HardTackle seem to just be a blabber mouth , he knows of no facts . What CR has done has been nothing less than impressive and he also doesn't know the history of proven coaches . These coaches have been successful coach / coordinator 

Williams, Woods, Broome, Gore, Page , Fitzgerald. Several 

From the names mentioned that are finalist none have been proven coaches 

Already did when they fired Williams and to top it off interview the guy that backstabbed him. Great leadership and examples Metro. 

Don't know him since he is an outsider but Good for Antioch. Hope it works out for them this go around ,now on to Overton and from the names chosen I don't think this will be a good hire 

It's a shame and a cluster at both places

A good coach is just that. I could care less of color. I would gladly have my kids play for Gore and I would just as gladly have them play for Mose Phillips. Both good coaches. I could say the same for bad coaches. 

I agree ... Race shouldn't matter if the guy can get the job done. I've been on staffs with a melting pot and they all did darn good 

Principal hired him as a favor from her admin which is buddies with this coach and game him the weight room and told him he can coach football. Williams didn't hire him. We are all outsiders in this but these are facts . Once again I don't know the guy and I think highly of STEVE O. From my understanding he hasn't been coaching long and hasn't had a bigger role such as a coordinator but thinks he can run the show that baffles me. Like previously stated I know you don't want to believe it but these facts came from very strong sources and it's been getting around. You reap what you sow. Nobody wants someone like that around . Good luck to Steve he will be bounce back . 

Antioch is a good start up job and could be good down the road with the demographics moving in

Hillwood principal is one to work for, he cares about athletics. Can't wait to see his hire...

Workin I know you don't want to believe it ... The fact that no name was mentioned speaks volumes to me. You guys don't want to believe it. The fact that Mr. Brown came and put his 2cents in it as well speak volumes. Truth is the truth. Backstabbing is backstabbing no matter who you are, it just isn't ethical and I'm sure of this information, so it's really not a rumor. If Williams was asked and he was 100% truthful about it then we all would know but he is a good guy and may turn the other cheek. A guy comes in on his staff not hired by him and does sneaky stuff year in and out to try and get his job that he isn't no where near qualified for is as shady as it gets . I don't know the guy but you really don't want to after you hear all this . It's really part of the problem at Overton . Staff not in the building and stuff in the building trying to push him out .

 I thought Steve a good job. Many games could have gone either way. I think having to many coaches from outside made it difficult. I never heard or noticed any coaches not on board or coaching any way other than the way he wanted.  I thought the coaches were behind and supportive of him. 

Isn't that ironic that you would think that, strong rumors/ facts have been released that he was helped pushed out by a staff member hoping to take over . I don't think someone would make this up with such reliable sources But I understand why you would say that. 

Steve did all he could there. The talent isn't flowing like it was when we were growing up. Overton will not be the respectable program it once was, especially as long as it has coaches on the staff backstabbing the head coach for his job. Antioch search is taking too long which forces me  think they will have to settle for someone that don't want.

Sub par coaching record, there is no way he was the best candidate. 

The school systems have caused this issue. There is no repercussions allowed in Metro schools .. there is always a law / rule to keep students out of trouble to improve graduation rates.. kids have to darn near kill someone to get expelled.. other countries don't have these limitations. If the kids act like this in the building do you see the struggle to instill discipline outside of the school day . Not making any excuses just stating, it's not as easy as these county schools have it . Metro has some good coaches better than some of these county schools they just face many more battles that other coaches don't have . Granted it is still mandatory in football and some metro coaches struggle with it .. such as east , Antioch , and Overton from what I hear. All 3 should have new coaches

I guess your coacht patrol and you just pulled out your flash light? Why dont you put your name in the hat since you got all the answers. Not trying to be ugly but come on man.

Im retired.. but believe me I would do a way better job and have some structure . Tell your coach to step down and take the Antioch job he has wanted for years so someone can at least make the EN program respectable

So..Let me get this straight.

