The Cyclone community owes quite a bit to the 'Concerned Citizens Group'. Man have they 'fixed' everything up real nice for Elizabethton. Some major, HUGE loses in the last month alone. It's not over yet......

 

To Payne and his Vikings....... it won't be long until you are breaking some new ground with SH and DB. Good luck!

I'm just sick over the turn of events at EHS. You guys are right on point. Alexander is showing his true colors. He doesnt care about the students; he only cares about his agenda. He wants people under him that he can control. Lets review what has happened: Pless is on the hotseat in football, and gets promoted to principal, where he will likely do a very good job. Football job open, which is really not a bad thing. But,t hen, with AD job open, Wilson, who is on an even bigger hotseat in basketball, gets promoted to AD. That was a done deal in early spring, even before Payne was relieved in April. Wilson wanted out of boys basketball and made no secret of it. Remember all the info on this board months ago. Payne didnt know it but his lot was cast when Alexander took the directors position. To make a place for Wilson, you demote the guy (Payne), who is getting the job done on both fronts. Makes sense doesnt it! Give the guys on the hotseat promotions and raises and run the best coach you have off. It just stinks.

OK GLee, I will bite. What other changes are on the table?

I know they want Shawn Witten for FB coach, bad; and supposedly offered him the job sunday. No word yet. Fallback position is Pierce, which will not satisfy the masses.

Ned Smith is the likely BB coach and he will be an improvement.

Baseball coach could be anyone. But whoever it is will be a huge step down from Payne.

What else is in store?

Other coaches/administrators to bolt or be Payned?

Alexander to Iraq?

Hiring someone already on the football staff as coach would be stupid. They will still be awful with terrible coaching. They have to get someone from the outside to have a chance. Baseball Bernie Young who knows his name pops up everytime but he can coach. Basketball will not be Smith he is staying on the mountain.
