SPEAR24 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 (edited) If D-B fans could choose the next football coach, who would it be, realistically ? (sp) I guess if GC decided to hang it up, there's only 2 in the state that I can think of, then you're lookin at going outta state. Maryville's coach isnt going anywhere....ever, so the only 2 that I would ever consider is Rankin, and Ballard.

THSVikings2004 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 (edited) where is Rankin from,Ballard wouldnt be any better Gary Rankin is the current head coach at Alcoa. Was at Riverdale prior to that and I think Smith County before that. Both of those have benefited from having very talented programs as well.

BatmanDB Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 DB has a future Tennessee hall of fame coach that is DB through and through .He wins most of his games but is unlike many of us on coacht,he is not perfect.Your not going to get Maryville or Greeneville's coach,but you might lose a great one in the process that has been much more than a football coach to many of our young men.Be careful what you ask for.

I may be wrong but i think at Alcoa,RANKIN is the head coach, he brought in two more coaches with him that were head coaches at other schools one to run offence and one to run defense.DB keeps Clark as head coach,Carter to run the offence,Jenkins to run the defense now that would get it done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tornado89 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 I may be wrong but i think at Alcoa,RANKIN is the head coach, he brought in two more coaches with him that were head coaches at other schools one to run offence and one to run defense.DB keeps Clark as head coach,Carter to run the offence,Jenkins to run the defense now that would get it done That is not the case at Alcoa. Rankin calls his plays NO ONE else touches his offense it is all him. The defensive coach is Brian Nix who is young and very talented and has turned down other jobs but has never been a head coach. He played at Maryville ironically but IMHO will be Rankin's replacement someday. Gary is one of the absolute best and no one builds PROGRAMS like he does. However I cannot see his family moving further East than the Knoxville area. If they move anywhere it will be back to Middle TN or another state. Plus I'm not sure Kingsport can pay as much as Alcoa. He likes to have him some talent though and won't go anywhere he cannot win. This whole conversation is useless though as I don't think Graham would be forced out and honestly DB is lucky to have him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of Alcoa fans were giving the coaches some flak for their play calling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
