This is a sad but true statement. I would like to know confirmed applications for these jobs - that way we can know who the recycled coaches beat out.

 

One would think the applications would be open to the public. Go and visit with the Metro AD. I know for a fact that a Ruth. Co. assistant applied for one of the openings.

I know that there are quality assistants in Rutherford County. However, there are so good ones working hard in Metro too! Just because an assistant coach from Rutherford County applies does not mean that they are the best candidate for the job. In my opinion, these positions should be filled with the best coach. If it comes down to two that are pretty even and one is already in Metro then that person should receive the job as a show of loyalty.

Does the Cane Ridge job interest you? I know you would already have a relationship with many of the student athletes in the community.

I never said there weren't quality metro assistants. The best coach should be hired, period.

Yes it does. However, I am certified 1-8 so that would probably knock me out of the list of possible candidates. I think I'm a good coach and could do some really good things with the kids. You are right in that I have a relationship with many of the players that are there and in the community. It would be a good fit except for the certification. Do you miss it at all? What are your thoughts on East Lit and CR?

Not sure relationship with the kids is that important. I've seen some pretty bad coaches have great relationships with the kids on the team.

Obviously every situation is different but most all the kids that have played for workinprogress would have ran through a wall for the guy. WIP, go get certified and have some options when the school down the road opens up.

Word i hear is that East Lit. won't bring in any help for whoever gets the Head Coaching job. CR has talent. I don't know the Prinicipal at CR so I can't say if they are committed to winning or not. I do know that Antioch's administration would be the best group to work for in metro imo. btw, there is nothing wrong doing what your doing and where you are doing it. You are making a difference in many kids' lives.

    • 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.
