Lenoir City Head Coach Resigns

[HTV]

There is no such rule in the TSSAA that prohibits principals or vice principals from coaching. This, however, maybe a local rule.

 

 

 

That is a decision made by the local school districts/administrations. It is my understanding that an administrator in Knox County can not coach a sport. I'm sure there are other systems that have the same guidelines.

643- I can't speak for everyone but will be glad to offer my opinion on your question. First and foremost, I think LCHS supporters would like to have a coach that is a disciplinarian and treats the players with respect while demanding and earning their respect as well. I think they would like to see a coach that would instill some team spirit and comradarie among the players. A coach that takes the approach that he his teaching 16-18 year olds not only football but life lessons as well. A coach that adapts his offensive and defensive philosophies to the talent he has on his team. A coach that can take the talent he has and compete with most other teams. As far as expectations, I think most people realize you can't completely turn a program around and win 7 or 8 in 1 or 2 years, but you should be able to be competitive in some if not most of your games. What do you think?

How is the search going?

I think they surely have narrowed it down by now, but really haven't heard a thing. They are being tight lipped about this one.

If I'm not mistaken Knox County only has one person left that is acting Athletic Director and Asst. Coach. That would be the great Coach Bob Black. Because he was in that position before the rule in Knox County was put into effect. HTV is absolutely right. It is a System rule not a TSSAA rule. He usually is right though.

Don't tell anyone but, Coach Cutcliffe is coming to LC and bringing Trooper Taylor with him, at least thats what I heard! Of course my source was a Maryville fan.

I don't really get it. I think you are kinda reachin' on this one. I thought Troop was going to Stillwater, OK (Home of Eskimo Joe's) to be the OC for WILD MAN GUNDY. The pay was pretty good (thanks to Boone Pickens). The billionaire OSU graduate oil man. But what do I know, I'm a Maryville fan. Now that's funny...I don't care who you are...a fan of!

Even those two couldn`t perform that kind of a miracle. /roflol.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":roflol:" border="0" alt="roflol.gif" />

This is a message to all of the LC parents that wanted to run Nick White out of town. He is gone now and the supporters of Rebel Football are excited to have him coaching DB's for Maryville next year. He is a good coach and a good teacher and we are very happy that he is now a Rebel just like his brother.

 

Many years ago, I met coach White's dad and it is very clear that both of his boys had very good parents when they were growing up. The supporters of Rebel Football welcome him back home to Blount County and look foward to another good year of Rebel Football in 2008.

C'mon KEV-O, let's start a good rumour. At least give us some hints (what state , area, experience, etc..) As for Rebel, I don't think ALL LC fans wanted Coach WHite gone. He was respected by many and seemed to be a really good person. The Maryville job should be a good move for him. Some Coaches are not made to be Head Coaches but make great assistants. We wish him nothing but the best and appreciate what he did for LCHS.
