tistheseason Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Is Allen officially done at Powell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runtheball Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Possibly Lebanon high, Coach Harp is failing miserably.... They do have upcoming talent base off their freshman results. They just need to have the whole program dissected and maybe success will follow. Harp is doing a great job. terrible comment. you have no idea about it.

Landman Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Harp is doing a great job. terrible comment. you have no idea about it. Harp might want out after dealing with all of the distractions you have to deal with at Lebanon. Although they are probably going 0-10, I hope he can stay and get it turned around. Because if he can't do it, I'm not sure who could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osunut2 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Powell is a total mess right now and most coaches would know to stay clear of it. To lose your coach to Karns would be like coming home and finding out your wife left you for the garbage man. Part of the reason Kilgore is now at Karns is the immediate admin opportunity.

osunut2 Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Actually I was told they was going to King's Academy to play for Powell former head coach Matt Lowe Yeah, they did lose some kids to TKA this year. Every Knox County school has to deal with Catholic/Webb/CAK/Grace now, but Powell definitely took it on the chin with all of this coaching turnover. Personally, I think the "issues" that some people seem to mention are overblown. This mess has everything to do with coaches heading out the door. Lowe left for a better situation, as did Kilgore. Rang, who publicly admitted his mistake, was essentially forced out by KCS (not Powell), and we all know the issues with Allen. So out of 4 coaches, I can only point to one that was a total mistake. Heck, I would argue that most of the "issues" are a KCS problem rather than a Powell problem. Realistically, Powell is never going to be able to get (or keep) a guy like Matt Lowe in the future, primarily due to economics. Sure they'd love a "powell guy", but I think the community just wants to see a coach come in who has some potential (like Rang) but isn't going to completely change everything from the top down (Allen). Who knows how Derek Rang would have worked out, but had he been successful, I think it would have been almost impossible for Powell to keep him. If Allen is ultimately let go, this coaching search will certainly be a tough one for KCS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdmiralDude Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I think that William Blount is going to come open as well after this season. Ridge is an asst. principal/AD plus being the head football coach. That is a lot of responsibility and extremely time consuming. I have heard the will be done and is already in the beginning stages of a coaching search. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlcoaBasketball Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 If William Blount is going to be open, tell Ridge to call up Scott Meadows. It's about time for him to make his next move anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onthegrass Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Out of respect for the profession and the men that you are speculating about its best to wait till the job is vacant before discussing them being fired or replaced . Remember they have families and its tough for the wives and children to have to hear this stuff let alone deal with it when and if it happens. You wouldnt want people discussing your employment on an internet site. That being said once the job is vacant then by all means discuss away.
