Any word on a boys coach for McKenzie?

Word on the street, John Wilkins is going to Brentwood. Rebels basically losing 2 head coaches in one move. Will they hire separate boys and girls coaches or hire one person for both?  Preston or Drew or a combination or do they go outside the system. Should be an attractive job. 

Went to Camden’s play day Saturday. Bruceton was impressive. They beat Camden and Riverside. Scored runs galore in those games. Pesky hitters up and down the lineup. Pitcher is the real deal. They lost to Henry County but only 1-0. Henry has a freshmen pitcher that can hum it. Riverside looked pretty good. Seems Camden is down some. 

Bruceton, Huntingdon, South Gibson, Lexington, Westview, Waverly, South Fulton, Henry County  

Dont Know much about the bigger schools 

all of these teams had pretty good pitchers last year

???

Never realized it was a rule.  Guess cause every coach in Carroll, Weakley, Henry, and Gibson Counties practices from the time school starts.  Saw a girl in a restaurant yesterday afternoon decked out in full practice uniform.  Plays for a red and blue team about 25 minutes down the road.  Talked to her a bit and she said she had just left practice.  If coaches are going to cheat, TSSAA should do something about it or just allow practice 365 days a year

Gotcha.  

WestTN, not fishing this time. LoL.  Somebody asked me and I told them yes but I really don't know.  Seems like if it is a class then it's okay.  Most schools around here do it.  I don't have a kid in the fight anymore. So I really don't care.

Can schools practice now if they have an athletic period during the school day?  

Hart got the $$$ he wanted.  Good hire!

Looks like Coach Hart passed on coaching the boys, will stick just to Girls. Disappointed to hear that, he would of done an outstanding job at both. Girls will have a great year coming up however, good luck to whoever administration picks as new boys coach.

Sorry for the late info, but Ive been somewhere on a beach, sipping something strong. My understanding was he really wanted the job, but they didn't want to pay him enough to do both.  Could be a Wilkins headed there.

Also hearing Hart will coach both teams at Trenton.  

He was spotted at Henry County today.  Done deal from what I'm hearing.  

Some rumblings in Trenton of Wes Miller to Henry County

Surely they would hire Coach Greer's assistant right?

Heard he resigned too. The rumor at the state tourney was the Henry Co girls coach is interested.  His son will be a 9th grader. 

YES.  Go Rebels.  So proud.

Henry County is open.  

Congratulations to all but especially Savannah!  Great job kid.

Y’all just need a team that you can join practices with and scrimmage and work on things while going full court. Makes it more productive than going against each other. I feel for y’all.

That is a violation of TSSAA rules.  Teams can't legally scrimmage once regular season games begin.

It’s not tough to see the problem.

1. What's the old saying

One of these Wilkins is not like the others

2.  The major recruits haven't panned out to be the players he thought.

3.  Several upperclassmen have quit because of 1 and 2

Is the bench that inexperienced? Looked like only 6 girls played

Unfortunately, there is a sharp drop off.

We looked worn out the 2nd half last night.  Hope we can get some rested legs before tourney time.  

Hoping somebody can help me out with a TSSAA coaching question.  Can a high school assistant coach, coach the 8th graders from their county middle schools during the spring travel season?

Congratulations to Coach Carr.  Great man.
