Three weeks now and no-one has applied for the baseball position. Shawn Witten accepted the head football coach and announcement will be made on Monday June 25

 

 

 

How about Danny Clark. I know he is with the Texas Rangers minor league system but why not try to

 

get him? I think his wife and kid still lives in the area.

No offense, Im not tryin to be smart, but would you leave a professional team to coach high school baseball? Even though that is a wise choice and former alumni.

 

That High School job probably pays more than the pro job. Minor league coaches, at all levels, don't make that much.

 

Is Bernie Young an option? Or Dave Rutherford. He would love to coach in HS again.

Hey Wing,

 

I've had a lot of trouble getting on-site recently.

 

Baseball Coach - - - Bill McKinney

 

Basketball Coach - - Marty Street

 

Are these just suggestions or are they the people we should expect to see wearing orange and black next season?

AD and Principal are both out of town and no announcement is forthcoming this week. Expect basketball announcement monday. Street or Smith, depending on whether the "hill" or HS admin have final say. Baseball still up in the air but I will be shocked if its former SH coach McKinney. I say BB is filled within by Hooks or Pierce. There are a couple other outside names being tossed around. Bernie Young wanted the BB job a few years back, and may be interested this time around too.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
