Are you saying he screwed up the last boys basketball hire?

Well, it would appear so. They fired him from coaching in the middle of the year. Now its not just that hire that people are not happy about. Look at the baseball coach that he hired last summer and had to fire back in what Jan. or Feb. because of his "relationship" with a 15 year old student. Skipper has not brought in either quality coaches or people. He cant seem to find someone that is both. Its either one or the other it seems.

Would the football coach be considered a bad hire? Didn't he have some baggage with him when he came from Florida?

I am not sure about the football coach. I have never heard anything on him. If there was something, if his hiring doesnt work out, Skipper cant be blamed for all of that. There was a very large committee that was comprised of a lot of the local leaders there in Manchester that had a hand in that decision. That is not squarely on Skippers shoulders. The others from what I have heard has been Skippers doings.

my thing is why go through all the trouble of interviewing and wasting people's time if you knew who you were going to hire? that is so much mickey mouse. i hear there were at least 4 top notch coaches who applied but the ad selected maybe 3 or 4 with very little experience to make william's hiring seem legit. just offer the guy the job up front if that was your intention in the 1st place. any word on what douglas will do? I hear he applied at tullahoma.

why would we want him if he's not a "quality coach or person" and has failed at two schools..lol!

I dont know that he is not a quality person. I would think that he is a quality person because they allowed him to keep his teaching spot at Coffee Co. after they removed him from the basketball program. Who knows about his coaching for sure, the surface looks bleak, but it wasnt like he had a ton of talent to work with at Coffee Co, so who knows for sure.

no offense but when was the last time t town made the state or had a winning season? you haven't exactly hit a home run with your hires the last several years. I say he winds up as an assistant someplace...only problem will be his physical education certification...not many jobs with that out there.

    • Ouch! If he's in the scrap business maybe 
    • That's a nice story but has little to nothing to do with what we're talking about. 
    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
