MIKE BRAMBLETT INQUIRY

Recommended Posts

Hi there folks I am not on sites of this kind very often. However I am moving into the greater Birmingham area. I as a parent believe that private school environments are better suited for my children. Therefore I am taking into consideration three schools in the Birmingham area. Shades Mountain Christian Academy, Briarwood Christian and John Carrol High School. I have looked into the history of each school as well as their coaches. However being that Mike Bramblett is seemingly new to coaching in the state of Alabama I was going to go on this site to inquiry as to if anyone from Tennessee had heard of him or has any past dealings with him as an individual, coach or acquaintance. Please feel free to simply post any updates on here as I will frequently check back.

He coached at Pigeon Forge High School in Tennessee for one year. We played them in the opening game that season, they were a spread team.

 

He left after the year. Couldn't tell you much other than the people in the area at that time were not happy with him from what I heard. No clue why, just what I heard from someone up there.

He left Pigeon Forge in a hurry, and with a lot of debt. They thought about having him arrested. He was 0-10 in football and the baseball team who had been in back to back state championship games, went .500 on the season with a pretty good crop of kids. Left both programs around $25,000.00 in debt.

How did he do down there last year? Did more the previous year for GP's football program than any one has since Coach Hammonds came to Gatlinburg.

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2. 
    • It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming. 
    • No movement on Chester? South Gibson? Gibson County?
    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
