Been around High School football in Blount County for over 40 years. This is my opinion on the William Blount coaching position. I think Nick White should be hired. I think with Nick you have someone with a history and ties to William Blount. I think Nick could get the whole community behind the football program again. I think Nick would be the perfect fit , let him bring in his own coaches and i think you would see a coaching staff that is willing to work hard to bring William Blount football back to where it will compete for Region Championships. I believe Nick is in coaching to help young men get better at football and not for the money. With the talent that William Blount has coming back a decision needs to be made quick so that the new staff can have time for spring practice. I will not get into the politics of the Blount County School Board. Well maybe just a little, if the board does not step up and make a commitment to the sports programs in the County , they should be voted off. I live in the County and I have a vote. This is just my opinion.
