The job is posted for a minimum of ten days. It will stay open until it is filled. I have been told that there are between ten and twenty applicants of whom several are still coaching in the playoffs and a few who were put out in the 1st round. As to the question of Gary Rankin. From the time Mr. Paz took over as superintendant up until now, Gary Rankin has been contacted every time there has been an opening and has said he is not interested. Money has never been a reason. Other name coaches have expressed an interest into coming here but refuse to move to Warren County. It has always been the policy to have head coaches live in the county. Shows a committment to the kids and program. I think we need to let the process take it's course and get a good fit for our program. Everyone on this board is concerned and has nothing but the best intentions for Warren County football, but we need to put a little faith in the AD, Todd Willmore. He has many contacts throughout the state and will no doubt get quality coaches to apply.

Money will always be an issue! With what the head coach and assistant coaches make as supplements is pathetic. That is why good coaches "look" but have no interest in WC.

I am curious now. please tell us who the "good " coaches are that have looked here and not come because of money. Who they are would be a fact that everyone should be made aware of if we are going to try to fix our problems. Carlton Flatt is the only one I can remember who WC could not come close to on pay. He was making over 100k when Mr. Paz talked with him several years ago.

We all know that Rankin is out, but who should we hire? Should we hire from within, hire a hometown boy that has been away, or bring someone from the outside? Also will this new hire get to bring in an entire new staff? I do know a person that would be interested in coming home if he could bring in a new staff. What is everyone thoughts?

I don't see the new guy (whomever it ends up being) getting the chance to bring in a new staff. I too know of a former alum i would like to see back here at the helm of the high school program, but after talking to him, i see he's goign to ask for to much lol... i guess this off season will show just how bad this administration wants a winning program. don't look for many teaching positions for this new staff. i'm pretty sure the new basketball staffs filled everything we had available.

Not sure who current staff is but I would think that any non tenured staff members will go and all openings where a retirement takes place would be available for assistant coaches. I have heard that all current staff will have to reapply for their coaching jobs when the new coach is hired. None have coaching job security.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
