Any word on the Alcoa job?

[Red Rebels]

I won't miss this game thats for sure. I will be sporting my Marroon and Silver shirt.

 

I can't agree with you on that one reddevilfever, I'll be there but I will be wearing Red and Black. I can't wait to see that shirt though. The Question is, is this the first game for both teams this year or is Alcoa still playing a "Week 0" game. Last year they played in a KY "Bowl" against Hopkinsville. Is that a home and home contract or just a one year deal?

I will try to answer some of the previous questions.

Gary Rankin has been hired as Assistant Principal. His advanced degrees allow him the highest of Alcoa teaching salary(one of the tops in Tennessee).That plus the Asst Princ. stipend , plus coaching stipend added up to a healthy raise.

He has no plans , at this time , of bringing in coaches. He told us yesterday (parents) that he expects all previous assistants to return. Sidenote : there will be two teaching positions open at Alcoa next school year.

 

As for next season , Alcoa signed a two year deal to play in the Integra Bowl @ Trigg County / KY. I asked Coach Rankin about this game and he said he did not know if we could get out of the deal. That may be up to the A.D. The 2nd game will be Maryville.

Coach Rankin this morning on the radio, 560 am stated that their was a possibility that one assistant from Riverdale would go with him, he did not give the name.

[Coalman]

That is possible. There was an opening on the staff that was not filled last year when Coach Porter took the interim Principal position. I believe the interim has been removed from the title so he will not be returning to coaching.

Maryville plays a week 0 game this year against South Doyle on August 18th. Alcoa will be their second game of the year on the 25th.
