Tennessean announcing in the morning's paper it's David Pack.

Crap....anybody but the Rebels. /mad.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":angry:" border="0" alt="mad.gif" />

 

wow!

A quote from Obi-Wan Kenobi comes to mind:

 

"I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."

Come on now, CPA. Why all the angst ? The word is they are going D2 small in a year or so so you guys will only have to face one another maybe one time. I would assume, however, that the competitive field for students wanting a Christian based education in 37215, 37205, 37207, 37064, and 37220 just got a lot more interesting and tighter with today's announcement.

Yes it is official....David Pack will be leaving Ensworth and taking the Assistant to Head of School and Head Football Coaching Job at FRA. Its unfortunate for Ensworth to lose such a great coach when their program is developing fast, but we wish him the best.

I just wonder how much "angst" there would be if the coach from Maryville left and took the job at Alcoa?

Probably quite a bit of "angst". /laugh.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":lol:" border="0" alt="laugh.gif" /> I am shocked at this development. Evidently...FRA is about to upgrade their program. I would think DII is definitely in their future. With their tuition what it is...it would seem a logical move for them.

Great hire for FRA. Pack is a very good coach and the guy has a lot of personality. He reminds of a Bruce Pearl type who can really sell the program. This is a huge loss for Ensworth--they lose a defensive coord. and a girls basketball HC (a very good one).

[wingman10]

FRA hit a homerun with this hire.

Hate this move for the rest of 5AA, I thought Pack did not want another HC job??

BTW, they are the Panthers now, remember?

robjim gets confused sometimes. They were the Rebels then the Big Blue (whatever that is) and now Panthers.

 

I wish the best for David.

I don't think there's any doubt he will turn FRA's program around given the necessary support. I find it difficult to believe he would have taken this job without some sort of reassurance of complete support.

I have known David for many years...he will do well at FRA. A loss for Ensworth, gain for Franklin Rd. The football team might not win anymore games than in the past, but moral will change and the school will feel good about their product.

 

Good luck David
