Who?

I though the rumor was this Hankins guy was getting the job. He was a guy from Lewis county and coached at Riverdale for ah while.

Is that what got the other thread closed? Did someone rumor him for the job at GCHS? He has coached at the 6A level and has served as a college coach. I don't see how naming a possible choice, who has strong ties to the head man, is a "bad thing" that should warrant a thread being shut down.

I suppose that's a rumor the powers that be didn't want out yet.

Right now,Giles has got choose,do they want a big name coach with a proven track record,or do they want to invest in a young gun,who is good,but unproven at the helm of a football Mecca like Giles? Time will tell,but we'll be in the race,regardless of who they choose!

Yeah they will probably make the same mistake the baseball team did and hire a former player fresh out of college with no coaching experience what so ever.

Mecca? .....ahm.....I guess we have now decided to dramatically loosen the definition of the word "mecca".

 

I could understand (maybe) somebody referring to Maryville or Ensworth as a football "mecca", but Giles County? Probably not. Agree they have a good program over the last few years, but certainly not a "mecca."

 

A mecca would be a place that people are willing to travel great distances just to see a game, willing to throw away years of life in another place just to go to school there and be a part of the program or that people talk about over breakfast in other places just because they heard of it. That's definitely not Giles c - c - county....
