I hope Coach Layne doesn't leave. He is the best coach in East Tennessee. I wouldn't think he would leave with the talent we have coming back at Wartburg.

 

Coach Layne should not leave but you never know what someone is thinking! Coach Narramore now i really think he is a play in all this. He is from Kingston and even though its in the same district there is nothing like coaching a school from where you live.

I don't think Coach Layne is leaving. Coming back with a group that just went to state, and return almost everybody, including a Mr. Basketball finalist. Also, that is a tough job having to try and compete with Alcoa, Stone, and CAK, as well as Loudon and Scott. Will be a hard sell to an established coach, more than likely will be a young guy, or a middle school coach who wants a shot at HS. Local names that come to mind are Bryan Powers (Rockwood Middle) and Thomas Davis (Wartburg Middle).

They hired a former college coach to head up their girl's team. I doubt they will go to the middle school ranks to fill the boys post. I would think Layne would be a good hire for Kingston and I think he would do a good job there. I also think he will do a great job if he stays at Wartburg. How do you leave a school where you can dominate for one that you will be lucky to finish in the top 3 in the district?

    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job. 
    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf  
    • The administration took the path of backing the coach and whispering to people that the kid was a problem. The reality is that the kid was never a problem on a team or classroom. The player says she has witnessed who back her not saying the f-word.  Why did the coach make that story up and other stories? I am not Sigmund Freud and do not have an answer for the ex=-coach's behavior..  
    • I think they have they coach they want close to being done. I guess we will all see how this plays out. I hope the hire a good one. There are some players in the box for the next coach to work with.
