Is this speculation?

According to yesterday's paper, they have received about 15 resumes, and another 30 phone calls. I believe it said they are accepting applications until April 5th then a Committee will narrow down the choices for a final decision to be made by the Superintendent of Alcoa Schools.

Coach Olive coached in the Maryville area, but it was not at Maryville. I think it was Hermitage. He is a class act and has a son who is currently a freshman. So if Coach Olive moves, now is probably the time to do it.

He did coach at Maryville. He replaced Emory Hale beginning with the 89 season and was head coach through the 92 season before leaving to go to Tullahoma. He was offensive coordinator at Maryville under Hale. When he left Tim Hammontree took over as head coach in the 93 season. Hammontree was defensive coordinator under Olive in his final year.

I don't think John Olive would be a very good hire for Alcoa. I was at Maryville when he coached there and we were mediocre by MHS's standards. Don't get me wrong, John is a great guy and they would probably still be a perinnial state playoff team but I just don't see him winning the big one.

    • I believe that was last year. I was interested in the Jones vs Baker comment, so I went back and looked at GC. I am not a fan of either nor am I a baseball guru. This looks like to me the duel was not close and if the errors would not have been made Eagleville would have won. I assume you are a little biased. I do think your mph for Jeffcoat and Baker must be from last year.  Baker-85 pitches 67 strikes. 5.2 innings, 5H, 1BB, 0ER and 7K's. 3 errors  Jones- 78 pitches 37 strikes. 4 innings, 2H, 5BB, 0ER and 1K. 1 error   Adams and the UH kid are really good as well. What about South Pitt and Oakdale? I heard they have some good ones. 
    • I hate this for all the kids in the program and fans alike. I can't recall of anything like this before in my lifetime but I'm sure it isn't a first. After criminal investigations are complete and the TSSAA looks into this the program it will be facing Nuclear Winter for some time to come. It's always the innocent left behind that end up paying the price for something someone else has done. I'm sure the transfer portal will be very active in Clinton over the summer months. How could you find a good coach worth his salt that would take on a situation like this not knowing what will happen. 
    • I’ve seen Jeffcoat in person twice and he was 84-87 both times and the one time I saw Baker he was low 80’s, he actually got out dueled by Jones from ER in that outing.
