Upper Cumberland Coaching Vacancies

I had heard that Melton was interested in Pickett, and that they were also interested in someone who's name I can't recall but I think they still have Moons. I also heard that Flynn was retiring. Don't know how much truth there is to any of it.

 

Last I heard, Flynn is still up in the air, but I think he is leaning toward stepping down. That is just speculation, he has not announced.

I'd say Martin is eyeing the Cookeville job if that rumor is true about it coming open (that would make sense location wise). Melton leaving would not be to surprising although I have not heard that (still in the UC and probably better chance to win year in and year out, plus closer to Livingston). Heard something about Flynn stepping down so maybe that is possible (why would he be stepping down?).

From what I have been told about Flynn, It all comes down to his convenience store. He owns the store next to the closed down liquor store at the bottom of the hill. He has been trying to sell it for some time, and if he does end up selling it, he may come back. I know he for sure wanted to coach till his son graduated, which he does this year.

I'd be shocked if Bray left this year. His daughter will be a senior & is a basketball cheerleader. He'll stay at least 1 more year. That being said, I wish he'd leave now. Could have gone much further this year with a better coach. Hope they stay in the program and promote Josh Heard to head coach. He deserves the chance, players believe in him and he makes them better.

    • Couple of thoughts: 1.  I just don't understand all the intricacies in TSSAA transfer rules anymore.    William Blount had a kid that played the final part of the basketball season with them this year,  that played at Hardin Valley last year, and played football for Bearden this year.  I say that to say, I know the coaches and the AD and the Principal at WB and I will never believe they would do something they knew was wrong.  They are men of character.  I BELIEVE the same thing about the coaches and administration at Maryville.  Call me gullible, but these are men and women of integrity in my experiences with them. 2.  Much like the transfer of the Clemmer kid a couple of years ago, with Smith, the football team is getting a huge boost, but the impact on the basketball team will be just as great or maybe even greater.  With Smith playing post, it frees the Sigmund kid who will be coming back from injury, to play more with his face to the basket.  The Rebels basketball squad in my mind, will be "the program" in East Tennessee next year.
    • Could not agree more. After this year, McKenzie's new coach will have their work cut out for them. Staying in 1A would definitely be a huge plus. Most years there is not much difference in the top 5- 1A and 2A teams across the state, but after the top 5 or so there is normally a huge drop off for 1A. Regular season region play is a lot easier for 1A in West TN  right now.
    • Word is Jason Maxwell will be new AD - he is currently head baseball coach. Also heard Roc might be headed to Pope as an assistant coach.
    • you must not know how tssaa operates lol 
    • I agree. A lot more people are starting to see what is really going on around here and how a certain few board members are abusing their power. Eyes are starting to open.
