And just like that....He is the new HC.

He is also a "safe" temporary solution. They wouldn't have to scramble to find someone...they could groom someone.

Actually was talking to a former coach at Fulton yesterday and he said Coach MacMillan was currently running the program in a low key interim role.

I agree to a point. however, if a coach is taking in only athletes (especially good athletes) something smells fishy about that. I thank anyone that helps children when they need it, don't get me wrong...

Is anyone out there aware this is true? Or even close to true? What is the real truth? Surely to goodness it has to be wrong!?

Am I behind on all this? Is Rankin going to South Pitt?

Now a Dad that has an 8th grader going up to the high school next year is saying they coaching staff is charging players and parents $50 and they are promising scouts will attend practices and games. WTH!?

Just curious about a rumor I heard at a basketball game I was at for Scott Co. I was told the coach at Clinton has kids (potential players) living with him under a foster care program type deal? Surely this isn't true right?!?

Justin is He's not a certified teacher...however he does have his degree. Used to work for Project Grad...and in Tennessee with a degree he CAN get a provisionary teaching license and take a praxis test to get endorsed to teach. Justin Long makes a whole lotta sense.

Justin Long. HC at Grace Christian. Was QB for Black and won the State Title early 2000s. Then was his OC for years and won a few more as a coach. Would make sense. I think he has only been at Grace a year or so.

Congrats!

I have heard a few older HC's have interviewed. I also heard quite a few up and comer assistants applied but aren't getting interviewed.

Haven't heard of any actual interviews yet. This probably means they already had someone on a short list.

that would be expected really. It's a tough gig! It will take a coach willing to coach players AND coaches.
