So, in other words Mullins doesn't care if the football program succeeds or not? That what you're saying?

I'm saying Mullins cares more about Mullins than anything, including any sport, coach, student, or employee. SS, we have agreed on almost everything on here, trust me on this one. He's scared to death to hire anyone that could do parts of his job better than him. Very insecure.

Why would he be worried of a coach doing a better job of being AD then him? Isn't a coaches job to be AD. Not saying your wrong.

He's scared of anything that makes him "show his cards". If he hires someone that's competent, well spoken, well liked, and capable of making decisions, Mullins will have to step up and make some all by himself, thats what he's scared of. As of right now, he just imposes his authority making small decisions (many are silly as well), or making decisions behind the scenes and leaving Goins to take responsibilty and clean up the mess.

I don't understand...Why would the AD at a place not do something that would be great for the program? Does he want the program to be bad or something? lol Just makes no sense to me why an AD wouldn't want the team and program to be good?

 

its an ego thing man, thats all it is .. people want to do things their way even if its the wrong way... like gregory at wb... he kept calling the same plays and running the same scheme even though they were losing games...

NOT SOON ENOUGH!!! And H#@LL TO THE NO TO AYDELOTT!!!

Well, Smallridge is acting superintendent right now. He is the man who hired Gaddis the 1st time around. I'm gonna holdout hope that they will find somebody good. Keep an eye on Ron Gray. Saw him @ the basketball game Tuesday, and have seen him at a lot of OR functions lately. He loves the Wildcats.

I wouldn't put anything into that, Blade was at a few basketball games also. Must be one of their teacher duties. Also Gray's son is on the freshman team.

If Mullins cares anything about Oak Ridge Football he will swallow his pride and make the phone call. Don't think it happens though.

 

He will never make that call for the reasons 3wiggle described. He knows who he wants and would rather have a guy with no prior head coaching experience than get someone who can get the whole community behind the program. I'm not sure we can ever get this program back to the glory days that we all remember and want but Smokin Joe can get it back close to how it was and QUICK.

    • 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.
