epperson was hired for the job. but we may wana keep this thread going because it looks from his resume like he doesn't stay anywhere for more than 2 or 3 years. i'm sure he'll stick around here for a few years and collect his wins then move on out. let's just hope he delivers in those couple of years he is here.

Erwin paper says that the 19 applicants have been narrowed to four: Josh Epperson of Cumberland County Kenneth Chambers Jordan Simmons Michael Smith Interviews on Friday. Any opinions on a frontrunner? Anybody familiar with the Epperson guy?

Does anybody if anybody has officially applied for the job yet? If so, who has?

any info or updates on who has applied for the Lady Devil job?

As bad as I hate it, my guess is that we will probably end up hiring Kenneth Chambers, assuming he applies. Even though the baggage is there, he has proven he can win at a high level. Hopefully we can trust all of our elementary principals to disable their gym cameras during the spring and summer for him.

well it looks like the job is officially posted. who will the next locker room referee/parent mediator/pacifier/coach be? any new revelations or info?

The rumor mill is swirling like mad here in Erwin. Here are some of the names that have been mentioned as far as interest in the job. If anyone has any iformation on any of these people (or any other possibilities) and if they are indeed interested, or not, in the job, please share. Again, THIS IS PURELY SPECULATION, curiosity is just getting the best of most of us right now. In-house: Smith, Parkey, Evely, Simmons, Hilliard Out-house: Weems, Unaka's present girl's coach and former girl's coach, Barnwell from S. Hill (used to be with us), Dugger from Elizabethton Again, I know nothing is official since I don't think the job is even posted yet, but just curious and anxious for girls to get someone in place. GO LADY BLUE

has anyone heard any new info on the coaching search? when are they going to open it up and start taking applications? GO BIG BLUE!

From what I hear, Coach Phipps officially turned down the job at the end of last week.

Congratulations to Coach Fisher on a great career. He will definitely be missed. The paper made it sound like he will be happy to spend more time with his family and watching his son coach. Must have been a tough decision to hang it up at point when Unicoi has so much talent and potential. Best of Luck to "Fish" in whatever he pursues next. Thanks for all you have done for our program. So which way does Unicoi go for a replacement? Any names out there yet?

Big win for our ladies last night against a scrappy Cumberland team. Will have to play very good to beat S. Greene. Word around town is that Coach Fisher may be leaving the team after this season? Anyone else heard this or have any other information? Any possible replacements? GO LADY BLUE!
