could do it. The "you suck" chant was embarrassing as was this Levy girl's "primal" scream at the end of the game. She seems like a nice kid and plays hard...just win with class. Good luck to her at WKU.

  10. Folks,

     

    Out of state coach from the northeast part of the country here. Tired of northeast winters and looking for making a change and looking for area in country to relocate to. Nashville keeps popping up. Would love to live in the city or close by. Any coaching openings currently there that would fit the bill? Any help/suggestions would be appreciated.

    Just a helpful hint. Nashville or surrounding areas would be more open to someone from a liberal area that you are obviously from. Some of these more rural towns won't be as open to you. I'm not being a smart aleck just stating the truth.

  11. It is what it is...if you win the last game of the season, you either were crowned state champion or you weren't very good at all. Being a district, regional, or "sub state" champion is an accomplishment to be proud of, but in the grand scheme it's just a step toward the ultimate goal. The progression actually works. There's no way to ensure that the eight that go to Murfreesboro are the best eight in the state, or that the best team wins the gold ball, but the process actually allows each team an "equal" opportunity.

    Maybe that is what I am really trying to say...the 8 teams that make it to the Boro aren't necessarily the best teams.

  12. Agreed 16 per class/48 total teams isnt feasible at MTSU. It would take a full week just to complete one class instead of 4 days. The schools and state wouldn't allow for that much time to be missed of class or be willing to add that much time to the end of the school year just for sports. As the days from the state tournament have to be made up and snow days etc can't replace them.

     

    Maybe if they made each class at a different location and run them concurrent then maybe but that isn't going to happen.

    That is the idea...hold it at different venues. I know it is far fetched but I just don't like the "sub state" tag...it is the first round of the state. TBCH I am not a fan of the state setup in the first place...never have been. I also think district tournaments are a joke...they should have been done away with long ago.
