From what I remember when we played them this season, they had a large senior class. The QB was as good as advertised but in the JV game against SS the backup threw 3 or 4 interceptions. In JV this past season we beat them 28-8 with what I would imagine would be a lot of their starters for this next season. I think Bolivar is going to be in for a very tough year, they have some talent in the younger classes for sure, but will they be able to put it together, keep it together is the problem.

I know this one is recent, just wanting to start the thread and see if there are any front runners for the spot?

Any news coming out of Bolivar on who will replace Williams as Head Coach?

Any news coming out of McNairy on who the coach will be?

Any news coming out of Liberty? I've heard they have a final 4 (only like 10 applied) so seems like they are working slow here.

If Westview stays in 3A it wont happen, it will be exactly like it was this past year, they will struggle with the top teams (Covington and Dyersburg maybe even Ripley) and beat up on the bottom teams (McNairy, Bolivar, Liberty, Scotts Hill). Then come playoff time IF they are able to push past Covington or Dyersburg a second time, they will have a team like East Nashville waiting for them, then Alcoa. Westview with Ty Simpson (Freshman, Sophomore, and Junior year) in 3A finished 6th, 4th, and 4th in their region. When they dropped to 2A is when they went 14-1 and won the Gold Ball. Not saying Westview will not be good, but I just don't see them doing much in 3A, the only chance they will have will be dropping to 2A again and getting a favorable Region as they did in 2021.

He is staying with the school as the AD, just stepping away from coaching.

McNairy Central

Bolivar, Westview, Liberty, Hardin County, any others open currently in West Tennessee?

I have heard some interesting names thrown around for this one.. Apparently a lot of interest in coaching the young Simpson. I still do not get the reason Neal is out, I would be scared as a coach to go somewhere that you will get forced out after going 37-14 or something close to that.

That just makes me want to know who it is more so! Who is your friend maybe we can make him tell

Anything new coming out of Humboldt? I know they started interviewing but outside of that its pretty dark.

I just do not know who they could get to take that job, maybe a middle school coach who is looking to try to get HC experience, but I do not think they have enough to offer to hire a better coach. They need someone who has a history of rebuilding a program and is ready for a 4-5 year commitment to rebuilding it. JMCSS is going to have to spend money and get a truly competent staff in there as well. At one point I heard that Liberty doesn't have a weight room program, they would go to the weight room and workout whatever they wanted to or not at all.

Yeah I had seen it earlier just waited until I saw it officially!

At one point this would have been a big time job in West TN. Now though I think JMCSS would be lucky to have 10-12 apply and really would be lucky if any of those were quality applicants. Liberty will never be what it once was, and a lot of that is on the school system.
