Who cares until they actually start getting in the process

 

I would say a lot of people care. Oak Ridge is a high profile position that pays better then most small colleges. Also, Oak Ridge has the best freshmen class in East Tennessee besides Science Hill. So I would say a lot of coaches would care greatly about this job openning.

 

My guess for frontrunners would be Coach Buck from Stone Memorial, Shane Wells from CAK (doubt he would leave though), Jesse Rodd from Clinton :cry: and of course Stix from Karns :cry:.

So you think Oak Ridge should hire an ASSISTANT MIDDLE SCHOOL COACH to run their HIGH SCHOOL program??

No their just being funny. Oak Ridge will make a good hire. I really feel Coach Buck would be a great hire, I also feel Raul would be a great fit, but he would have to take care of the teaching license thing that gave him problems this past year, Im not truly sure what all it was. Oak Ridge will be such a great place for one of these guys. The young talent is there, plus one of the best incoming freshmen I have seen, plus there is a 7th grade group at Robertsville that will be tremendous as well.

Here is an interesting name for the OR job. Steve Shipley!!!!!! Something to think about for all you soothsayers.

Wow! But how long would he stay? Steve Shipley is great coach, I still remember his Dobyns-Bennett teams of the early 90's. However he doesn't stay long at places, Centennial, Brentwood Academy just to name a few others.

If they are serious about landing a big time winning coach why not go after Ken Cutlip from Science Hill. This guy is for real Great Coach. Just a thought. Probably not even on the Oak Ridge radar. But he would be if I was looking for a great coach with ties to the East TN area. I'm sure he is content in his current situation especially with the returning talent.

I doubt Ken Cutlip would leave Science Hill for Oak Ridge. The pay is about the same (for coaches anyway), great community support, great feeder program, and he's from the area. I think he played at University School. I could be wrong (if I am I'm sure someone will correct me), but, I keep hearing Aaron Green's name as the frontrunner. Coach Buck would do great there as well. In my opinion, should've gotten the job the first time.

    • Yea I agree I will say tho I was a big “ v “ fan if an  opening ever did happen I think it would’ve been good to see him have a shot coming from a power house like Oakland. I’m sure he’s learned a lot from Kevin.  I bet he would bring a really good offense scheme IMO But after all this I just dunno anymore.  Whatever happens with the rumors an such if it did come to and opening I think this messes it all up.  The board members dreams are slowly slipping away now. I haven’t lived there for awhile I just hear what I hear, but my question is would there be any good potential candidates?? That’s why I don’t understand why people want b s out so bad who else could do any better ?? IMO there’s nothing attractive about it? As I stated earlier I went to the last game last year and taking a leak in a porta Potty is pretty sad and still nothing being done they say .. 
    • I have a sophomore that can do 177 (preferred) or 192. Sent you an email.
    • speaking of board members how can a man get arrested 12 days ago and still be head coaching a team in TC school system? looks like your right about the tc board members. I bet it would be different if they had a kid on the team
