GO BIG RED

On another note, it looks like HC has more talent coming in the next few years based on this:

We have a ton of young talent coming up the pipeline and future of HC football looks bright!

 

Back during my coaching career, I witnessed coaches who left a program in shambles and void of talent. Gaddis seems to have left the program at a time when it was not only strong, but likely to become even MORE talented. That is very unusual. I am very much looking forward to the upcoming season, and many seasons to come!

I'm as optimistic as anyone,moreso than most. However, we must remember to not "count your chickens before they hatch" And that "there's many a slip twixt cup and lip"

I have heard James Counce Jr. is coming back to coach with his dad. He also has a son that will be a Junior and is a beast offensive lineman. Has anyone else heard this? I was wondering if it was fact or fiction.

I also have heard this. I understand he is not a teacher. Could it be that he will be the "Coach in Waiting" for a few years? Inquiring minds want to know!

Out here at the retirement farm, the word is for CERTAIN that the coach's son is on board. Many out here know him, and seem pleased. Probably even more pleased that he is bringing a player with him. A "coach in waiting" he may be, but not the norm if he is not a teacher employed by the school system. As far as next year goes, the team will be VERY good, and will compete for the 5A championship in 2011.

Good Luck to the new coaches and hope you guys have a good year

Not being a teacher shouldn't pose a problem. There is at least one other coach at the high school that is not a teacher i think.

I agree that there is not a problem being a coach on the staff, while not employed by the school system as a teacher. That happens everywhere. I was responding to the "coach in waiting" comment. I am uncertain as to the rules here in Tennessee concerning being a head coach in football, without being a school employee. It may be just fine, but I don't know.

This is article 9 Section E which you did neglected to post. I am not a lawyer, but is this a loophole ?

E. A non-faculty coach may serve as a head coach in football, basketball, baseball, girls' softball, and track if

that person has five or more years of experience as a coach at a TSSAA or TMSAA member school and has

taken the ASEP Coaches Education Course in a TSSAA-approved course and completed the TSSAA Online

Coaches Training Session.