1.Coaches can't visit middle schools games that's not a feeder school."Most of the current coaches at most inner city school here grew up in nashville"

2.Coachs can't like a picture on social media

Keep listing also middle school tours is common since schools like Maplewood,WC,Maplewood,PC etc all have academy's attached to there names.

Check there's and ours...Some will say they have the best RB in metro/top 3 in midstate "left for murfreesboro" with a nice size OL and a nice QB and WRs. "See the other trend" I can name some metro schools who has more talent and D1 kids then us. Akers sure you hit them with the same energy .If you so tired of seeing us talk then dont reply or find another site cuz we gone keep on talking and as the slogan says PcVsEverybody. We show love and we get love back but haters make the world go round  Imagine that. At the end of the day it's about the kids. Mane yall old folks crazy

I support all metro but there was some truth behind the DarkKnight messages. PC should have a couple Gold Balls since Fitz leaving, some of the best talent in all of Nashville . I as well have seen you guys at non feeder school games but I understand, that's the game being played now of days. I believe there are some good coaches at PC but their talent does carry them some times . I have also heard there is some mutiny on the staff trying to throw Brunetti over board . If so that is horrible and shows a lack of loyalty. Sometimes the grass isn't any greener on the other side .  I wonder if that's why he applied for Gallatin.

My problem is with you guys is why every school who wins recuits? Let's be real any predominantly  African American school will have Athletes and with the right coaching will win. You cant go on any trend on coacht with schools  Who consistently wins and people are not talking about recruiting. Nashville, Memphis, Summer county,Blount county,Alabama,Georgia,Florida. Its Starting to give me a headache just like everybody's always complaining about the refs when calls don't go their way. 

Shessshhh I've been gone for a minute and its heating up . I agree with you but come on man , you got some nerve. You guys are in my opinion the most disappointing program in Metro . I don't know of any quality coach over at EN. Not trying to be ugly but you guys are disappointing year in and out. I think its time for a new face there .

Interesting.... I was told it isn't Williams choice . He can do it or they will, Stratford goes after  2 alumni , one may be in Sumner though. Mcg is possibly opening .

I like the way fork talks . It's funny but very good substance in it . Basically saying East Coach to Antioch. Why in the world would he do that . Who is in love for Overton and since Stratford coach is an interim does he keep if after the job he just did or will an alumni down the road return ?

Wonder if they both were forced to resign 

Who goes after that job? Just heard Overton will be open as well, anybody else here that? 

Oakland dominated this game. Congrats to them. Doesn't hurt they got two big time transfers. Way to use those programs over schools don't have .

I think this would be a great fit. Big Fan of Chuck, think he would do well there. 

I agree there are some lazy young coaches and some energetic older guys . They just need a good coach that don't mind building and putting in the time

 the downfall of antioch started when shawn joseph took over metro schools. he brought in keiva wiley as principal and her short tenure resulted in the systematic tearing down of everyting good at antioch.  it is a shame that someone as unqualified, idiotic... could have the disastrous impact. her reach has now impacted overton because the guy she hired to replace wood has absolutley no control or anything else that a football coach needs... she had no reason to fire wood who won 3 games in his first year back. this after i believe antioch had lost around 15 games in a row including an 0-11 campaign the year before. 

That's not true , it's all these principals from out of town that don't value athletics that was before Joseph .. look at CR she value sports and look at their program.. look at HL, WC, Overton, Antioch  all declined cause of poor admin. 

I agree with Hurricane , fb247 you're a disgruntled person. Always upset or have an issue with all these metro programs but fail to mention any private schools or OAKLAND or Blackman . That just seems odd and you only focus on a certain demographic of coaches . That's truly shameful guy get a grip and move on . If you're not from metro or coach in it then I don't understand why you are so concerned . Must be on a losing staff like it was previously stated . 

On another note , Congrats to all metro teams in the playoffs . This is where it really matters .
