Lebanon in trouble with TSSAA

Lebanon can not have spring practice this year, becuase they have violated tssaa rules. Read more about this article on the front page of the wilson post.

I love the quote Coach Crane stated. He said he was unaware of any rule violation. How can you be practicing football with the football wrapped in a towel and not think anything was wrong with that or you were not trying to hide anything. Edited by hardtackle

Poor program! Sounds like there is a lack of leadership at LHS!

Is he going to resign or be fired? I can't support a coach who purposely cheats and then says he didn't know the rules. If he didn't know then why did he call it Alabama Camoflague? He also has 2 coaches that have been coaching in tssaa for over 30 years a piece. Did they not tell him? I bet there are some other parents mad too. Especially if my son had a chance to compete for a starting spot this spring. The darn principal needs to step up and force a change before it gets worse.

The principal does not have the authority to dismiss. Power comes from higher ups.

First thing WiseGuy. If I was going to turn him in it would have been last spring when they were practicing in the gym. I didnt realize it was against the rules. Your 2nd comment doesnt bother me because he is a starter. What does bother me is he is missing this spring for something his coach did.

    • Actually that young kid was in an offense that loved to throw the ball I believe.    Biggest problem for MC is if the coaching staff can figure out which mouths to feed at the appropriate time. 
    • Have you ever been in education (administration) or a head coach? You’re responsible for all aspects of your program. If you were not checking the kids information correctly and left it up to someone else and they mess up. You’re held liable because it’s a failure on supervision, implementation of TSSAA eligibility and your school’s eligibility. Remember the wording in the article for him “CONTRACT NOT RENEWED” coaches are on a year to year contract and don’t sign the contract again until July. Do I believe he still should’ve been let go? Yes because you’re responsible for the total program and should be aware of everything going on. Do I believe he knew about the grade changes? No and that’s because nobody brought his name up until things got really bad and there is no indication with any paperwork showing he did. It’s just word of mouth from a teacher trying to cover herself.
    • TSSAA won't ever issue a death penalty, worst case scenario would be a post-season penalty that makes Clinton ineligible for the playoffs for a year or two (I believe 3 years is the most I have ever seen).  But TSSAA only does that in extremely rare circumstances.
    • I just want to echo that sentiment. Coach Woodmore is a good man and he is going to do things the right way and expect these kids to do things the right way. He will help grow them into fine young men. The wins will follow. I think Bolivar hit a home run.
