Still lives in East Brainerd. Goes to Cleveland. Not sure how.

When and if they get turned in, TSSAA will investigate. You can't live in East Brainerd and play at Cleveland can you? Bona Fide change of address? Has an athletic record at another TSSAA school? TSSAA Handbook, P. 16, Section 12, a. & b. They may win Region tournament easily but wouldn't it be a shame to have to forfeit it if he was reported after they played it?

Can a Non-faculty coach, coach the teams AAU team or Spring Team after the season is over? The non-faculty coach is considered the assistant coach of the school's team.

I know. It hasn't been mentioned except in the write up of the Red Bank game saying that he wasn't there. I was just wondering since I have a student there!!

Does anyone know when Hixson's coach will be able to coach again since he was suspended?

They haven't won but 1 game this year and haven't even started their district games which will be difficult. What is going on? This is the coaches 3rd or 4th year. Shouldn't they be winning by now? Usually a program is in place by the 4th year and teams are usually successful. I just don't get it.

I assume Cookeville is on Central time. What time are the games? Is 7:45 central time or eastern? If eastern, that would be 8:45 Chattanooga time, right?

So are you saying the new Coach at Hixson is not a good man or a good Coach?

So no one knows anything about this hire? Just looking for information. Anyone?

Does anybody know anything about this hire? Apparently the guy came from Centennial but never won up there. Did he just not have players? I know that is a good area as far as basketball and isn't Centennial a big school? One time I read the athletic director at Hixson says he has had a winning record everywhere he has been but a newspaper said he left because of a 26-34 record. That is not winning. Sounded like to me he is coming home and is a hometown hero that is glad to be back home. The news talked more about what he did in high school and college instead of what he is going to do for Hixson. Just not sold that this is the right hire. Hixson hasn't had a winning record in 5 years, why hire a coach who hasn't had one in ? years? Not knocking this guy, don't know him, but was there not anyone more successful that applied for this job? Does anyone from Centennial or the Franklin know about this coach that can shed light on his coaching skills?

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?

Yea. I think that was his name. They were pretty consistent when he was there. Don't know if he would actually come back but if I was them, I would at least try and go after him. Where is he at now anyways?

Bring back the Coach that was there a few years ago. He knew how to win. Won over 200 games and 3 district championships.

Hixson gets beat by almost 40 last night. Are you kidding? Now is the time that you should be playing better at least and getting into rhythm and playing together to get ready for the district tournament. Definitely not happening here. Last night was horrible. Can't win if team is centered around one player only and no one else is contributing or allowed to contribute. Definitely noticed last night after watching, it is the coaching. TERRIBLE! Didn't have team prepared, didn't know what to do or when to do it. I answered my own question about what has happened to Hixson basketball.
