Have heard GP is laying the groundwork, and identified a couple of candidates........

 

Can you share any info? The question is not who will they target for HC, but the bigger question is will Goodpasture allow the HC to bring in some assistants who can coach football and also hire a HC who will not be worried about an assistant being just as good as he is.

I heard Derrick Dooooley is interested in coming back to TN. Of course he may not be able to find Madison since it appeared he had a hard time finding Hendersonville when Hurd and Malone were there.

Looks like Andy McWilliams is the interim coach.

CLASS!!!  If you ever want an example of class, you would have to look no further than Coach Mote.  I saw him last night at the game and spoke with him briefly.  I told him how much I appreciated what

.the whole point was, there are privates, and privates make the t$$aa money, so the t$$aa will not want to make them mad for potential pull out and loss of revenue.  

My point was twofold...I know the meaning of arbitrary, but it was a little much to round out your number to 50%. Secondly, only a handful of teams will have complaints with the split...those already in DII will benefit from it. A prime example is USJ...it's typical for them to have a 300+ mile trek in the playoffs as it is, with the split you eliminate that. If the large privates have no qualms (why would they?) now, and the small privates already in DII are bettered by it, that just leaves the small privates forced to compete in DII in the playoffs to potentially be unhappy.

The hold up with small privates is not the football. It's the other sports that have a lot more games and play during the week that are the problem. If you let schools D2 in football but stay with the publics for other sports I think most would agree without complaint.

I don't see the difference between football and the rest, but I'm not claiming to have all the answers...just seems obvious to me that there should be a split. Baseball, for instance...Goodpasture and JCS were the two to beat...multiplier added 633 students for Goodpasture, but they're allowed to compete in a lower division than enrollment dictates, and JCS's first season back in the public division (by their own choosing) after legally recruiting players for four years in DII. TSSAA is supposed to be a non-profit organization with a priority of "leveling the playing field" in the interest of fair play, but their own rules allow for the advantages that these two schools had to exist.

I can't argue against the split as I'm in favor of it.

Scheduling becomes a nightmare for basket ball and baseball if you have to play schools that are 200 miles away in your region. For football it's Friday night with much fewer games.

This is the reason many in Chattanooga haven't gone D2. Now if you just put everyone in D2 there are enough teams in your area to eliminate the problem. The only thing I would add is open enrollment schools should get the multiplier or go D2 also.

i wouldn't want to stop scheduling privates in the regular season, we have some great rivalries with privates.

No schools in TSSAA - public or private - can legally recruit. Recruiting athletes for athletics is illegal. Period. Only difference is D2 privates can offer need-based aid to athletes. I'm not saying recruiting doesn't happen. Just saying it's not legal for any school.

      So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many.

      Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen.

      I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
