Dyersburg threw the ball a lot more against BTW, but I'm not sure how that will translate vs. Millington.
-
DHS had 17 yards of total offense on the night.

Dyersburg is more than a year away. The current 8th grade group is really good, there are big gaps in the 3 classes ahead of them. The Trojans are a minimum of 2 years away from competing for region titles.

Where is Rudesill going???

The question will be is the next coach Director of Basketball Operations... ???
That title is probably being retired. Apparently Central Office and the JCM principal are not on the same page with head coaches' classroom responsibilities.

I heard it’s a well known West TN coach from the girls side coming to coach Westview boys
Joel Ayers coming back to his alma mater????

Hardin County traditionally hires from within. If they feel like either of the assistants are ready, that's the direction I believe they will go. Good place to coach, supportive community and admin.

Tough job
Great place to coach. School board, admin, and community understand all that comes with being a rural school. Work hard, don't embarrass the school, and you can build a program. Best place I've ever coached.

Congrats and good luck to East Nashville. The Eagles were just too good up front. Dominated the LOS most of the night except for a handful of 4th downs each way. Dyersburg couldn't sustain drives or get stops when they needed.

Dyersburg was the beneficiary of a terrible roughing the kicker call during the regular season matchup. That, plus the fact that Stowe coached teams generally don't perform well in rematches gives Covington the edge in my opinion. Should be a fun game to watch, Covington 35-28.

apparently canceled....

Ayers to USJ is happening. Wonder how this will affect their status in the Insell AAU family.

USJ is hunting for a new boys' coach again. Recent hire took another job.

Joel Ayers to USJ
What??????

Riverdale expects deep state tourney runs, he's never been to one yet. Hope the Ayers are successful, but this is an interesting hire.

Joel Ayers has been successful at both Gleason and Dyersburg. Ashley has her own history of successes, including her incredible playing career and coaching at the college level. They've got a really talented daughter in middle school. Their connection to the Flight AAU program could certainly be helpful in getting players to Riverdale but I don't think it's fair to say it's "just a recruiting hire".
The odds were always against the sisters staying at Huntland. It guess it could happen but them leaving was always more likely
The Insell AAU connections are at play, ladies and gentlemen.

I just heard the Ayers are leaving Dyersburg. Not sure where they are going yet.
Murfreesboro Riverdale. Makes the USJ search a little more interesting.

Rick Rudesill to JCM. Tip of the hat to the JCM administration. Two splash hires to reboot one of the most storied athletic programs in West TN history.

Welcome to the T! Curious question, do you happen to be from Milan? I know the people aren't happy in Milan, so I figured "GrumpyBulldog" fits well for all the Bulldogs fans in Gibson County.
Been here awhile, computer crashed and forgot my old password. Old guy, new account. Not a Milan guy, just a curmudgeonly UU grad.

I just heard about it this morning. Will be hard for a new coach to come in and get wins in this region Quick success will probably not happen. The right guy will need support for the long haul in order to right that ship.
Obion and long term support have been mutually exclusive terms for decades now.
Dyersburg vs Ripley for #2
in Class 3A & Class 4A
Posted
Ripley is solid with a really good RB. Dyersburg is banged up at the skill positions, and line play has been spotty on both sides of the ball all season. Ripley has a really good shot at a win here. Neither team is explosive, so line play will be critical.
