who will be William blount next head coach?


Recommended Posts

My only concern is that the longer this lingers on the worse things will be for William Blount next year. Messing around till April to find a coach won't give anyone much time to do anything regarding next year. If there is someone already picked behind the scenes then they need to quit horsing around and get going. Time is a thing you can't get back once you lose it and time is what it will take to get this program going in the right direction. I'm pulling for you guys to put the right man in place but always remember "While Nero fiddled, Rome burned". Quit fiddling around and name a coach. It's not like all this talk just suddenly appeared out of the blue yesterday.

In all honesty, and I'm not trying to put WB down in anyway, what coach would be interested in the job. WB has to play an even tougher schedule this year with the addition of science hill, DB, and alcoa with more travel time and expense. Ridge said in the paper that the new coach would inherit the old staff, so there's no chance to bring in additional coaches. His new boss would be the previous head coach, which could potentially cause some issues. And I saw on the Blount county website that the only teaching job they have in the building is a special Ed job. Every football coach I ever had was a PE coach. Special Ed is an extremely time consuming position and requires ten times the work of a normal teacher.

I had Coach Story for Spanish and Benny Monroe for Drivers Ed.  Yes, I long time ago.

 

Surely, there are other teaching jobs somewhere in the county system other than Special Ed. Does the new coach have to teach at WBHS?  If finding a Special Ed qualified head football coach is a must, it might be hard. (BTW, Scott Cummings at West High School taught Special Ed.  Always admired him for that!)

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
