Dewayne Alexander to Mt Juliet?

Rumblings indicate that Coach Alexander may be the next head coach at Mt Juliet. What do you think?

Not a chance!! It took Dewayne 3 years to build WC into what it is today. I don't think he'll leave his troops to go across the street to coach. Nothing against MJ, but I don't think that will happen. Besides, what is the deal with Crawford? He's a good man from what I hear (That came from several of his troops last spring). I wish him the best no matter what!!

The only reason he even considers it is to get away from the principal at Wilson Central. That is the reason he was going to leave after last year. Mt. Juliet has one more year in 4A and then it is back to 5A.

I heard a couple of weeks ago that the administration had not followed through with some things they had promised & that there was a possibility he would be looking elsewhere. If this is the case, what a shame!! I don't have to convince anyone at WC what a fantastic coach he is. I know that he has enjoyed helping to build that program.

 

I haven't heard anything about MJ, but I did hear that he may not want to be in a head coaching position due to family obligations. I guess only time will tell.

[getright]

is the mount juliet football position open? hadn't heard that but i guess i don't hear much. if so things are really shaking up fast across the state and i can feel some hot prospective coaches getting their names thrown around.

I had heard rumblings of this from a coach in Gallatin that I know very well. DeWayne resigned last year and apparently isn't very happy this season. Also, remember that the hoops coach over there was 88 out the gate to Antioch last year before the good parents at Wilson Central got both of those issues fixed. Seems like we have an administrator at Wilson Central that doesn't like the "shine time" that Bond and Alexander have gotten. Plus, the guy is a near joke with this "dress code" he tried to get enforced over there. Come on, 16 year olds and their PARENTS staging very organized sit-ins, LOL. Sounds like a guy in over his head. I think someone over at the Wilson County Board of Education better make a move in getting a new adminsitration over there. Trust me, if they lose Alexander, they are probably back to vying for 4th place in that region. I hate to side with a coach over an administrator, but Alexander has earned his stripes over there way more than the principal has. Same for Bond. If those two guys leave, they will never replace either one of them. They had a good thing fall into their lap and one guy is going to screw it up for everybody. Most importantly, the good kids over there are the ones that are going to get hosed in all of this. If I had to give DeWayne any advice, I'd probably stick it out there. I think the WC job is better than the MJ job, even with a bad boss. He's built something special over there and really has a good thing there with good kids and good coaches. I mean, is he going to take Aric, Wes, Howard and the rest of those guys with him?? He's really in a great situation there, Kernagis withstanding. Plus, with all that's gone on, I don't think the principal makes it much longer there. His issues with coaches and parents are well documented. Good luck to Alexander if this is what he pursues, but there are only two jobs in Tennessee that make much sense to me for him to jump to, and one of them isn't open and the other one could be REAL soon.

I agree that WC has one of the best football staffs in middle Tenn., and they all care about the players. If he does leave there will be a line of coaches applying, they have something good going on in football.

Gallatin and Hendersonville have got to be high on the list as well. Both have past ties and Alexander lives in Gallatin.

Good job GWave1, those are the two jobs that would make sense for DA.

Are Gallatin and Hendersonville open?

I think the coach may be playing a dangerous game, you cannot say you are going to leave too many times before someone gives you a ticket out of town. Of course he is not going to MJ unless he has had a head injury, but be careful what you keep wishing for coach.

Sometimes that is the best thing.
